The “48 Lyric Studies” is intended to improve the musician’s music-reading comprehension to the point of being better able to determine what the written page of music tells the performer, and, perhaps more importantly, what it does not. The studies have been progressively arranged in a manner designed to emphasize numerous specific musical problems associated with notation from the performer’s perspective, from the recognition of elementary musical structural components such as motives, phrases, (including melodic outlines) cadences, and meter, to the concept of overall musical architecture, usually presented in song forms. It should also be noted that the actual notation of the music in these studies has its own purpose, in accordance with an old dictum of 20th Century composer and performer, Leonard Bernstein, paraphrased here as follows:"Sometimes the music sounds the same as it looks, sometimes it looks different but it sounds the same, and sometimes it looks the same but it sounds different!" Thomas Stevens, Los Angeles, 1997
The "48 Lyric Studies" consists of freely transcribed versions of, or original studies derived from, selected vocalizes by Giuseppe Concone (1801-1861) and Giovanni Marco Bordogni (1789-1856). Transcriptions of the vocal works of these two Italian composers have been used by generations of brass players to develop those positive qualities identified with good lyrical sound production and the basic principles of melodic playing. These "48 Lyric Studies" are intended to carry the educational process one step further by including the dimension of musical notation as it applies specifically to the performance practices of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, a period when some of the most important developments in western music took place, and a time when the trumpet was in absentia", for reasons known all too well by present-day practitioners of the instrument. the composer
Stevens incorporates the following techniques within his advanced lyric studies: flexibility, symmetrical and asymmetrical meters (3/16, 5/16, 2/8, 3/8, 11/8, 6/4, etc.), keys up to 6 sharps/6 flats, complex rhythms up to 16th and 32nd note combinations,articulation exercises, rubato playing in brief cadenzas, long tone and wide interval lyrical exercises, and more. Former principal trumpet for the Los Angeles Philharmonic, Thomas Stevens' educational materials are used in music schools throughout the world.
