@@jambajoby32 That’s something I was curious about. Have you measured this? Once upon a time, I heard Wynton live. I was sitting perpendicular to his bell and it seemed like his sound was still coming at me. Then he turned and faced me . . . . That’s when all of my hair flew off of my head. 😆 Soooo much sound.

@@ChrisDavisTrumpet I have not but it’s obvious because they’re shorter mp’s I wonder if it’s adjusted and balanced in the throat/backbone because those too are larger than most. Monette trumpets, on the other hand, are large in general. Bells, bores, bell spread & more, no matter what, you’re getting a big sound if you’re using air!

Mouth pieces are like fingerprints. No two are alike , just like Trumpets. Everybody's mouth and dental structure , teeth alignment are also like fingerprints all different. You must experiment to find what is just right. The right combination. I have played on 4 mouthpieces in 63 years of playing. Started on a Bach 3C . Evolved to the 1 and quarter and now on a 1 1/2 . Learn to play softly and correctly, establish the low registers and build from there. On the other hand , I watched my friend Mark Gould play the Hummel flawlessly on several mouthpieces he was trying out during rehearsals. I am convinced Doc could play great on a tin can with a kazoo for a mouthpiece. There is no finite solution. It's all individual.

I just picked up a cornet at the age of 32. I played French horn from 5th grade til junior year of high school and loved playing but my school made me stop playing in band because of my grades… I picked up this Old’s Ambassador cornet from 1958 and it has great compression.. so excited to learn to play this instrument, thank you!

I’m a month after this live stream you had. I watched another video. Then another and now this one. By the time I finished the second one I felt you had to be a brother in Christ. Then you broke out the Scripture. 👍👍👍👍👍 While I have been listening and someone made “yet” comment. Gulp…I played in high school. In college I played until our band needed more other instruments than me on cornet since I wasn’t a music major. So I got moved to French horn…which I also enjoyed. I played for a number of years at church. Now I’m 74 and haven’t picked up an instrument in over two decades. The other day I got the itch to pick up my cornet. I expected to have to build endurance but I feel as if I’ve never played before. I don’t know how to even begin. Watched some videos but haven’t “yet” got any kind of tone. Thanks for you being the you that God wants you to be.

Two different worlds. I sort of like both. They do NOT sound like the same size or cup depth. The darker sounding one (Lotus) sounds like you are more familiar with it. I do see you raising your shoulders when playing high - that is poison for the Monette pitch Center.

Hi, Chris! I’m enjoying your lessons. I’m a saxophone player, pro for 30 years. I’m self-taught, and I’ve always played by ear rather than analysis, but obviously there are some tunes that are a little difficult to do that with. Take the one I’m shedding now: Tomorrow’s Destiny. There’s no way I could find my way through that by ear, so I’m doing the arpeggio thing, although I have a hard time with the discipline required to play similar formulations on every chord. This lesson reminded me that it doesn’t have to be hard unless you make it hard. Thanks.

It's still amazing to me how most players - whether beginner, teacher, professionals - insist on using the term "lip" slurs. Like @amandas1270's comment, I too struggled mightily with this concept until a Claude Gordon clarified that it requires disciplined use of the tongue, with the lips simply maintaining a secure embouchure. I'm a literal thinker and when I heard "lip slur" I actually tried to accomplish it by flexing/relaxing my lips! Of course, no player can do that without involving the tongue. I wonder how many other young players like me have trouble because of the totally misleading term "lip slur".
