S.E. Shires Alessi ExcerptUp Practice Tool - Tuba

As a musician who’s frequently auditioning for ensembles, it’s crucial that you’re able to play a variety of major orchestral excerpts. You must also practice those challenging excerpts regularly to improve your overall performance, even if you’re not actively auditioning. With the Alessi ExcerptUp from S.E. Shires, nailing those notable excerpts is as fun and easy as rolling a die — seriously! This 12-sided die was developed with the help of renowned trombonist and Shires artist Joseph Alessi and is a must-have practice tool for musicians from all walks of life. A different orchestral excerpt — hand selected for your instrument — is written on each side of the die. To use the Alessi ExcerptUp, toss the die, play the excerpt that lands faceup, and store it in your case until next time. 

After just a few sessions with the Alessi ExpertUp, you’ll know a variety of classic excerpts like the back of your hand!
