....actually, quite informative and entertaining video. Just in case you play trumpet or another brass instrument, I think you might find some trumpet and brass tutorials quite intriguing over at YOURBRASSINSTRUCTOR's Channel.
@elduro0001 That's true for sure! I saw Doc Severinsen play a shit trumpet where he was using a rubber band to hold the water key and he wowed the whole audience and did some improv like a bad ass! The instrument definitely doesn't change whether you're a good player or not! Although, having a customized instrument (instrument/mouthpiece combo) is mostly to help you make different distinctive sounds for different performances and settings.
@Ledderzed That is the single greatest comment I have ever read on youtube. I have been preaching that for eons and finally, someone else on youtube of all places agrees.
the trumpet you play accounts for about 10% of what comes out the end, which is why pros can spend this much money on fantastic horns, because when you reach near perfection, 10% makes all the difference to your playing.
Adam Rapa's a great trumpet player...Those of you saying he plays like that because of the trumpet...you obviously have no clue of what you're talking about...to play like him it takes a lot of practice and years of playing....sure a good trumpet helps...But the trumpet does not make the trumpet player, it's his dedication and practice what makes him a good trumpet player.
obviously you're correct.... my trumpet teacher at byu-idaho could play the shit out of the trumpet... just beautful stuff. and he got his trumpet off ebay for $700. mine was $2100 and i can assure you that i can't play three times better than him just because my horn costs 3x as much. (i cant play 1/10 as good)
they are not 30000 dollars! The cheapest one you can get is around 10000 but most are 12-16 thousand but they are truly custom made so each horn has a different price.
I play the trumpwt and i used to play pretty tensed up. i started by holding the trumpet without squeezing, this also releives pressure from the lips and alows smoother airflow. so just start by relaxing you hands.
Pinky out of the ring. Some people focus on this for finger dexterity as well. Also in marching band for looks and so gloves don't get caught and ripped in/on the ring. or if you fall or something. Just keep the pinky out it will help.
Sergei doesn't play high notes very often, that doesn't mean he can't. His specialty is classical solos and you rarely see notes above high Eb in that literature.
And to be honest when you're technique and sound are as perfect as Sergei's, range doesn't really matter haha
It probably took his lifetime. A lady complimented Itzhak Perlman after his concert by saying, I'd give my life to play like that. Perlman responded: I did.
