Hi man, I'm just beginning to medium can you explain to me a method or ROY Stevens' method to play the high notes?

Because it’s a Bb instrument duh

Probably because it’s an E on the trumpet, which is the instrument he’s playing, so he played an E

2 years later, I can now do this. W

Nice petaminx

Nice 2 set violin reference

He practiced 80 hours a day

Many people think that playing trumpet is simply blowing air through the horn and pressing down a valve to make a sound, but that's not case. There are only so many valve sequences you can press down before you have to repeat for a different note. To make a sound on the trumpet, you have to buzz your lips. Your bottom lip doesn't buzz however, just the top lip. Think about sound waves, and how the faster the sound wave, the higher a pitch. The more taut a string is pulled, the higher the pitch would be when plucked. It's the same concept here. So what makes this video so impressive is that George Hogg is controlling his air, the speed at which he buzzes his top lip, and the muscle strength it requires to go from a low pedal D to a double D above the staff without a break in the sound (break in the sound meaning he doesn't take in another break and doesn't remove his lips from the mouthpiece to set for that higher note. It is CRAZY stuff that takes years and years to master. This exercise alone is a fraction of what the trumpet is capable of, and more so what the trumpet PLAYER is capable of. Hope this helps :)

@@codyschexnaydre5456 Thank you for the info!

@@codyschexnaydre5456 I've been playing for 10 years and never knew that only the top lip buzzes

Thanks Devon, great piece! I’ll link you in the description 👍🏼

@@GeorgeHogg Thanks! Here is my webpage as well: devonpacker.com/

Yep sure, done!

Sounds like you are doing fine and you are just where you belong. High notes are a good goal for high school.

You’re still way too young homie. Give it time

C concert = D trumpet

It's a transposing instrument.

c'mon man what's the point in that

@@isaaclevitt9829 ah, don't worry, it's an in joke with me and george. We do a horn section together! Hooligan Horns if interested :)

@@tomdunnett9654 ooooh shoot sorry man haha, didn’t mean to be rude 👍🏻

@@isaaclevitt9829 no worries at all bro! I spose i was asking for it 😄

So… you’re saying it’s the E ABOVE triple C? No, it’s not. It is the E above double C… meaning it is “double E”. The note names change upon each successive F#. If he played a note a whole step higher than Double E, it would be Triple F#.

Usually a Neumann TLM170R (which is what I used here) but I’ve got a few others if I need a different sound, and I normally use a Neumann KM54 for horn section stuff.

@@GeorgeHogg awesome thank you so much! You sound great

That cost a bit! Sounds great
