There's not really much more to it. Just keep working on it. Let the air leak out through the lips rather than forcing it out. Focus on the "whisper" aspect and you'll get there. How do you whisper your voice? Similar concept on the trumpet.
Great video, Brian! I'm trying to change my whole approach to trumpet playing (as I realised my former approach was completely inefficient). Would these exercise aid in retraining the air direction? I used to blow very far down in the cup and now trying to blow through into the middle and release the pressure on the top lip
Again, something no other tutorial video mentions. Thanks.
Thank you so much for making this video. Im pretty much a beginner but I was able to reproduce these techniques after watching. Thanks you.
Woah! I learned all of these things from former Hickman students at ASU!!!
My lips start to vibrate when I start the whisper tone..How do I provint that from happening ?
it is difficult to do if people have thick lips?
Can you go more in depth on the whisper tone? I can't seem to get those out

Are the 'pop' tones articulated with the diaphragm?
Would you suggest starting a practice session beginning with whisper tones on the mp? Just barely getting the tone going but perfectly clear?

Thank you! It sounds like you have a pretty good assessment of your situation. These exercises will definitely help you play more efficiently.
This is so difficult haha
