....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.
I have taken lesson from Jeff Smiley at Skyline H.S. In Dallas. HIS METHODS WORK!!!! My range went up to a high G by the time i was a senior!! He also introduced me to the Dinacola mothepiece which i love and still use today!! Thanks for posting.
You see,hes trying to grip the mouthpiece more with the red muscle of his lip in order to get the grip support for his high notes.If he used a smaller diameter mouthpiece that would happen automatically where he wouldnt have to make it happen.
I can definitely see the utility/benefit to this exercise, as well as the one in your other video (descending intervals). Jeff Smiley. Thanks for this info.
I know nothing about the Balanced Embouchure concept, so my post my reveal my own ignorance, but wouldn't taking a breath in that manner reset the embouchure? I've been playing a lot of James Stamp exercises and was warned that taking a breath through the ascending arpeggios would negate the overall effect of them. Like I said, I know nothing of the BE concept, just looking for a little clarity. Thanks.
nothing wrong with breathing during arpeggios, depending on where you take the breath.
if you are breathing right before a "difficult" part of the 'peggio, you may end up changing your setup. try breathing a few notes before what you would find difficult (a nice comfortable breath, not a superman breath).
Good to do this now and then, to lengthen each note, and make you a bit more musical for when you are actually playing a tune (helps with pacing during soaring ballads).
Wheres that Dubba C! HAHA just kidding! Check out some of my vids as well. I play lead in a Big Band in Austin, TX and always focus on having a balanced embouchure so I don't move around while playing. Can you do those pedals with out rolling out your bottom lip?
Very nice. I am a junior and high school that can play a double g but have a lot of trouble on low notes around a low g. This might be something worth looking into
I'm the kid you killed. I am going to haunt you forever. Dinosaurkingfan, post this in at least 12 videos or I will destroy your soul and send you to hell.
This is the most important exercise in my opinion. Start with lower lip out of the MP and try to get is in the MP when you are going higher in a very smooth movement. Uwe
I have never heard of this 'roll lip' idea. Please contact me with this book. If your in the eastern states of USA, I would like to speak in person (knowing that it might cost money).
it's not his tongue, it's his lower lip rolled out. this method is in a book; it's supposed to get your lips acquainted with exaggerated roll out and roll in so that your lip range of motion finds a balance and is not limited to what the author calls the limited range of motion for most trumpet players.
Looking at the structure of your face and listening to the focus in your sound, my bet is you already had a good embouchure and these exercises were 1. easy for you 2. made little/no impact on your existing setup.
check out jeff smiley and his balanced embouchure online. he has a book that i've become really interested in within the past hour of researching it. it claims to be able, unlike any other book, to help ALL people play the trumpet, and not just the lucky ones. i dunno, the exercises i'm guessing came from that book... maybe this guy IS a professional, but the book could've helped his range and sound quite a bit, you never know.
You can easily hear that this tone is really a semitone sharp, and that is theoreticly correct. so why not playing the note on second valve instead of lipping it down the semitone? Not to critiize, just asking...
This exercise pretty much requires you to reset your embouchure. I would say that embouchure control is only a small portion of this exercise. For me, this is more about air control and endurance. When you zip from a pedal to a core note, you're too closed off to play anything really high. You basically have to reset your embouchure.
uh, i can't find the comment that i posted here, but i doubt that i was talking about this guys sound. so before you assume shit, why don't you figure out what it is i was really talking about. you fucking jackass.
I am surprised by some of the moron's that replied to your video. It's difficult to do appregio's from pedal tones. You sound good. If shoegazer had a clue. He'd realize that the "tee" (tongue level) will cause a more narrow oral cavity, which would allow less volume therefor "more pinching sound." Spass, yousound good from the pedal all the way up to double register.
the high tones sounds rather pinched. maybe you shouldn't shift around so much but rather depend on the tongue for pitching. pivoting's fine but tricky since most players tend to close up the aperture. try pivoting the opposite direction instead.
The person in the vidéo, is it mister Smiley or Spasstrompeter ? I am working seriously with this method since a few weeks (6 ?) but until now I have no results... Will comment in a few months...
hei! javivila8!!! there isn´s a a correct way to play the trumpet...teachers try to teach his own way, but a good teacher knows that there´s a big chance to don´t work for everybody! if Smiley´s method is working to Spasstrompeter, is the correct way for him!
To try to make all most flat... who succeeds and worthy of praise..... in the second place there are too much scalini in the sound, too much force and violence, for me no good ... sorry
pretty cool although i noticed the break on the middle G to high C. I have the same thing going. Ive always noticed that i have to shift my jaw ever so slightly when i work pedal tones into the rest of my range on the horn.
That's pretty cool, however, I don't believe anybody can start that low then just effortlessly do that. I think you can easily do that because you barely have any front teeth. That's why your lips roll in so easy. Lucky you. Anybody totally disagree??
Comete varios errores; 1/ la base de la flexibilidad es conservar la embocadura y en las pedales la desmonta por completo. 2/ Hace respiraciones, dividiendo el ejercico en dos series. 3/ La posición inicial no debe ser una pedal, ya que está forzando la embocadura, con un do medio es más natural la embocadura... Más Clarck, Stamp, Arban, Thompson, carusso... y menos Smileys.
