This is by far the best tutorial on how to play for a beginner I found. No joke, I looked at dozens and none explained it so well and made it so accessibly.
I agree
@Vance Ronan lol hackers
Fr lol
I do cornet but this is pretty much the same
Kinda
I'm not even interested in ever learning trumpet and yet this guy still has hold of my interest. I bet he's a great teacher.
Hey thanks!! haha
he is
You know its good when someone intrests a non-student 😂
Turning 31 this month, and I just picket up a trumpet for the first time in my life. For all you kids getting into this please take it seriously, music is really important for a balanced life. Here to learning!
Thanks for the video dude, you've got a knack for it that's for sure.
25 here and same opinion. Than you!!!
Thank you!!!!
Turning 31 in a few weeks and also just starting!
Couldn't agree more. I'm a 38 year old musician who has always loved music but sometimes let's life get in the way. The bottom line for me is that I realized recently I can't be happy unless I'm practicing my instruments and making music on a regular basis.
I just turn 49 i started to play the trumpet in six grade and quit after
8th grade. I thought about getting another trumpet and start playing it again, just to see if it will all comeback to me.
My 4th grader is learning for the first time and was trying forever to just get sound. We watched this video together and he got it in less than 3 minutes. The look in his eyes when he hit a note! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
I'm so happy to hear this. Trumpet can be so frustrating. I'm glad your son got some sounds during the video. A world of music awaits!!
@@AdamMeckler this helped me a lot to I play cornet but it still helped a lot
The best beginner lesson we found. My son learned so much. Thank you!!
Are trumpet is broke but not in pieces and one of them is just keep getting stuck down how do you fix it
@@kendralane155 you have to get valve oil, which you can find at any music store, and unscrew the valve to oil it. Don’t pour it from the bottom of the trumpet, as it does not work and just makes a mess
My daughter heard me say I had thought about playing a trumpet so she brought me one for father's day. I have ben looking at videos. I am making sounds with the trumpet but i do not think thry are the right sounds. Will keep looking at your video. At 61 this is going to be interesting
I'm 79 years old and wanted to play the trumpet in High School, but got stuck playing the Tuba ('cause they had too many trumpet players). I'm getting a trumpet soon and will be following your videos.
Fantastic news! My very first trumpet student ever was an 80 year old beginner, who spent his whole life playing polkas on the drums. At least you have some brass playing experience. Good luck, keep in touch on the progress!
@@AdamMeckler Thanks! Will do!
Nice starter vid. Jazz Guitarist here 62 YO have issues with my left fingers so I bought a horn to keep my music playing alive. I am loving this thank you so much Sir!
That's an inspiring story, Rick. Best of luck on your journey!!
Finally, someone describing different breaths for low /high parts of the octave. Nice job. Long time musician helping the little guy learn trumpet for the first time. Thank you for teaching us both. Subbed
Thank you!!
just bought myself a trumpet, and your video is extremely helpful for me as a beginner. Thank you!
Great to hear it!! TY!
@@AdamMeckler hi
How it's going after 5 month?
How much did you get it
Yes mr Adam thank You to teaching me how t o play the trumpet i a Joao Braz Pantana from Mozambique Africa
I'm overwhelmed by the positive responses to this video. Thank you all for watching! I've started a new series of educational videos on my channel. Here's one where I teach you how to play 5 note songs. Much love and happy practicing! th-cam.com/video/m-G-POh2QqA/w-d-xo.html
Hi adam, first of all thank you very much for your helpful video’s! And secondly I wanted to ask you how do you change pitches from C to G to an octave higher C without changing any of your finger positions? Like what you do at 8:33
I’m just starting trumpet tonight and this helped a lot to get the basics down! Thank you for this video!
How are you doing so far?
Hey same!
Long time guitar player, first time brass player. THIS is the video that got me that early success I needed to power through the wonky wailing walrus that was my first attempts!
So glad to hear it! It only gets better with time! Most important thing right now is to play a little bit every day. Go get it!
I’m a drummer . First time picking up a horn . Literally got notes out . Great video
Thank you so much! I'm a percussionist so whenever it came to trumpet I was always told that you have to buzz into the mouthpiece so I would always try to execute the buzz into the mouthpiece instead of letting the mouthpiece make the buzz happen and now I finally have some consistency.
Yes! So glad to hear this!
Thank you so much Teacher 😊 my daughter learnt step by step 'how to play trumpet lesson'
I'm Sri Lankan.
Love it! So glad you found my video!
I'm 54 soon and i have bought myself a trumpet, i am going to use this when it's delivered, thanks.
Oh holy hell, I paid for 3 different types of Trumpet lessons, watched Youttube videos and this is the best introductory video on getting sound out of a trumpet. I'm not kidding, thank you soooo much!
bravo! I am an 83 year old harpist. I want to makea noise now so I bought cornet! you have taught me!
bravo young man! sachmo here I come!!
My daughter is starting out on the trumpet and you are an amazing teacher.. I watched the video with her and found myself doing the exercises with her. She learned so much in such a small amount of time.. great work.
Thank you. Very good - telling me how to hold the trumpet! You wouldn't believe how many beginner videos miss this and it's very important.
I've been playing trumpet for 7 years, and this video was very helpful to me and other beginners.
(also nice trumpet)
Hey thanks!
This is great thank you. 47 yo Guitarist/Bass player decided to learn trumpet. Yamaha rental trumpet arriving with courier today. Wish me luck !!
Good luck, you got this!!
Wonderful instruction methodology, clear, human and organized
Wow thanks!!
My kindergarten son Jameson picked up my high school trumpet and is already loving it and loves this. It's very helpful. Just wanted to say thank you.
Love hearing this !
100% best trial I've seen so far thank you u genius
😇😇
I've been playing trumpet for some time, and I decided to randomly search up how to play and I wished I saw this video 6 years ago when I started, its so helpful.
❤️
At 63 years old I just this minute played my first correct notes on a trumpet! Tried in high school but switched to flute in frustration. I am taking tenor sax lessons now. But still have a desire to learn other things.
Thank you for making this video!
BTW: The horn I'm messing with is a C.G.CONN 22B circa 1951 with a Bach 10C mouthpiece I found at the flea market. I can't get at the serial number to look up the exact year of manufacture because it has a custom leather cover over the valve bodies. I don't want to mess with that. I have a cornet that has an exactly identical bell engraving with a serial number that is from 1951. So I figured this horn must be close.
Literally the best beginner trumpet tutorial on TH-cam.
I'm so glad you feel that way!!
@@AdamMeckler fk u u suk
@@mr_uboat4955 I'm so glad you feel that way!!
@@AdamMeckler don’t listen to em, he’s just jealous cus he isn’t as good as you, keep up the good work!
Fantastic clear sound advice Great for all ages,including me at 64🕺🎺🎶🕺🎺
I bought myself a pocket trumpet to try something new in life after years of playing the guitar.I am 52 and almost toothless after a hard life and started blowing rasberries down the trumpet tube and then i came across this video where you describe doing a sort of mmm thing,great advice,i am making a little bit of progress b3cause of it thanks!
Great news! Might be tough with teeth missing, but keep working at it!!
Pleasant and informative lesson. You are great, Adam!
I played French horn for decades - major symphony at age 22... Well, I moved on to other things in life and hadn't played a brass instrument in about 13 years. I realized that I REALLY missed playing a brass instrument, so what to do? I had an incredible range on French horn, so I said to myself, "Self, I want to play cornet!!" A year of Bb cornet (which I adore), I decided to get a trumpet. I got a very nice B&S Challenger II Bb silver trumpet (I liked the response and 'fatness' of the sound more than any Bach Strad models - a personal thing, for sure!)
2.7 years later, I have a great coach and am totally loving trumpet.
TRUMPET!!!! YEAH!!!!
Wow!! Amazing story. I love those Challenger horns. Good luck with everything!!
Adam, I am 46. Picked up a trumpet. Fell in love… found your video and it was like reading the first line of my favorite book. You are an excellent teacher and I am glad you took a minute to share your insights with the world. I will watch this video over and over. Subscribed.
The only tutorial that taught me the right way to blow into the horn. Amazing, thank you!
Thank you Adam! Very helpful!
Thank you! I am just learning trumpet, and this helped me SO MUCH!!!!!
Very clear and easy to follow. Well delivered....
Great video! Excellent explanations and instructions for beginners.
Incredible! Loooove the practical examples like with water. Really dope. Thanx! ❤
I got the busing well and before I watched this I found it pretty nice to just do a long buzz and press on the notes randomly. It helped show me what sound the notes made and what note they were. Also great video helped A LOT!
Thanks, glad it helped!
You are an excellent teacher. Thanks.
“It looks a little fancy” is an understatement lol. Us veterans know what it is😂😂
Great lesson. You are a wonderful teacher. My favorite players was Chet Baker and Clifford Brown. Thanks so much.
The best explanation on TH-cam.... I've looked at so many videos.... but this was by far the best
Thanks, Adam! Great lesson!
Thank you I am currently a French horn player and I just got a trumpet so I can learn it a tryout for jazzband and do marching band in highschool thank you a lot please make more
Thanks for sharing your knowledge. God bless.
Love these tips! I now play with much more ease and am currently expanding range bc of them! Thanks so much 🙃
Beginner player here, out of all the starting off videos i watched this one was the one that got the trumpet to sound.
I’m so glad to hear this. It can be so hard to get started but it’s super rewarding to stick with it and play consistently. Good luck!!
Awesome video. I don’t even have a trumpet and I watched the whole thing. Thank you
I have to say that M trick instantly improved my mouth form. Hats off to you good sur
Glad to hear it!
Excellent, thank you for your great communication & positivity !!
Thanks for watching, glad it helped!
Very descriptive. Your analogies make it easy to visualize what you should do. Thanks!
Awesome to hear! Thanks for watching!
This is the best tutorial I have seen. Thank you so much! It explains it so well and without any trouble.
Awesome to hear, glad you enjoyed it!
By FAR the best introduction to trumpet I've come across. So simple the way Adam explains it. I literally just picked up the trumpet, reviewed this video a couple of times, and I was able to play a couple of tunes using just the five notes explained here. Sure, I messed up a lot, but this is why we practice.
I’m a saxophone player, and have been hoping to pick up trumpet for a while now. Got it for Christmas. No one told me it would be this hard!
This video helped me get out CONSISTENT notes, god forbid. Thanks a ton! :D
Thank you for this because I want to learn more about it
Just started learning trumpet, best tutorial I've seen so far. Thanks man.
You're welcome! Thanks for watching~
Your instructions are very clear! Thank you for the great videos. My son is just starting and can already get some great sounding notes out just from watching your videos. You are a great teacher!
Thank you! I'm so glad you've found my videos and that they are helping. More coming soon!
very helpful teaching me how to blow in a trumpet.
Great tutorial took me back to my starter days
thanks for this video great results already
Thank you! Your instruction really helped me get some decent sounds out of my new trumpet. Trumpet is my new pandemic stay at home hobby. I played flute back in high school and still play a bit for fun, but I always wanted to try trumpet.
That's a big switch! My wife is a flute player. Hardest part for her playing trumpet is the lip position. Good luck!
Thank you for sharing this tutorial. It was great my son was able to follow the instructions very easily. Super helpful tutorial.
Great to hear, thanks for watching!
Bravo brother. Great teaching. Thanks
My pleasure!
This is great! I’ve seen some great players insist that we’re supposed to “buzz” into it to play. I’m just starting and am having trouble with consistent tone. I’ll focus less on the buzz next session. TY
Best tutorial....if you want to make notes....immediately.....brilliant
really enjoyed the lesson
My son started trumpet this year. This video is beyond helpful!! Great explanations and very easy to understand.
Glad it was helpful!
This tutorial is so good, Its so clean
🙏🏼🙏🏼 Happy practicing!
I’m 34 and I’ve been singing professionally for many years and playing guitar. I’m thinking about giving this a shot. It’s just so cool!
Good luck!! Biggest thing is that you focus on tone production first. Just play long notes every day for a while before trying to do much else. Everythint will be easier if you can make a consistent sound on notes from middle G up to C in the staff, and middle G down to C below the staff. I have a “second five notes” video that goes up to that C in the staff you can check out on my channel!
32 year old here, picked up trumpet on a whim. So you DON'T buzz your lips?! Everything I thought I knew was a lie. This is a fantastic video, thank you.
Ha! Well…we still say “buzz the mouthpiece” and “buzz the lips” but technically, that’s not what’s happening inside the mouthpiece. I think understanding this can really help new trumpeters make a better sound on the horn!
I’ve never heard that before and I’ve been playing (as an amateur) on and off for 40 years. First thing I was ever taught was to buzz my lips. Will try thinking of it your way next time. Mind blown.
this is a great video for beginners. thanks
Wow. I'm now more motivated than ever to play the trumpet. Thanks for this video
thanks! this is really great
YOU ARE BEST COACHER. THANK YOU.
It's a great video. Thanks
brilliant enthusiastic fun clear and exciting 😆😆😆
thank You so much 🤩🤩🤩 🙌🙌🙌
think i’m gonna go look to buy a horn 🎺🎺🎺 i like the wee half size ones 🤔🤔🤔 and thoughts, like is that a good idea, them being smaller are they quieter etc 🔊🔊🔊 🔉🔉🔉 ❓❓❓
Literally best video ever!
Hi Adam, I concur with Carlo exactly! You are right on. I could actually play the 5 notes. Thx!!
Thanks for making this for me
Dude.... youre a amazing teacher!
Eyyyyyy thanks!
Great video, going to have my 9 yo watch this. Buying a Yamaha 2330 tonight!
Thank you!!
Nice!!
Great tips... Thanks a lot!
Thank you so much for this video!!! Started playing trumpet yesterday and couldn't figure out how to okay WITHOUT lip buzz!! Buzzing made my lips feel scoured!! I tried your technique tonight just using my mouthpiece and it worked!! Looking forward to trying it when my landlady leaves again!
Nice! It is a bit different when you only use the mouthpiece. The instrument actually makes the buzz feeling happen even easier. Good luck! (Try playing in to a pillow to mute the sound of the horn if you have neighbors that don't like the noise!)
Thanks so much
Thank you!..that's very good..
2nd day on the trumpet and this video helped me immensely 😊
Awesome!!
For some reason ..your tutorial is like your in each one of our brains..no wonder your a teacher. This all made sense to me...
What a compliment! Thank you!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Im 30 and finally got a trumpet and your video is very helpful. Can you please make more.
