Hiya man. I've been following you since I started 7 years ago. I am now going my grade 8 and trumpet is one of my greatest passions and I want to thank you for being here
I’m a multi instrumentalist who plays primarily stringed and percussive instruments. During lockdown I decided that I wanted to finally learn my favorite instrument which is a saxophone. Oh my God, I have so much more respect for them now than I already did before. My face has been hurting for like two years now. 😂
Step 4 was my game changer… by stretching my bottom lip - this engages my corners. I’m gonna keep practicing but this tip really helped to get a natural feel and sound 🎉
@TheBlackTrumpeter Your videos are informative, yet you keep things light. Embouchure is usually difficult to explain. Ya nailed it🌻 Horn is a blessed hobby for me. You've helped me get back into it with many of your tutorials. Your jazz progression ones are really good🎶
For some of us, we have no choice but to tuck our bottom lip over. I have an overbite so a normal embouchere is sprt of impossible for me. Yes, my horn angle is very low, but i can fix it with a brnt mouthpiece. I am still able to produce a good sound.
I'm glad blowing straight works for you, and I understand that you got to get clicks and views, but saying this is a "perfect embouchure", or that not doing this will damage your trumpet playing is pretty misleading.
@@TheBlackTrumpeter Like I said, I'm glad it works for you, but that doesn't mean it works for the majority of players. Most players blow down and should (downstream). Some blow up and should (upstream). Very few blow straight. I post this because my students see videos like this and start "damaging" their own playing with techniques that are incongruous with their face structure.
@@TheBlackTrumpeter It depends on their lips, teeth, etc... I tend to align a lot with Donald Reinhart's ideology. My point is to avoid a one size fits all approach.
Hello, I’m greatly inspired by your channel and I ve been watching you for a while and I am a 8th grade trumpetest at my school and I got 1st chair in district band music and I have been wondering what trumpet you use because I really love the sound of it and I’ve also been trying to play the jazz pieces you have recorded for us and it’s been going pretty well so far but I am trying to up my level in the trumpet industry so if you see this it would be really great if I would be able to know the name of your trumpet, it would be greatly appreciated ❤
Hey! So I’ve watched some of your videos and they’re really great! But I need some help. I got into this exclusive band as a trumpet 1 chair 3, anyways the audition had no rangy stuff in it so it was pretty easy for me to play. But the pieces I’ve been given to preform are a different story. Range is EVERYWHERE!! And I just can’t do range! I need some tips to be able to improve my range fast, the concert is in a few weeks! Do you have any quick pointers?
It’ll be easier to give you personal feedback if I can see the music you’re working on for your concert and hear you play. Email me at contact@onlinetrumpet.studio or Dm me on Instagram @theblacktrumpeter
@@MinisterMime4000 here’s a mouthpiece placement video I created years ago th-cam.com/video/sQCJHFLliBA/w-d-xo.htmlsi=DX-lOpylLgBzEA9g but I will update it and created a new one.

I have never been able to buzz before this, you just unlocked trumpet playing for me, thank you🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I'm picking up trumpet as my 4th instrument so i can play in my school band this fall, I've been heavily relying on your channel, thanks!

Super! I’m a Jazz Trombone/Trumpet Student, i’ll start to follow you!
You are so very much appreciated 🎶
Thank you. What do you like about this video?

The part when he said to fix your lip really helped me with the quality of my sound 😮 thank you so much first day learning 😅
Great! Which step are you referring to that really helped the quality of your sound?
This helped so much, thank you.
Well said! Love it!
I just watched this video and played my trumpet, i’m a beginner and I’ve never played such a clear note.
Congrats! So this video helped you play with a clear sound?
Very much, I was struggling with forming the higher notes and this helped a lot.
🤔 Interesting, I will give it a go. Thanks for sharing 🙏🏿
You’re welcome. What inspired you to play trumpet?

Thanks for sharing! I have an overbite too.
Thank you for this advice
Thank you!
You’re welcome

this is how to form perfect embouchure for any brass intrument (other than french horn)
Love it!!

It’s not misleading because it actually happens. It has happened to me and countless others.

I’m open to learn my friend.
How do you teach embouchure formation to your students?

Thanks for enjoying the channel Jairo. I play on an B&S 3143 Challenger II Series Bb Trumpet with Reverse Leadpipe Silver
@@TheBlackTrumpeter Thank you so much and keep on doing well❤️
BEST!

Try don't blame me by Taylor Swift on the trumpet
When I play the trumpet it makes this deep echo sound can you help me with it
Thanks
A persons embochure is completely unique to them, there are too many variables to say "only this way works"
Got a point there. Look at Maynard s embouchure.
Tell that to 1000s of music educators teaching the same trumpet embouchure to every beginner in public/private schools.
Hi I wantcto know how to play
I want to know how to play
What trumpet do you use?
B&S Challenger II
What is a good mid tier trumpet?
It depends on what part of the journey you’re on. Would you consider yourself a beginner?
Yes I am a beginner, but I love playing the trumpet and my dream trumpet is the Yamaha xeno.
should my bottom lip be touching my bottom teeth or just be close to it?
The inside of your bottom lip will be touching your teeth when you put your mouthpiece on your embouchure
Hey do you still post on Patreon?
I need simpler. Or a demonstration at least I guess
A demonstration of what?
@@TheBlackTrumpeter hmm. I guess I need to know where exactly my lips should touch the mouthpiece.
@@MinisterMime4000 gotcha👍🏾 I’ll make a video on mouthpiece placement. This video deals with what do before we place the mouthpiece on the lips.
@@TheBlackTrumpeter thanks man! I appreciate you!!!
