    I bought a trumpet less than an hour ago. I have been practising on just mouthpierce(7C)for a little while, I have been taking help from youtube videos, I got home and thought I would have another look before approaching the instrument, the first that came up was yours, extrememly useful, the best I have seen yet, Will definitly take your advice as I think the approach first class.
    Thanks

    @hisinstrument18 Give yourself a break. 4 Days?
    ! It is normal to have that difference in pressure between pitches . Here is another trick: Think eee for higher notes and ah for lower notes.
    Breathing is still the number one factor that is overlooked and practising long notes may be boring but are really helpful for everything discussed in this video.
    Keep up the good work and have fun!

    @jalen77232 The trumpet and the bugle are about the same as a single-speed bicycle vs. a ten-speed. The bugle is simply a curved pipe and can only produce certain notes, namely, G and D. A trumpet has valves which enable you to play all other notes. Having said that, you *can* use a bugle for basic mechanics, like embouchure practice...in other words, how to purse your lips to make them buzz, producing sound. Once you get that down, do bugle calls until you can get that trumpet.

  • @MLGcinamin53
    @MLGcinamin53 14 років тому

    @robinorbita yes what you want to do is put the trumpet on your lips as lightly as possible, and play for about a minute without pulling it back on your lips harder and increase the time gradually until you can play for a whole practice section without the instrument killing you rlips. (hint, ive always noticed that when people put too much pressure their lips turn white when the mouthpiece comes off, so practice in front of a mirror.

  • @jackpalek2978
    @jackpalek2978 10 років тому

    If any one is interested, to answer MLGcinamin53's question. The trumpet piece in the beginning is from the second movement of the "Fort McHenry Suite" by Julie Giroux. The second movement is titled "Dimly Seen Through The Mists Of The Deep" and occurs near the end of the movement. One of my favorite pieces and part of my warm up routine.

  • @MLGcinamin53
    @MLGcinamin53 13 років тому

    @Ignorance96 what you need to do is practice long tones. take a little bit of pressure off your lips each time and do your best to get a full sound. if you adjust the pressure too much you will have that problem with no sound. just take a little off each time and keep trying. you'll get it eventually!!!

  • @MLGcinamin53
    @MLGcinamin53 14 років тому

    @Huskyowner2007 honestly the only way for your embouchure to get stronger is to practice. i recommend HL Clarke's technical studies, it's a great book to work on lip and breath support especially in the upper register. When you've gone through a few exercises, you should feel yourself having a stronger embouchure but it takes time so practice practice practice!

    @yujinls Maybe you could post a video. It is something we have to see. If your mouthpiece is too small, perhaps, or you need to strengthen your facial muscles (start by playing a lot of long notes.) Good luck.

    @EwanMcGreggor Breathing is a very important thing with trumpet. If you don't breathe it won't make a good tone at all, and it may have serious health risks unrelated to the trumpet.

    Recruits beware ..never volunteer is the 1st thing you will learn after you volunteer.
    After passing my Army band audition in NYC in 1978 (peacetime), with the recomendation of the former head of Army Music School, i was sent to tank school in Ft Knox instead because they were paying tank recruits $2000 bonus to sign up for 2 years. They already had me on 4 year commitment with no bonus.

    I have been playing trumpet for 3 years. For some reason I cannot seem to get the proper mouth position. No matter how I shape my lips I always seem to have a muddy tone. When I do have a decent sound A'lot of air comes through the bell. Any ideas of what may solve thi. I have tried 3c and 7c mouthpieces.
