Title: 15 Low Horn Etudes
Description: This book is dedicated to Sarah Willis for all her work as a low horn player and for being a big inspiration for every horn player.

This is the third etude book for horn written by me, which was fun to do, but also a personal challenge as during the whole process I have been fighting against my worst nightmare. By way of explanation, I find the low horn the most difficult range to master. 

There are many high horn i books but very few for low horn, which is as interesting and really deserves to be promoted. Most times it seems to me, that the great majority of students is simply obsessed with the high horn playing and tends to forget to practice the middle and low register, which I find very unfair as they are amazingly appealing. Furthermore not all low horn books available are exactly fun to play, which  has proved to be another hardship.

The aim of this book is to practice the horn’s low register at different difficulty levels. These etudes use different styles with a strong rhythmic component, some extended techniques and, of course, a lot of fun!
