  • In this video, I go over a trumpet range building exercise (originally written by Bill Adam and based off of ascending and descending major scales), how I approach practicing it, and the importance of jaw position. I also discuss how the jaw position will affect airflow and may increase your range or at least make it "easier".

    Love to see a humble player who doesnt pretend to be a trumpet God, and actually shares info to help other players.

    I found that if you start to blow air like your going to play 1-2 beats early and then Start the buzz a 1/16-1/8 before beat 1 you can get a near perfect timing on the attack

    The comment about reseting and have 2 embouchures really resonated with me, I am self taught and as a way of compensating for my underdeveloped embouchure I picked up the bad habit of changing it for higher or lower notes. It helped at the beginning but really messed me up after a while. I decided to try to change to a consistent embouchure and it seems to help quite a lot, though I still have not gotten back to my original range using the 2 embouchures, still the notes I do have are more consistent and brigher than ever. Your tips have proven to be invaluable and I really appreciate it! Still, the trumpet is truely an unforgiving instrument and your content as helped quite alot with my journey to improve.

    i can play a high G as a late 7th grader… i’m first chair and 1st trumpet part, but i’m in jazz and for 8th grade, i need a higher range. put despite how hard i try to play up more notes it is either a half an octave lower or just doesn’t come out.. any suggestions. also when i play really high notes my throat sometimes makes like a sound as if i’m trying to clear my throat but i’m not.. any suggestions?

    im in 9th grade and ive been capped at a d above the staf but my true range is really up to a g above the staff (i can go higher but its really 50 50 on demand but in the moment i could hit it) ill try these to see if they work and ill update yall

    I also go back and forth between the same two mouthpieces. Both are great. The Lead, I use if 90% of the notes are above E. It definitely helps with hitting high notes more comfortably. They're also closer together so I find I slip higher than I should sometimes (just gotta work on my ear for those notes).
