Dueling Fundamentals: Advanced Fundamental Exercises for Two Tubas

Dueling Fundamentals: Advanced Fundamental Exercises for Two Tubas by Alexander Lapins is appropriate for college through professional tuba players.

The Wiffle Waffle, The Hip Lip Flip Trip, Melodic Minor Mayhem, and Arban Freaks Out are just some of the fun—but make no mistake, also challenging!—duets included in Dueling Fundamentals for Tubas. This book consists of five chapters:

• Long Tones
• Stabilizers
• Flexibility
• Range Extenders
• Scales and Arpeggios

In each duet, both lines are challenging—there is no “student” line and no “teacher” line. Therefore, this book works well for lessons or as an excellent tool for two friends or classmates looking to challenge themselves and each other.
