Your Gershwin is flawless. No pinching all flow. Have you done something on the importance of the right mouthpiece? That held me back to the point I chose not to go further in music. When I learned a 2nd instrument that smaller mouthpiece of the double french horn was a difference maker!
I've always wanted to learn the trumpet!
Mind bindingly beautiful sound
both brilliant and beautiful
Amazing player! Thank you for this brief but interesting take.

James Stamp Method … I will get it … thank you … love your playing … but simple words don’t do you justice!
Robert, it’s a couple of months since you commented so you may already know this but for anyone else reading this… As well as the James Stamp method (published by Editions ) Thomas Stevens, famous American trumpet player who I think Alison may also have had lessons from, has written a book of supplemental studies to the James Stamp method which also includes a demonstration CD. Editions Bim published that as well. Needless to say Stevens had lessons from Stamp himself.
Alison do you have a website to follow your career and comments? Thanks
Hi there, you can stay updated on everything Alison Balsom on her website here: www.alisonbalsom.com/

please mrs Alisson, how much air pressure in the Trump's mouthpiece does it take to make it sound perfectly?
Just enough to create a seal to keep air from escaping.
Tolles Buch, untere Reihe Mitte?

I'd love to know what mouthpiece(s) Alison uses.
Bach 1 1/4 C
Thanks for the info @@Marinetrompeter
Hi Alison. Wow, can you play!! I'm studying embouchures of various trumpet players, particularly yourself and Tine Helseth. Both your embouchures look so relaxed! It seems to me, with all the varied instruction & methods out there such as pucker, don't pucker; roll lips in; roll lips out; tight corners; relaxed corners, closed aperture, open aperture; say "M", stick your tongue through your lips to set your aperture, don't stick your tongue through your lips to set your aperture!!! UHHHHGGGG..it becomes paralysis due to over analysis!! Please correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems that what both of you do is simply say the letter "P". That seems to position your corners against your teeth, but in a relaxed manner; & saying "P" also moves your corners slightly in toward the mouthpiece setting your lips in the right position (for lack of a better way of saying it) all in one shot! A simple & relaxed embouchure that feels comfortable with no tension; instead of a contortionist setup where you're tired & strained before you even start to play. I think I see something like that at 1:09 minutes into this video, & at 1:20 where you start to play. Do I have that right Alison? If not, can you explain how you set your embouchure? Thanks so much!!!!!!
Sometimes I think lots of great players play without really knowing how they do it. At the end of the day, it's a gift. 🤷🏾♂️
How long did it take for her to play the trumpet
Many decades!
What do you mean by that? At the level she's at now? Decades. To be pretty proficient at trumpet? Few years of constant, heavy, guided practice. Same as any other skill.
