Maestro David Hickman is a wise and powerful guide, eloquent and serious, clear and precise. Thanks a lot for the solid elements of practice and the elegant way to explain such complex and often obscure concepts.
I'll tell you what Dave, you've absolutely changed my game. I'm on day 19 of pedals and lips bends. Thank you so much. Notes I "had" are usable. It's about keeping that bottom lip engaged
Ole, my books purposely did not get into specifics about embouchure puckering. I wanted to leave that to individual teachers working with students. The video gets into my own teaching techniques. -- Dave
I just bought a trumpet. I don’t know how to get a sound. I blow but it sounds like a deflating tire. Don’t know how to blow so I get a musical sound. Very upsetting. Can you help?
Hi David! Thank you so much for posting these videos. It's incredible to have access to information from such a legendary player. I personally find that I feel pressure in my throat, as if I am "swallowing" the sound, when I bend the pitch down. I equate the sensation to singing with one's nose plugged. Do you have any experience with this kind of thing?
Dave, what you mention here about the lower lip (tiredness, a bit more pressure on it, puckering, etc) is not found in Author's Comments in the book "15 Advanced Enbouchure Studies". You also refere to the your big "Trumpet Pedagogy" book, but is this "lower lip thing" something you realised after making the lip bend studies book?
How much compression is necessary and how much compression is too much to play the high notes? I am a beginner and when I practice to play high notes, I start sweating after 15 minutes or so and I have to activate the air conditioner.

Thank you, feeling stronger embouchure already.

Mr. Hickman: Is the embouchure studies book available in bass clef?
No, but it would be easy to figure it out.
@@davidhickman1966 Yes but I'm lazy. 🤭
David. How does one purchase your book on Lip Bends ?
Through www.HickmanMusicEditions.com. Look for "15 Progressive Embouchure Studies" in the etudes and methods section of the catalog.
