I used to slur everything, but now, tonguing actually makes my note choices more deliberate. Which slows me down a bit, but makes for better music. Thanks!
I just register, i found your way very smooth. I used to play by ear when I was 32 years sold my Flugelhorn and my trumpet. I am 68 now and 4 months ago I bought a Jupiter 600, used but in excellent condition. Since i bought it i bring playing it 2 or 3 times per day, I also started to read music a little, I am playing Misty by reading the notes, make a mistake ot two but never give up. By the way, I only have my right arm. Bought a nice glove left the pinky and the thump only so when I whole it it wouldn't feel so hard on my hand. Thank you for taking the time to teach us your playing techniques. God Bless!
God Bless you brother! Don't ever give up doing what you love! Hey, did you ever find a metronome for your cell phone? Seems I remember you asking about that somewhere. Kind of amazing what cell phones will do. Happy New Year, and why don't you start your own channel? I'll bet you could teach some important things.
Yep, don't give up! I gVe it up for nearly 40 yrs, got back into it, joined a couple of bands (I did offer them ear defenders lol) and never looked back. I'm hitting 70 and try to get a play each day. 🎼🎶🎵🎶🎺
I am a middle aged rookie.. As a guitar, bass, drum player I just wanted to try something different. You make it look so easy Bob LOL I feel like a child. So clumsy and I can't even make a decent tone. It is all very humbling indeed! Maybe I will pay for some remote lessons. I bought the most inexpensive trumpet on Amazon but I still think the problem is me :) Great videos, thanks.
Dear Bob, Thank u very much for your fantastic tutorial! I like the art how u explain. I am very interested in your horn. Can u tell which trumpet u play? Greets from Cologne Germany 🎺 Mitsch
Very interesting. What kind of tonguing do you think trumpeters uses in the Nestico's arrangement of Hard Sock Dance? Trp are unmuted at 0:30. Only the 3 first notes are written slurred ; for the rest I'm not sure they use the tongue/valves alternance, it sounds like a full (but very light) tonguing on each note. I'm especially wondering for the fast triplets at 0:50. It sounds to me as triple tonguing (which is uncommon in jazz, right?). Furthermore, the 2d and 3d notes of the triplet (E-G) are probably played with the same fingering.
Thank you! Too bad there was no internet or TH-cam when I started studying trumpet almost 60 years ago. Now at 66 I just play for my wife in our basement. Lol
As a tubist who doesn’t play in jazz and only listens to jazz this is very helpful
The 69 years ago got me for a second lol
Great username bro 🥴

You play some hot lines, man. I’ve yet to figure out how to do that. Blows my mind.
Thanks!
Very cool. Young players will benefit from this. I really love Dizzy’s articulation in his early bebop years.
great stuff bob...something i never thought of

Excellent. Well explained and you have a nice tune. Thanks.
Exactly what I do. Good explanation.
Great teaching Bob, very clear explanation.

This is exactly what i've been looking for. Great explanation on articulation.
I appreciate and I really enjoy your demonstrations I really need more lessons with you especially on how to improvise
Hey Cliffton, I'll be working on some videos on improvisation soon. Stay tuned, and thanks!
Thanks of lot for this video. So useful for me !
Underrated video
Love your videos man !
Yeah, Bob. Good to see and hear you again. Sweet lines and love your teaching style. Will definitely share with my students.
Thanks, John!

Great explanation. May I know what mouthpiece you use?
Thanks! I play on an Austin Custom Brass Ta-1.
nice
Do you have online lessons?
Hi Eric, I do offer online lessons. You can reach out through our website at ridgewoodschoolofmusic.com/contact - Thanks!
@@RidgewoodSchoolofMusic Do you use Doo, Dah and Dit tonguing or just Tah Ah?
Cool 😎 and beautiful 👍
2:46 !! what is the trick to speed up the simple tonguing !??
Practice, I imagine.
Pete was here
Hey Pete!
What’s that trumpet btw?
It's a Martin Committee from the mid '40's.
Very nice
You can't use the word "articulation"?
Help me bruh 😢
Particular
Now I realize I don´t know what an upbeat or downbeat is
Thank you! Too bad there was no internet or TH-cam when I started studying trumpet almost 60 years ago. Now at 66 I just play for my wife in our basement. Lol
