I did the pencil exercise for like 10 seconds, and for the first time in my life I played a high E that was fat AND connected. You showed me this a year ago in person, and I feel like I'm only now starting to understand it. Thanks so much Larry!
Mr. Meregillano thank you for transmitting true information. I've seen some guys that claim to have studied with Roy but when they teach pencilexercise they tell you to put it between your lips and blow. They never mention rthe teeth. as if the act of putting pencil in mouth alone is a good thing for embouchure. You are on the money, please keep it up for all those players who can't afford lessons right now. You are a treasure, thank you.
I just need to know how much lessons are and you sir have sold yourself! Very nice by the way. I'm the first chair in my high school concert band and soloist in my school's marching band.
What i am referring to is the muscular development that occurs when you are meeting the compression of air.. Becarefal as a weak inflated lip can pull the vibrating apertore out of allighnme
the pencil exercise is importan i discovered when the pressure was on max air is leaking on the left side on my lips does that mean that i must reconsidder my mouthpice plasement the air wil always escape the easyest wayout ?? i normaly plays in the middel
I'm having trouble playing the high G above the staff, and I'm plowing fast air and I have a small ambusher, but all that comes out is weird sounds. What should I do?
Correct me if I'm Okay i did this and it truly brought my range up a hella lot however it feels as if the wrong muscles are being worked. My cheeks are being worked out and are getting very thick and muscular. does that mean I'm doing wrong?
The pen should be held firmly in your teeth. The muscles of the face should be relaxed. The muscular tension builds to meet the compression of the air.
Is the Costello- Stevens book the same as the kiss or MF embourchure ? That is, a pucker ? That book is not an easy read and I only have the first 48 pages. I respect you trying to explain this difficult thing and thanks so much.
Nice to meet you. I am attracted to Big band lead trumpet and aim at it. But I can play until High B,C... Since, I want to refer to this video. But My English ability is very poor... If you can, please tell me 'pencil exercise" on the text in detail???

Nice tips ... I'm a high school trumpet player and your tips came in nice for the higher note :)
This makes me feel great! I just want to pass it on
Thank you Larry! You made it so simple and understandable!!!
What happens if you can’t align teeth because of an under bite or over bite?

Same here. Trying to build up muscles in left side of the donut
I'm having trouble playing the high G above the staff, and I'm plowing fast air and I have a small ambusher, but all that comes out is weird sounds. What should I do?
YOU SIR ARE SO CORRECT.
How do you blow air through the pencil? Do you have to make a small hole och remove the actual inc-case and just use the outer body?
Correct me if I'm Okay i did this and it truly brought my range up a hella lot however it feels as if the wrong muscles are being worked. My cheeks are being worked out and are getting very thick and muscular. does that mean I'm doing wrong?
So the litte bubbles of air I have under my bottom lip while playing is muscle? My tutor is trying to fix it....
Your tutor is correct. There should not be any air pockets between the teeth and the lips
how would you know?
I'd like to hear your definition of compression as I am unfamiliar with the term in trumpet context. Is there somewhere you explain it?
Compression comes from not only the stomach muscles but also the muscles of the face.
Are you muscling your lips inside where the mouthpiece goes? I cant imagine you could be otherwise it would kill the sound right?
I use a Maynard style unfurl
I play the Trombone and the Trumpet. but believe that the same concepts apply to any brass instrument
Larry Meregillano yes.
what do you mean by the correct way.?????
There are many correct ways. Perhaps I should have said efficient
Hi! I like to know what size and brand mouthpiece you play? Thanks!! Clem.
Bach 7c
Clemente Ochoa Soto it doesn't matter what mouthpiece you use. It's how you hold your chops that matters.
does this work for trombone?
Of course. I also play trombone
Does this work for sax
I,m really going to work on that and see what happens wish me luck:)
I will try this new found exercise and try to build up my poor stamina!.
Did you succeed?
Que vc está falando aí homem. ? põe tradutor pra todos entender !!!

Dizziness when playing high notes is acceptable?
Дмитрий Бра i later discovered the source of my dizziness and had heart surgery
