The latest publication by the well-known teacher of wind instruments, Péter Perényi, includes pieces that even absolute beginners on the trumpet can play: the pieces in the first chapter, entitled ''Introduction to chamber music'', enable even young trumpeters who can play just one noteon the instrument to discover the pleasure of shared music-making. Rhythm games, European folk tunes, then a wealth of easy performance pieces (from the medieval period, through Beethoven's Ode to Joy right up to the present day) make up the valuable content of this volume.
