When I've watched Louis play on UA-cam videos, he looks so much more relaxed playing the octave above the staff than any other player I've seen. After hearing his comments here I realize that he did that consciously as he developed his approach to playing. That's a great lesson in itself. It's also refreshing to hear how humble he is in crediting so many great players and teachers that have influenced and helped him. When I watch and listen to him play, it motivates me to practice!
This is pure gold. Thank you.
I highly respect Louis Dowdswell and this has been very helpful for me! I love his commonsense approach to playing. I like that he dispelled lots of common myths!
This is fantastic! Awesome to hear his approach and that he appreciates Donald Reinhardt too. Great masterclass thank you!
Hey Louis. Just wanted to let you know that I’ve been struggling to play E above the staff for years. After watching your workshop and many of your videos and applying your recommendations I can now play G# and heading towards double C. I can finally play HEY JUDE Maynard Ferguson style for the first time in my trumpet playing career. Simply saying THANK YOU …..
What techniques helped you most? I have a similar problem and also look up to Louis!
“Tongue controlled embouchure” as Louis stated, is what I discovered on my own during this COVID time back in April 2020 when all gigs stopped for me. My double C’s started speaking a lot better. More importantly (for me) it’s finding that backing off in the extreme upper range assists in discovering the double C and tonguing up there as well. Finally, I used to be all about firm corners because that’s what all my former teachers would focus on, as well as air but I’ve realized those things are important but not the end all of the extreme upper range! Best of luck everyone!
Exactly this re corners and air flow high up. I think Louis is bang on to how we should all approach trumpet playing - no silver bullet, everybody has to find their own way to some degree. There are things you can try and general approaches that may help but nobody can see inside you so you're probably going to have to work out how you can do it yourself!
Very informative and a great trumpet player ! Thank you for posting 👍
Great Lead Trumpet for me The Best congratulations.
Loved the video!!! Great advice and guidance for Trumpet players!!!!!

Thank’s for sharing…great..
Thx, very interessting Interview
If you watch a Wayne Bergeron masterclass he states that he can only buzz a high C so obviously there is more going on than vibrating lips. Louis certainly gives some very good
advice on many subjects here.
57:28 best advise I've ever heard regarding the mouthpiece selection, simple and to the point
Learned so much here. I see where I need to work and conceptually his explanations are really insightful.
I really enjoyed watching this and picked up some great tips. Many thanks for posting. My only suggestion would be for questions to be asked or repeated on microphone so we can hear them clearly.
I found it very interesting that you take into consideration the fact that every player has different "variables," ie, anatomical and physiological variations. I consider the very same things, and advise novice coaches and athletes, in the matter of weightlifting technique and programming.
Then, of course you went to a weightlifting analogy a few minutes later.
By the way, my training as a trumpet player in breathing, breath control, and breath support ended up serving me well in bracing my core for Olympic weightlifting efforts, as well as preventing fainting. I wrote a short paper on preventing fainting during weightlifting, a good bit of it informed by my experience as a trumpet player.
30:23 - 31:13 REALLY reduced my impostor syndrome. Not because he 'sounded bad' or something, but because I have always struggled with the exact issue and it's nice to know that we shouldn't be expected to be able to do this.
but the point is you CAN do it with the proper setting. I have seen videos of a fair amount of players that can. (Adam Rapa comes to mind) With that said, Louis is an absolutely FANTASTIC player in his own right, but this is him pretty much admitting a weakness, not saying “it’s okay if you can’t do it guys, bc I can’t, so don’t worry about it”
I tried for such a long time to lip trill and couldn’t get it. I took a year on mellophone and the difference in labour on the embouchure to get get from slot to slot was massive. When I went back to trumpet a year later I was amazed that I could trill. It almost as if you lift a heavy weight for a long time then when you change to a lighter weight it becomes easy. Sounds silly but it’s true
Do i breathe in with the lungs or stomache when i play trumpet? help
Hi, Louis! Great talk so far.
Your point that no matter who plays an 'A,' everyone's lips vibrate at the same frequency is spot on. Small correction: On a B-flat trumpet, that frequency is not 440 Hz. That would be the frequency of a Concert A, as played on a C trumpet.
An a is an a, even when you call it h or maybe Frank, and he plays that a, so..
Mark when he said 440 he was playing a concert A… use your ears before your fingers.
Servus könnts ihr mal en video über den s-mp sg16-15 mache wär mal guud vo a andere perspektieve zu sehe
Warum nicht mal einen Workshop mit Malte Burba?! - Einer, der WEISS wie Trompetespielen wirklich funktioniert und nicht einfach ein Supertalent ist.
Stimmt, MB ist weder das eine noch das andere..
Louis NO!! 🤦♂️
What?
Was für ein Schwachsinn, einen englischsprachigen Dozenten zu verpflichten...Die Hälfte des Gremiums hat nicht EIN Wort verstanden "PERLEN VOR DIE SÄUE"
...in Sachen Erklärung nicht mal eine "Perle".
Too much talk
Yes I often find it much easier to teach without explaining what I’m doing or my process. You might be looking for a concert
