Starting Horn
A beginner horn method designed for real teaching, with games and optional Side Quests.
About Starting Horn:
I’m writing Starting… — beginner brass method books with games and Side Quests (short optional creative and social tasks) built into each level.
The first book, Starting Horn, is designed to keep students engaged, confident, and practising, while technique develops at a steady pace.
Technique is taught clearly from the start
Progress is carefully paced
Games and Side Quests are built into every level
Written to support real teaching, not just to provide pieces
