Hi! Thank you for helping me with trumpet these years. Ive noticed there is a slight delay when I tongue notes between D and low F#, especially when I play soft. Do you have any tips that could help with that? Thank you!
Thank you for great explanation and example of how different D and T tonging sound makes. My son recently had to change his trumpet teacher and the teacher was teaching my son with “D” tonging and the former teacher was teaching with “T”. My confusion was gone thanks to you! Thank you.
Finally an explanation and demonstration!!!!. I'm just started and don't have a teacher so watching TH-cam. I'm only able to get several lower notes but a note like g above middle c is difficult. Any advice would be appreciated
Trust me on this bro. it might sound weird, but trust. Sit on the edge of your chair (and I mean the edge), straighten your shoulders, and tilt your horn UP. Keep your feet flat and push into the floor. Take a deep BELLY breath, don't move your shoulders. When you try to go higher, don't squeeze your face muscles, that can lead to bad habits. You want to tighten the corners of your mouth and make the hole in your lips smaller. You REALLY want to push the air. Practice like 30-50 minutes a day, and extra time wouldn't hurt at all. I promise, you WILL get there. It seems hard at first, but you just have to get in the groove. Learning something new is hard, but you can do it.
Awesome tips! 😊👍 I will get my ptrumpet Hytech in a couple of days. I bought a trumpet last year, but gave up because I struggled so much with the embouchure. I will try again, but have more patience and use more time this time. 😊 I think I returned the trumpet because my expectations was so high. I never thought it was so hard to learn to play. I will use a lot of time and gradually be better by following great guides like this. 😊
Great video! It remind me to my first lesson many years ago with my first teacher (without the skull and the fake tongue 😂). What do you think about the anchor tongue? Ten years ago I moved to this type of tonguing. I also met some players using tongue through teeth and they play great!
Interesting. I generally keep the tip of my tongue behind my bottom teeth. I then use the area just behind the tip of my tongue to touch the soft pallet for tonguing.
That’s where my tongue is even when I’m not playing the trumpet. Behind my top teeth gives me a speech impediment. I can feel that less tongue arching is behind the top teeth though for high notes
I've always instinctively played with the tip of my tongue touching/resting against my front bottom teeth. That's actually how I say my Ts and Ds, so I never realised that wasn't the norm until quite recently. My playing is fine, so I don't think it's causing me any issues. I'm trying to learn to tongue "normally", mostly to improve my flutter tonguing (I have no intention of actually switching), but I find that whenever I try to play high or loudly with this method, I get air escaping under my bottom lip, which of course ruins pretty much every aspect of my playing. Is there a trick to stop this from happening, or is the answer just to keep practising? Edit: If it matters, I don't sound like I have a speech impediment - it all sounds perfectly natural when I speak, so I guess it makes complete sense that I would sound significantly more natural tonguing like that than 'normally'. Also I just watched your new video on this style of tonguing. Idk if I inspired it or not (I almost certainly didn't but I can dream) but I enjoyed it either way! Thanks for acknowledging that this style exists.
@@tressel2489 Yeah, the actual 'T' sound is made with the bit of my tongue that's about an inch back from the tip, contacting the hard palate. Edit: actually more like 3/4 of an inch but still.
Observation: Meatbags have physical characteristics suited to playing brass instruments. I, on the other hand, lack the necessary physical characteristics to produce even a single tone on such an instrument. - HK47 (probably).
My first trumpet teacher didn't teach any tonguing or embouchure, so these basic videos are great for fixing my chops and playing!
Yeah, I taught myself so I have some bad habits
Thanks for this innovative and instructive lesson. Its going to help me alot!!
Your room with the skull and "tongue" reminds me of those magic shops where you buy a trick and go in the back to "learn the secret" 🙂
That was helpful. I've been finding articulation a little challenging. I'm gonna be trying that out.
You ate this up Bob
Best explanation EVER

Interestingly, the Arban method utilizes both (d for a more legato tonguing).

好棒，讲的太透彻，学习了
Thanks for sharing ❤❤
My first trumpet teacher told me to anchor my tip of the tongue on top of my bottom lip, because the lips produce vibration, and not the teeth.
Thank you for this great video 👍🏼👍🏼. If I may ask a question. How should I finish my note? Cut air with tongue? Or with air stream? Or both?
Thankyou sir

huh interesting! when you say Ts and Ds, presumably some other part further back on your tongue touches the top teeth/hard palate though?

Buenísimo, muy bien explicado y muy útil!!!

Bob. I need help. I can’t seem to put THE PARADE TO THE POST together. Is that tonguing sequence similar to going down on your girlfriend.
Hey Seth Rogen!
Meatbag!! You are a fan of the KOTOR battle droid, are you not?

@@karlrovey MA PEOPLE!!!
1. Would you like to become a brass instrument?
2. It's okay, you can play drums!
3. Shut up or I will sell your parts.
