Here’s what people have been saying about the book!
“The Versatile Trumpeter, Duets Vol. 1 is a fantastic new duet book!! No matter what type of playing you do, these duets cover a wide range of styles and genres in a really accessible and fun package. Congratulations to Josh and Roger for a wonderful addition to the trumpet duet repertoire, and a must have book for all trumpet players!!!”
“My friend Roger Ingram, along with his partner Josh Rzepka, continues to push the limits and has created yet another stellar publication.”
““The Versatile Trumpeter” from my long-time friend/section mate Roger Ingram and his partner Josh Rzepka is not just a collection of duets. It is filled with valuable information on stylistic interpretation, articulation, practice guidelines, historical notes, anecdotes, suggested listening lists as well as a number of Roger’s articles only previously available to subscribers of the Brass Herald. This book is truly one of a kind.”
“I love the format - tasteful duets, preceded by pertinent information regarding the style of each, topped off with recommended listening examples. Well done, gents!”
“The Versatile Trumpeter: Duets Vol 1, is a must in every horn case along with the other practice books of Arban, Stamp, and Sachs. Your practice session isn't complete until you’ve performed a jazz duet from The Versatile Trumpeter Duet Book.
Bravo!! You both hit a Grand Slam home run with this jazz duet book.”

“I think the book is excellent! It really covers a full range of genres and I love the articles that you include along with the charts! Nice goin’!”
“Congrats on putting together an eclectic book for the working musician, and the “want-to-be” working musician. This book encompasses many techniques and concepts that can only help players achieve the goal of becoming versatile in many styles. Versatility is where it’s at for the modern day trumpet player, who is now constantly asked to do more and more. Combined with the fact that these are fun and challenging to play, this is a tremendous book for teachers and performers alike! ”
