Bugle Instruction (Pt. 1)

[HazMatMedia]

Dude, well done. Very well done. As a fellow reenactor I salute your efforts. I've always wanted to learn the bugle, but you probably play it better then I ever will. :P

Nice dude, nice! I just bought a bugle and would like to be able just to get some different notes out of it, haven´t been doing a great job at it so far :s How do you do it? Blow harder or something with your lips or something? Thanks!

[Toccoa101506]

@Kokkie024 Yes, you have to tighten your lips and blow harder to get the higher notes. You can loosen your lips to play lower notes.

@Toccoa101506 Hey! Thanks man! I´m kind of getting the hang of it now... Waking up my neighbours with Reveille haha

[Britfan06]

my granddad has a old ww2 bugle that i want to try and learn to play any tips or advise ??

[Toccoa101506]

@jalen77232 You could buy a book on how to play the bugle. Then go from there. Or you can just watch other simple vidoes on here (YouTube) and learn.

I have ancestors who fought in every war in this Nation and not one, but "two" forefathers who fought in General George Washington's Army. One on my Maternal side: named "Utter", written on his headstone, and one on our Paternal side: named "Johnson". I am so proud to see our wonderful traditions carried on by such a fine person, such as yourself. God protect you and keep you healthy all throughout your dear life. I wish there were more like you.

KID you are good, it had to be nerve racking, in a couple years you will be great, buglers are needed.

I have different style bugle, it's more of a cavalry style (smaller and, I think a little lower) where can I get some good help with it? P.S. I have until July to get it down packed, I now some calls and cane play it very well, but I still need a little help.

im a trumpet player and when i try to play a bugle it only plays the notes that an open valved trumpet wuld play such as low c, mid g, mid c, high g, high e, high c, etc. how to i play the notes in between

[Toccoa101506]

@koolmoedee95 Those are the only notes that a bugle can play.

[koolmoedee95]

@Toccoa101506 I often hear bugle songs playing a bunch of diff notes

[Toccoa101506]

@koolmoedee95 Thats because they can either play higher or lower notes OR they are not playing the bugle.

[Alarm6868]

@Alarm6868 You're welcome

Awesome Job! Gifted, and very mature... I am impressed. As a boy scout bugler I could never get them right.
