    first, what an incredible lesson! around 4:13 that perfect 698Hz speaks so clearly it sounds like it was EQed to pop out. al's tone is nuts

    Great lesson, Allen. And what you say really applies to all the woodwinds as well-smooth, steady, supported airstream and accurate fingers. Relaxed, calm. Great lesson for players of any level-it gave me a new insight on something I hadn't thought about for a long time! Thank you! I hope all is well with you-it's been several years since we crossed paths. Playing with you, hearing you, was-and is-always a real treat! All the best-JG

      Woodwind, brass, we tend to categorize. But at the end of the day, they are all WIND instruments first and foremost.

    Constant AIR is the key to everything. Once you learn HOW to meter your air, you can start to learn how to do everything else. You MUST learn HOW to release the air EVENLY over time.... NO VIBRATO !!

    Does anyone else see when he takes a breath at 4:12 it looks like his whole torso expands but his shoulders do not raise at all? How does he do that?

    • @songandwind72
      @songandwind72 29 дней назад

      That wasn't a breath. That was a movement of the body based on prior mis-training that mimicked inhalation.

    The problem is me being too excited to sound like a badass with a new song I want to jam out with. Lolz
    Currently digging this 80’s song called Holding Back The Years by Simply Red.
    It’s got a nice trumpet melody in it. And the whole song sounds good on the trumpet, I find.

    • @FunnyGA1ex
      @FunnyGA1ex 2 месяца назад +1

      Some tunes just don’t transcribe well on the trumpet. Especially smooth seamless chromatic melodies. You have to really master note bending for those.

      Spot on. So many Dunning Krugers in the music pedagogy world. It's scary because many of them are established players but don't have a true understanding of cause and effect in music performance.
