- How do we increase our endurance as brass players? In this video we will discuss different techniques we can apply to help us to improve our endurance. These philosophies can be helpful whether you play trombone, trumpet, tuba, French horn or euphonium. Oftentimes it’s not about what exercises we practice, but instead how it is that we go about executing them.

I am a trumpet player and your videos have been very helpful to me, thank you!!
That’s great! I hope these videos can be helpful for all brass players.
I’ve been playing a long time but it’s only in the last few years haveI been able to work seriously on my sound production. I have discovered that many things I was doing have only served to slow me down, especially emboucher, lip
Andyf We are always discovering things about our playing that can make us more efficient. Ultimately, we are our best teachers!
Thanks so much for all this great advice! (I've just watched about 10 of your videos, so impressed!)
As a French horn player, I definately over think my playing, paralysis by analysis definately applies!
Yesterday was la fête de la musique here in France, playing outside in gusty wind and cold definately helped shift the focus too.🤣Looking forward to activating all your trombone tips, it definately makes playing more mellow. 👍
That’s great to hear. These concepts can apply to all brass players. I’m glad the information is useful.
Things about playing that I have never heard, but makes a lot of sense. I will take this to the practice room. Many thanks
Thanks for checking out the video and happy practicing!
The corners thing I think is one of the most important things in this video. Really gonna start looking into that more in my playing/fundamentals. Great stuff as always, you should definitely have more subs man!
Thanks! Yeah the corner thing is really important, I’m glad you caught that. I’m slowly building the channel and I’m confident things will continue to grow. Share the videos with your fellow musicians, I have plenty more coming!
I have been thoroughly enjoying your videos. Your delivery, pacing and ability to explain ideas are right on point, well done. I'm an amateur musician and you have been providing a lot of food for thought. Your vids are inspiring me to play more!
I’m so glad the videos have been helpful to you! Keep on picking up your instrument and playing, your brain and body will thank you for it.
1st time I've watched this and 💯 % less effort gives us longer stamina , everything here is what I learnt about over thee endurance, I was thinking tbh well I'm only two years back playing and put the theory into practise . Definetly everything in this vid is 💯 % good on ya chop shop , having no teeth doesn't help but our chops adapt . Love these videos me ,from UK 🇬🇧 👍
That’s awesome to hear! I’m glad your chops are on the right track.
Excellent and thoughtful. Thanks, Dion!
Thanks, I appreciate you checking out the content!
Great concepts her, Dion, thanks!!
Thanks, Im glad you found the video useful!
Hey man, thanks for the preach, love it! I play too and know and understand all you said. Thanks, Professor! Carlos
I'm glad the message in the video resonated with you. Thanks for watching!
Just started to delve into the brass world recently, I think your videos are going to help me greatly thank you!
Awesome, welcome to the brass family! It’s crazy to say but it’s easier than we make it out to be. These concepts should help you on your journey.
So far so good!
I’m excited I just got a Heritage Series Dennis Wick 1XL Tuba mouthpiece. I’m using it on a fully refurbished 22K Conn Sousaphone! This is so awesome. Thank you for your advice and for being an awesome human bro!
Thanks, I appreciate you checking out the content! Enjoy your new Conn Sousaphone, I’m sure it’s a joy to play.
this is gold
I'm glad the information was helpful.
Another great concept. “How we practice endurance....”. And I think this is a good idea in general when practicing.
Thanks, I'm sorry Im just seeing this comment.
Cool. Great concept: over breathing...
I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
Yes I am so guilty of blowing my aperture apart but my new slightly puckered set up is helping plus I am trying to practice at lower volume. Not sure why I have such a difficult time reducing sound volume in my music room it’s just me in there. Your channel is very helpful.
Many of us blow out lips into position. I did it for at least 25 years but I’ve found it’s so much easier letting the lips sit there and vibrate freely. It’s made all the difference in my playing!
I practise long tones lots of them it helps 👍
@@johndowson7929 What aspect of your playing does long tones improve?
@@pebblebeach8517 it helps you to zero in on how soft you can play these long notes how you can play them with as little effort as possible
@@pebblebeach8517 they also really good for your initial sound , tone
I just discovered (and subscribed to) your videos. I'm a trumpet player but everything you you discuss about air flow and embouchure is directly applicable. And you really do an incredible job explaining everything! Thanks
Welcome to the family, I’m glad you found the channel! Yes, these concepts apply to all brass playing. I have several trumpet students that have had a lot of success by applying these ideas.
I WANT THAT SHIRT!!!
You can find it out there!
Man. Cool shirt!
Thank You!
Hello teacher greetings, I am Juan Brenes From Puerto Rico, I have a concern, I have the lower jaw retracted (backwards) not aligned with the upper one, I should align them, or I continue tilting the trombone down a bit .. thank you very much for your guidance and Good videos...
Hello Juan, thanks for checking out the videos. You ideally want to have both of your jaws aligned in there natural position. Pretend you’re blowing out a candle, that’s more of where you want the lower jaw to be. The less adjustments we make to the natural structure of our lip formation the better. Don’t compensate efficiency for effectiveness!
Hi deon, my lips get tired of high notes pretty soon … any suggestions ? Or do I have to just keep at it and it will get better over time ? Thanks love your videos
Are you getting a good warmup in? Sometimes if we don’t prepare properly our chops will fail quickly. Make sure you’re only doing what you have to do, nothing more nothing less.
Dont overblow, compress the air and
Let the lips vibrate making the aperture smaller
Hi Dion, I think I have problem with my endurance. I easily get tired after playing one song but I play loud so I know that I get tired but it's after one song and i'm scared that I could hurt myself.
I have braces but I don't think they are the problem really.
Are you getting in a proper warmup? You want to take a little time to get yourself ready for the race. If you know you’re overblowing, back off some and see if you can resonate the horn without overblowing. Try to rest as much as you play so you don’t blow your chops out in the long term.
@@TheChopsShop I do a little warm up for about 5 min but what do you think is a good warm up?
Everybody and everyday is a little different but 10 min of fundamentals works for me. In the past I warmed up for 40min - 1hour. Give yourself enough time to get your blood flowing. Practice soft especially if you have to play loud. Give your lips a little taste of all types of playing, everyday.
After watching this video I am still at a loss as to what exercises to practice. What did I miss?
You didn’t miss anything. This video is about how to practice your endurance not what exercises to practice. They way you approach any exercise is often more important than the exercise itself.
Hello, I hope you are well, my name is Juan Brenes, I live in Puerto Rico and I speak Spanish, I ask if it was possible to translate into Spanish (Spanish substitutions) ... this as a suggestion ... a pleasure and thank you very much for your video ...
I will do my best to figure out that option. Thanks for watching the videos!
The Chops Shop Hello, thank you very much for your prompt response, Juan Brenes From Puerto Rico ...
For me the first thing to get tired is my jaw and I don’t know why.
That’s interesting. Those muscle are telling you they are getting overworked. Without seeing you play, it’s really hard to say why.
