About the Vocalises

The vocalises of Marco Bordogni have been cherished by generations of vocalists and instrumentalists. Perfect the art of legato and phrasing with these timeless studies. Joannes Rochut, principal trombone of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, transcribed them for trombone in 1928.

The Vocalises for other instruments

Engraved like a printed part

Each study is transposed and re-clefed into the instrument's range and engraved at a 7.5 mm staff with a printer's margins, one study to a page or a spread, never a turn inside a study.

For you and your studio

Print as many copies as you need for yourself and your own students. The file itself is not to be passed on or posted.

Cut for marimba

Every study sits in and reads in its clef, so nothing has to be transposed at the stand.
