I am reading the book "Legacy of a Master" by M. Dee Stewart and so far I am very sucked in. I am just curious who out there has read it and your thoughts on it. Also do you suggest other tubenetters to read it, I know I would suggest it to anyone, actually I told my DOB at NAU about it and he rented it from the library.

This is the book that can make all the difference in your playing!
Legacy of a Master is a collection of short articles by students of Arnold Jacobs. Some are entertaining (Charlie Vernon forgetting to pay Jacobs after a lesson) and others go into great detail of the approach Jacobs used when teaching. Most are inspirational.
It is the one book related to brass playing that will make you a better player just by reading it. Each time I read it, I instantly sound better. If I find myself in a playing slump, Legacy of a Master gets me going again.
IMO, this is the best book available on brass playing.
