My son stole my oboe. I bought a cheap trumpet online for a musical outlet. I played mellophone in marching band many moons ago, so I can play basic things (having fun with brassifed). But my upper register is quite sad. Does it take time to build strength or is it related to poor embouchure? Just wondering if I should expect to struggle for a while. Anyone feel free to answer.

didn't really work for me. Maybe because my front teeth are uniform without any irregularity for air to pass

I have found that some can and some can't. If you pinch off no good .listen to Maynard he can play high very easily. Pinch your ass cheeks and blow fro. Your balls

Hello, I am writing this message from Turkey. I want to make a new start and purchase a trumpet. I want to play Latin and jazz music. Is the Jean Paul USA TR-330 suitable for this? Can I play these styles with the Eastar ETR-380? Which one do you think is more appropriate?

Thank you Paul! I´m 33, completely new at the trumpet but experienced on other instruments. I figured I could play very high notes when I was messing around with the trumpet in my first hours of playing. Then I watched different teachers on youtube and was discouraged thinking that what I was doing had to be wrong. I didn´t trust my own ears. Thanks to you, I will now continue developing what I found naturally. Great teaching!

Hey Paul! Love the videos. When you do the weight training portion, should the focus be to try and keep your top lip relaxed? Straight away I can move 8 US quarters, I was thinking I shouldn't be able to do that right away?

Hello Trumpet Prof! As I am practicing this approach it seems I loose my old embouchure and with it my sound.. aiming for a nice warm airy jazz sound. my question would be if its possible to achieve the same colours as with an more traditionally tought embouchure and its just a matter of getting used to the new system? thanks in advance and thank you so much for sharing this knowledge here with us for free!

This is THE best way to play the trumpet. Like any "art" it takes time, but the benefits offered are greater than any other way of playing the trumpet. That's a big claim but it's not just about effortless high notes and unlimited endurance. Like I explained in the video, if you are using your lower lip/upper teeth to create frequency, the upper lip can remain relaxed. That's important because it allows you to perfectly synchronize with the instrument and be taken and controlled by its standing wave. The more relaxed your top lip (and face in general) the more resonant your default sound will be. That's where we start. With a perfectly resonant, bright and brilliant trumpet sound. From there you can use your upper lip to change the colour and timbre of the sound by using different areas of it to vibrate with the lower lip. Remember, you don't need it to control frequency/pitch so it's free to expand your spectrum and palette of tonal colours. There's no other system that allows for that freedom and flexibility. TP

@@TheTrumpetProf Thank you for the detailed response! I went back to playing the way i did before for a couple a days and it sounded so much better but my endurance was very short lived. I am fully committed to your MDAS system now and it clicked! I have a rather big overbite and while trying around different positions i found out that blowing upwards (like you pointed out already) helped me free up the airstream and a high c came out of nowhere, effortless, loud and resonant like i never played it before! I will continue on this journey and looking forward to unlock the unlimited endurance:) Again thank you so much for sharing this with all of us! Gordon

Prof. I’ve just passed grade 6 ameb (Australian music examination board) and Arban 1,3,6,10,14 are one possible choice for a 5 pieces repertoire to pass grade 7. How many months of study wil Aruban 1 will require? I’m thinking 3 months study every day 1hr should getting me there for Arban 1 played at a reasonable pace. Cheers Prof. Anyone playing this proficiently should be at least give the chance to play 1st trumpet in a local concert band ? 😁

Good evening Mr Mayes, I recently discovered you, (my music teacher recommended your videos, as I kept struggling with increasing my range) and you already helped me a lot! I committed to a slightly more downward angle while playing and my range has increased massively thanks to you! The only problem is that as soon as I start giving more power I need to reenforce with more mouthpiece pressure. The thing is I originally played and still play in Brass Bands in which, as you know, I have to play far more loudly than as a trumpet soloist. This means that I exhaust myself a lot in rehearsals even though at home(where I don't have to play near as loudly) I can go on practising for hours. I have already seen your straw and coin exercise which helps strengthening the muscles to give power using the belly muscles. Are there any other exercises on the horn itself to train yourselves using the belly for power/dynamic instead of mouthpiece pressure? Thanks a lot and have a great evening

@TheTrumpetProf 2 ай бұрын

That's great to hear. Mouthpiece pressure will increase but that's where TLR (top lip relaxed) becomes so important. As we try harder and use more effort we often react in the face. Try to stay as relaxed as you can and push/huff the air from your chest. TP

@TheTrumpetProf 2 ай бұрын

You need to re balance your energy/air flow. Start by huffing a long low C several times at a quiet dynamic and hold onto that sensation. Gradually add small cresc. but always huffing. Your throat is most likely the main problem. Good luck. TP

Do you have any full/big lipped students? Most of these videos I see have either teachers or students with lips quite honestly at least twice as small as mine. As well I have an overbite (jaw misalignment). Do you have any technique tips for this?

@TheTrumpetProf 2 ай бұрын

I have helped plenty of students with bigger lips and having an overbite shouldn't hold you back. Of course I have no idea what you have to work with but based on what you've told me, roll your lips in so the dry area of the top lip is very gently touching the dry area of the lower lip and experiment with getting some higher frequency sounds. Also try directing your air downward. Good luck. TP
