1935

In Deutsche-Militär-Musiker-Zeitung, trombonist Paul Weschke is quoted as saying, “Since an absolutely clean technique is more difficult to achieve on the trombone than on the other orchestra instruments, the trombonist should concentrate primarily on tonal beauty. To achieve this, the trombonist must constantly practice scales and tone studies, and then mainly operatic arias and songs, of course with the text written in” (Lenthe).
