Just thought I'd recommend these two books. Basic they may well be but for me they're not that easy. I'm currently working through volume one. Some of the phrasing/articulation is well hard! :w00t:
 
Started working with them years ago when I first started playing. Couldn't get to grips with many of them, but of all my books I still come back to them now as I find them really good phrasing exercises.

Yeh, know what you mean. Karen my teacher has me practicing the articulations until they are perfect. It's definitely helping with my reading and articulation and technique. Just done another 30 minutes on this. I am on to a new one which looks easy enough but seems impossible right now.

Having a break from playing for an hour or so before I give it a go again! 🙂
 
I done the 3 book's,basic to advanced many years ago and my teacher would not miss a trick.He got me to do the advanced twice,1st time was medium pased then the last time through was FAST,i mean fast.Spent many many hour's on them book's.Lennie wrote the score for the film BIRD by Clint Eastwood and played on some of the track's.
 

Similar threads... or are they? Maybe not but they could be worth reading anyway 😀
