Rubank Advanced Method for French Horn in F or E-flat, Volume 1, edited by H. Voxman and William Gower, provides a structured next step after elementary and intermediate horn methods. Its 72 pages bring technical study and musical application together through scales, arpeggios, articulation work, flexibility exercises, melodic interpretation, and an introduction to ornamentation.
Duet material gives students and teachers a way to put those skills into context, working on phrasing and ensemble coordination alongside individual technique. Rather than treating scales and expressive playing as unrelated assignments, the outlined units support a balanced course of study that can be organized into regular lesson preparation. It is intended for players who already have foundational reading and playing skills and are ready for more sustained work. This listing is for Volume 1; the complete major- and minor-key course extends across both volumes of the Rubank Advanced Method.
The specially designed units provide a a complete pedagogy:
• Scales and Arpeggios All of the major and minor keys are covered in the complete two-book course
• Melodic Interpretation Including 20+ contest level duets in each book
• Solo Preparation Six contest level solos included
• Articulation Studies Specialized for each instrument
• Exercises in Flexibility
• Ornamentation All types are introduced
