Trumpet Lesson - Magic of Half steps bends @ Phil Parker

“Being able to do a half-step bend at ‘piano’ like that is exactly WHY I can play so loud. It’s exactly the same function. In order to do it that softly and that cleanly, my lips are open in such a way that they’re ready for fortissimo air to come through”

What mouthpiece is he using

[@stonex3077]

[@jgmiller804]

Sounds closer to a whole step

[@vincentfranklin3010]

@JGMiller it's a concert F natural to a concert E, just one half step

[@jgmiller804]

​@@vincentfranklin3010i mean you're right, i guess it was just at times the E sounded a little flat or something it was weird
