Free ABRSM Scale Sheets and Videos for Trumpet and Cornet

This page is for the old ABRSM syllabus which is valid from 2017 to December 2023. The syllabus new is valid from January 2023 and there is a 1 year overlap period. The scales have also been updated and are different to the old syllabus. You are not allowed to mix the old syllabus with the new syllabus and this includes the scales.

Please find my free trumpet scale sheets which are suitable for ABRSM exams. I have written out all of the trumpet scales for Grade 1, Grade 2, Grade 3, Grade 4, Grade 5, Grade 6, Grade 7, Grade 8.  These are all free to download, simply click on the imamge to print in pdf format. Remember that the scales need to be learnt by memory and the need to be performed tongued and slurred. These free scale sheets are also suitable for cornet, fluglehorn, baritone and euphonium. There is also a free trumpet fingering chart to help you work out your scales.

Is Your Trumpet Exam Ready?

Make sure your instrument is ready for your exam and that your valves are well lubricated with a good quality valve oil.

You dont want them to stick at a crucial moment.

Don't forget that you will have to tune your instrument to the piano in the exam. Make sure your slide can move and use a good quality slide grease to make sue it doesn't get stuck. Being out of tune could affect your mark.
