Double High C - Just a Little Sip More

[@medusa210562]

The higher you go the closer the harmonics are. Basic science.

[@winxonnguyen9341]

Ye but it's impressive because the frequency required to play higher gets exponentially higher too. octave to octave requires double the hertz

[@Mster_J]

I’m guessing you’re not a trumpet player?

[@winxonnguyen9341]

@@Mster_J I am, and he's right... im assuming you're still a novice because it's pretty common knowledge. The harmonics get closer and closer the higher you go, which is why the partials get closer and closer

As a sax player who goofs around on trumpet, I just tuck my lips against my teeth, put an appropriate amount of air, and boom: instant high notes.🤪🤪🤪

[@austinhernandez2716]

That probably sound terrible

[@oscah_whisky]

@@austinhernandez2716 I'll tell you what sounds horrible, beginners who put too much red in the cup of the mouthpiece.

[@Enryu_uyrnE]

WOOOWWW!!! YOU MUST BE A GENIUS!!! IT ALMOST MAKES YOU WONDER WHY NO OND ELSE DOES THAT- oh wait, you obviously sound like a half mutilated dog trying to squeak on a trumpet 😂. Curb your ego

[@enyinnayaugwunna791]

I really appreciate that mouthpiece

[@papabear4040]

what size mp?

[@Yoshinori76]

Question. I've been struggling getting past my G-A break. When you say aiming can you clarify?

[@johnnylow3295]

no way same, glad im not the only one

[@kile8328]

His finger when he demonstrates it is his tounge position. he is controlling his airstream with the back of his tounge to makes the air more compressed thus higher. Same when he drops lower he descends the back of the tounge from the roof of the mouth to make the air move slower creating lower tones. The “aiming” is aiming your airstream with ur tounge.

[@hiimrezgaming9885]

Think of blowing at a downwards angle into the mouthpiece when playing high, and the opposite when playing low. This forces the back of the tongue to go up, which makes you play higher when putting more air pressure. Remember also to engage your core to get that extra support and you should get over it.

[@Lucas-tj6sl]

If you want to play high notes make sure you are not trying to vibrate you're lips. You should make the air vibrate your lips try whistling and tensening you're lips.

[@austinhernandez2716]

That's just how a brass instrument works
