🎺 BIG BRASS ENERGY 🎺

I’m a beginner trumpeter. Currently practicing my chromatic scales across the higher registers, but I really struggle relaxing and finding proper embouchure for the lower notes. I’m either getting notes too airy, too inconsistent, or just really shitty in tone. Does anybody else here play brass and can give me some sort of guidance?

Also general thread for brass and woodwind and general horniness I guess

My band teacher made me play sousaphone in marching band cause we already had too many drummers and I knew how to read music. The mouthpiece is enormous, you just kind of make fart noises into it and it works fine.

That’s all I know about brass sorry

The trick is to use your breaths to take a split second and adjust your embouchure.

Also, don’t adjust your breaths for low vs high. you should consistently be using the same deep, high quality air, from your diaphragm, when you breathe.

this is my new startup: canning deep high quality air from the diaphragm and selling it.
