My name is Matt Brockman, I hope you enjoy all of my trumpet covers, trumpet arrangements and trumpet multitracks! I have Bb trumpet sheet music available (mostly in the form of trumpet ensembles) for most arrangements but I arrange for other brass instruments as well. I also teach some trumpet lessons on here from time to time! Whether you play classical or lead trumpet, I hope you enjoy!

Just turned 67. I play in a community band and have for well over 10 years. Lately I have been practicing much more and it helps me in both stamina and sound quality. I have been starting to discover some of the techniques you describe here. Thank you very much. I also play golf. Muscle tension control is vital for consistency and fast twitch muscles and I have found that the elimination of tension idea transfers to trumpet playing as well. I am trying to practice daily and for about an hour. Incidentally my high school band director also plays in the band with me. He is 87 and although his stamina is not what it used to be his virtuosity is still there.

Firstly, thank you for getting directly to the point instead of wasting time blah, blah, blah as virtually every other instruction vid does. The 10 "tips" re: posture, relaxation, singing, etc are basic, good advice for playing and overcoming many bad habits. They all work together. Really appreciate your assistance.
