The Ultimate Cornet Method helps you to improve and maintain your playing technique the fun way.

You'll find 101 well-known melodies, each of them designed to improve different aspects of your playing - think William Tell or Procession of the Nobles to improve your staccato playing, or Nimrod to work on your lip slurs.

There are concise notes on each piece, with hints and tips to make you sound... well, BETTER!

It's a valuable resource for teachers too. With the print-your-own version, you have access to a large and varied source of repertoire for your pupils, and the helpful and concise notes with each piece will ensure they're playing it right! We've also recorded all the tunes with a professional musician, so pupils can refer back to the recordings on the Big Shiny Brass website for help with the style and tone of each piece.

A laid-back, enthusiastic approach to making music... no wonder they're calling it the most enjoyable way to practise the cornet!
