Practicing the F Blues | Jazz Trumpet Lesson

[@socialcommentary1014]

I just picked up the trumpet again--something I really haven't touched in about 30 years. So glad I found your videos; you do an excellent job turning theory in practice.

[@paulgrimm6850]

Me too

[@denzelosei-addo1472]

I am 12 and I can play the trumpet, but the trumpet I play Is for my school

[@noel_noel9931]

What's great about these lessons is the willingness to share. I really thank you and I do look forward to trying these myself.

[@awadaawada6738]

Im a guitar player, and this was more helpful than all jazz guitar tutorials I've seen, thank you

[@gregmaslyn]

Seriously! I try to think more like a horn player when I'm practicing jazz lines on the guitar.

[@Bob1Mack]

I always tell teachers, "I'm really just looking for help in organizing my practice. Dude... you are a TEACHER!.

[@knormalday708]

Bro. I've been playing most of my life and I put it down for a minute but now I'm picking it back up. I felt like I was stuck in a loop. Tone and range come naturally, but creativity is lacking. I subscribed. I believe your lessons will help me reach new heights with my music.

[@emangroove4566]

Wow!! I just became "Unstuck" on something that I've been doing for a longtime. Its always great to get another perspective on technique. Thanks for the valuable lesson.

[@caroljohnson8817]

I love the way you break this down and open it up. Now I’m seeing more clearly what’s behind those chord symbols and those scales.

[@TheBlackTrumpeter]

That's great! I didn't learn that stuff until 2 years into my undergrad program! lol Glad i could help you out with relating scales to chord symbols :-)

[@jeremiah6136]

Hey man! Ive been watching your videos from the beginning! I was in the middle of the school year in beginning band when I started watching your videos. They inspired me to practice and to get better and better! With your help, I got accepted into my school wind ensemble this year and I am auditioning for allstate! Thanks so much for inspiring me to play trumpet... good work in your videos!

[@TheBlackTrumpeter]

Joiined This is so great! I’m glad my videos are inspiring to play and practice. How did your all state audition go? It’s pretty early. In Illinois, there are district auditions first then all state considerations based off of where students are placed in the district. Does it work the same for your state?

[@jeremiah6136]

The Black Trumpeter it is different in Florida. We just audition and the top people get in. I haven't gotten my results yet. Wish me luck!!

[@vhallsgallery68]

Thanks. I just picked up the trumpet a few months ago since 6th grade 1966, 67. I think I can get a lot from your videos but I don’t have the endurance yet.

[@The12348567]

So glad I found this site. Great info and presented in an understandable manner. Out of all the trumpet sites out there I think this is just what I needed. I am 72 years young and play in a community jazz band. I started playing in grade school up through high school and packed the horn away until about 10 years ago. So now I'm in a mad rush to get better with whatever amount of time I have left. Thanks for being their.

[@TheBlackTrumpeter]

Thanks for a great video, BT. I'm an experienced player, but this was still helpful to me, especially the routine of playing all the scales four ways (up, down, then up/down and down/up). This is a great way to get new tunes under your belt. yeah, the harmonic minor on the dimished chord! I was wondering what to do with this scale; now I know. Mega thanks.

[@jeffmckeown9639]

I know I'm late to this party. Picked up my horn after 25 years. This lesson is perfect for warm ups, fingering, and nailing down tone. Where could I find someone using this in a song? My brain isn't going together what to do with it during a song. I bought the exercise. Well worth it.

[@jaysolka2615]

Love your videos. I'm an old man that can't play piano due to condition in my hands. After some research, I found out that the trumpet is the only instrument that my bum hands would be no problem... was trying to learn recorder, which i have, but the one I like has holes spread too widely, and if I had too purchase a special one the price (for people with bum hands) would be really high. The recorder is much less offensive than a trumpet. for neighbors.. but the bottom line, I like the trumpet way more. I can put a mute on the trumpet, and, working from home, I could possibly pick up practice times when the neighbors are not there. On the other hand, the recorder is much easier, and I used to play a little saxophone and even recorder when I was a child. I played a trombone for a year, too, when I was a teenager, but didn't get much ahead with that. True, I'm much more patient now and I know much more how to practice, but I'm also an old man. Aslo, as I said, the trumpet price is probably the lowest of all instruments I like, like saxophone (not even comparable). And my hands shouldn't be a problem at all ( with the trumpet). But it is difficult. Just saying. And like jazz. The trumpet I've thought about getting is Jean Paul TR-430 ... And I love your practice exercises, that's what help me on piano. A lot.

This video is gold ❤

[@finnvr5331]

Great video but it was gonna bug me if I didnt say anything. The chord you have labeled as a C#o7 youre actually playing a Bbo7 third inversion arpegio over. However I still think it works well and I like the added C# esspecially in the scale exercise descending. I really like the video though and these are very good exersizes for players who are just starting to figure out 12 bar blues. Keep up the good work.

[@TheBlackTrumpeter]

Glad you enjoy the video! Fully diminished 7th chords are interesting. Since it entirely made up of Minor 3rd intervals the sound and bass notes are interchangeable. What really determines whether it’s a Bbo7 or C#/Dbo7 is the bass note or name of the chord. In the blues progression, usually that 6th bar is substituted with a #4 diminished chord. So in a G blues that bar will be C#o7 because C is the 4...C# would be the raised or sharp (#) 4.

[@i1glapion]

I can only say thank you for putting this simple teaching out there for all to see. I've been a trumpet player for a good while now and should be a whole lot better than I am to say I have been playing this long. I look forward to implementing these exercises into my practice times. I wish I would have found out about these exercises back in my days of school band. I would like to also ask you a question as well. I know that I began playing my cornet with the basic 7C mouth piece however in my quest for a greater range I later acquired other mouth pieces. I know there is a slight difference in the tone with each one, but as I have gotten better through the years, the difference and my range isn't near as noticeable as it was before. Is there ever a time when a different sized mouth piece is recommended? Or does it depend on the musician?

[@TheBlackTrumpeter]

You’re welcome! Don’t worry about matching playing experience with playing ability. You can still be as good as you wanna be but it’s about process man. Having fun with the process and grind of playing and practicing the trumpet will make you a better player.

[@TheBlackTrumpeter]

To answer your question...for me, using a different mouthpieces is recommended whenever I’m playing a lead trumpet gig to make the high register easier and more efficient. So for me it depends on the gig. If I play a lead gig a play one MP...on a classical or small group setting where I need a darker/broader sound I play another MP. It does depend on the musician however...this is what I do and it works for me because I play in a variety of situations and genres

[@timcurry1484]

Way to break it down. Great teaching style. It would be cool if you would have added a section of you improvising over the progression. All good. Thanks for sharing bargain.

[@TheBlackTrumpeter]

I decided not to because I didn't want to give the idea that this was a "how to Improvise" type of video. This is the prep work I like to do before I start improvising. Don't worry though.

Thanks for the video - I bought the PDF too. I have a question about keys. Having worked out it's called "F Blues" beacuse that's the concert pitch equivalent of what we're playing, how do I know which pentatonic scale to use for improvisation? Can I always use Bb major pentatonic to improvise on a G blues (F concert) or does it vary from one tune to another?

Anyway, I like it and I am determined to learn with your way of teaching, not having my left arm makes it a little harder, but I am not giving up. God didn't gave us a spirit of fear.
