The complete free embouchure workshop (From Hello Trumpet).
Embouchure is defined as the way the lips and tongue are applied to a woodwind or brass instrument. Developing your embouchure is part of learning how to play an instrument and sustaining good musicality. The characteristics of a good embouchure are control, tone, endurance and range. Read the suggestions below to learn how to develop embouchure on a trumpet.
It is remarkable to see that the trumpet can be controlled to such an extent as to produce the variety of music that it does when the player's only contact with it is with his lips and his left hand. It has helped me to bear this in mind because it suggests that any adjustments to improve embouchure would probably be physically very small, and subtle. To stay focused, we also note in passing that our efforts toward improvement are, in most cases, not related to the requirements of the music that is to be performed. In fact, it may be argued that altissimo playing, for example, represents more of an athleticism and a projection of power, than music as we normally think of it. I would tend to agree somewhat with this and would guess that there is not a significant segment of the earth's civilized population that would enjoy hearing much more than one triple C. It is helpful then to note this distinction when we consider our goals so that arguments, for example, that "high range (endurance, or flexibility) isn't everything", will have no place in this discussion. We are not doing anything musical here. We are instead simply trying to develop a physical methodology to achieve the well defined ends of increased range, flexibility and endurance. And because of this, suggested embouchure improvement techniques will be accompanied by physical rationale and not obscured by extraneous musical preferences. To this end we proceed as follows.

I am (foolishly?) taking to playing the trumpet for the first time aged 73. This has to be amongst the best teaching videos I have watched.

[@Kvng_eluan]

Nah, that's not foolish age is just a number, I hope to buy my trumpet by next year and start learning

[@RayNoble100]

@@Kvng_eluan that's great. I am now playing tunes and beginning to get some of the high notes!

[@Kvng_eluan]

@@RayNoble100 that's nice to know, I quite excited about learning the trumpet

[@t555p]

Me too... 74. When I was in elementary school I wanted to play cornet. But they told me my embouchure wasn’t right for it. I was told I needed to play clarinet which I didn’t want. Played for a year and quit. So a month ago I said screw em and went out and bought a nice trumpet

[@RayNoble100]

@@t555p I am pleased to say that my embouchure is getting better but it takes regular practice :) I love the relationship one develops with the instrument.

[@TomPauls007]

I'm also 73 and picking up the cornet. 1st video saved my endevor. Now I have a suggestion for new learners looking to limit horrid trumpet sounds. Use only the mouthpiece to practice your lips. Much quieter (and wifie stays home!)

Come back please, I love your trumpet videos! Watching in 2020 and I subscribed to this channel as a kid haha

Thanks, these videoes be the most helpful ive seen

[@selpingos]

Wow! from this to The Hat. awesome. I love the episode on the Adams factory tour with Teus and Christian

[@OTAInc]

Some great tips in the last 2 videos

[@luis0305able]

Hi guys!! Can you tell us more about Sib and C trumpets... wich one to choose, differences, soundwise, uses, etc etc... Thanks!!!

[@sandwichxiii]

sib (or Bb) trumpets play the Bb overtone series using open valves, meaning no valves down will play Bb, F, Bb, D... so on. On a C trumpet, it plays the C overtone series. Simply put, a Bb trumpet plays everything a whole tone down

I love black screens

Add auto-captioning please.

Hi Guys , just starting Trumpet, I have a 7c mp that come with my Thomann Black Jazz Trumpet. Ive heard its better if I start with a 3E ,what are your views on this please ? I do have kind of Thin lips as you may see in my photo.

[@Kvng_eluan]

Sorry that nobody replied but it's been 11 months what did you find, I'm about to invest in buying a trumpet next year (beginner)

[@honoredutrey]

Isn't the most important thing with the trumpet to have a muscular upper lip ? No matter how good the breath control is,if you haven;t any upper lip muscularity you will have no tone and no range.

[@da11king]

If It sounds good you are doing good?? Sometimes playing in the red sounds good too😧

[@katelyn.8643]

you look like pewdiepie

[@noproblem.4657]

Wow. I somehow believe you. XD

[@rik-keymusic160]

or Chet Baker?

[@porfo90]

Is similar to young Leonardo di Caprio xd

[@mrjimmienoone2130]

My God, what a rubbish. I admire the self-consciousness of some people who are trying to teach others here....

[@Jay-D92]

Why don't you upload a lesson then?

[@jazzupthattriad1257]

It's not a "Diaphraeghm". It's a Diaphragm. Thank you.

[@MxAvA]

As it is, your spelling does not help. It would be better to say it sounds like di-ahfram . The Dutch usually speak 3 or more languages, so don't expect them to know exactly the proper pronunciation of every english word.

[@jazzupthattriad1257]

***** This is how it is spelled. I am Italian, speak 4 languages fluently, and never had a trouble pronouncing the word "Diaphragm".

[@MxAvA]

My point was that if you want to explain how to pronounce a word, you need to write it in a way that shows the pronunciation or explain that the "g" is silent. Repeating the correct spelling doesn't help explain how it should be pronounced. Good for you that you are so fluent in multiple languages. I thought you were a monolingual American criticizing someone who doesn't speak english perfectly.

[@jazzupthattriad1257]

***** I am an Italian man, who speaks four languages fluently. On top of my mother tongue, I speak French, German and Russian (I studied Russian language and literature in the University). I cannot stand the Dutch accent. I guess it's just a matter of taste.
