How To Produce a Great Sound on a Brass Instrument

To produce a great sound on a brass instrument, you need to coordinate your breathing, articulation and embouchure.

In these 2 videos, you will learn about the following:

  • Posture
  • Breathing
  • Articulation
  • Lip Buzzing
  • Mouthpiece Buzzing
  • Proper way to hold the trumpet
  • Playing patterns and a simple song on the trumpet

In the document below the videos, I outline the entire process of Breathing, Articulation, Lip Buzzing, Mouthpiece Buzzing and Playing on the Instrument.

Remember: YOU MAKE THE SOUND, NOT THE INSTRUMENT!

Always listen to great brass players in jazz and classical styles to give your brain good information.
