Greetings from Nottingham England. As someone else said some people just love to hate!! Your videos are great stuff Charlie... I think anyone with half a brain can see how many years of slogging at it are behind them and that you have really thought through how best to get your take on these concepts across. They're really helping me with some problems I'm trying to iron out in my technique. Mainly accuracy especially as I become a stronger trumpeter, I'm trying to push my tempo up to bop type speeds. So these videos are helping me really reassess my fundamentals. After all everything else is built upon them. One thing I'm finding with the scissor handle 4 step setup (which is amazing in terms of understanding what's really going on and the use of face muscles to play higher is something nobody has ever said to me but was a eureka moment.) is that I sometimes use a little too much pressure. I've never had a problem with pressure as I'm a singer so I already had a good idea about air support when I picked up the horn. Any advice on using your 4 step setup process whilst making sure not to use excessive pressure would be very welcome. Anyway I trust your advice simply from hearing and seeing your beautiful playing m'man. 😉 I should really chase you for a Skype lesson sometime as you're totally my fave KZfaq teacher! All best, David.

Charlie, I've been a trumpet teacher and professional player for for almost 30 years and have studied and played with some of the best in the business in the US and abroad and what you teach is spot on. I recommend your videos to others for good teaching videos. I like your humble approach to teaching and your methods are correct unlike some ego maniacs on you tube, posting videos just to show off some screech notes and not to actually teach quality of sound first before screech notes (and I'm a lead player lol). You're a top rate trumpet teacher and anyone who puts thumbs down on this video has NO idea what they're talking about in regards to the mechanics of the trumpet. I'd love to actually hear THEM play and teach. Keep doing what you're doing, you have educated more trumpeters than you know, young and old! Great work and blessing to you!

This was a great lesson for me. I never could buzz well without the trumpet. Even doing the mouthpiece alone was not consistent. You expressed this in a way I could really relate with. I am working on the lining up of my lips. I was guilty of the over/under slip of the lips. Please keep you videos coming I am disabled and can't get out easily but I am a student of music and the trumpet.

The reasons I subscribed almost 2 years ago enforces all the valuable comments below: First, Charlies sound is excellent! Charlie is humble, his personality enhances his coaching, NOT getting in the way like other YT posters (you know who I'm talking about LOL), (2) I have benefited from every point Charlie has made, (3) Charlie pays attention to detail. I am one of the "comeback player" clan; I put my horn down after college, 25 years went by, now I play more musically and more relaxed than ever! THANK YOU CHARLIE!

Regarding the camera, you can set a 'focus point' on your face which will tell the camera to auto focus around that area. You could also choose to go manual on this occasion as you are staying in the same position

@PeterACasanave 5 жыл бұрын

@Richard Brotzman Agreeing with both Matt & Richard. If you have more light it will allow you to have more range of motion without changing focus. (Depth of field. Note: I learned on film, and Matt knows more about modern cameras than me.) I would try manual mode with more light -- especially in front of you and only lighting you. Light yourself like the soloist you are. Then be a star and stay in the spotlight. Since the image quality is so good, perhaps you could use a higher ISO; the trade off would be a bit of graininess.

Thank you! For 3 years in high school I held the first trumpet seat in Marching/Concert Band, and Jazz Band. The only issue was, I could only hit high notes momentarily by pressing mouthpiece hard against my my mouth and blowing aggressively. This video just taught me what two band directors and 6 years of playing did not. Trying to use this technique I realize I will have establish a new embouchure and develop it, because my old embouchure was heavily dependent on mouthpiece pressure against my lips.

Thanks for the great videos, Charlie. At 53, I'm picking up my horn again after many years, and your tips and thoughtful approach to teaching are helping tremendously...especially the embouchure lessons. My problem had always been too much pressure on my lips and my range always suffered. After a month of playing 30 minutes a day and watching your videos, my chops are starting to feel better and I feel my range is progressing (for me that's a D or occasional E above the staff, which even in my playing days was a stretch). It's a slow process, but I'm feeling motivated to see how far I can get. Keep teaching us!!

@chasefreak 6 жыл бұрын

There are a few rules that NEED to be followed when doing any lip (free form) buzzing. 1. The chops must be saturated w saliva (even if you normally play dry) 2. Never lip buzz on a fatigued (tired) embouchure 3. The airflow must ALWAYS be downward 4. NEVER tongue attack a lip buzz, ALWAYS use a whooooo no tongue air attack 5. Never lip buzz below a 2nd line G in the staff 6. Never just use lip buzzing as a warm-up Lip buzzing is generally used to firm up a flabby chin area and helps with increasing embouchure vibrating fluency overall. Charlie, I "briefly" met you w Wayne Daniels at Sunfest '92 at the Arturo Sandoval show. Then saw you again w Wynton in '94 when you guys were trading solos. I never got a chance to play w you though as I was just getting my chops together when you left West Palm around '95-ish

Why airflow has to go down? When playing trumpet you want it to go straight I think

thanks Charlie-- every athletic endeavor relies on maintaining "form" and brass embouchure is no different. We are creating the reed that a sax player simply installs in a mouthpiece --out of lip tissue!!--- not always easy and often requires your approach with buzzing and mpc then playing with singing sound. Some lucky people seem to just "get it" but I sure have been helped by your explanations and have performed some very difficult music on trumpet. I will add these lip buzz ideas to my regular practice. thanks!

Great video, thanks for all of your great work! Regarding camera focus: I agree with other commenters that for this particular video, you probably could get by with switching to manual focus and using a smaller aperture (larger f-stop number). However, when shooting a more dynamic scene, having accurate auto-focus is desirable. I'm guessing you have an older model Canon. Newer models since the Canon 70D (including the 80D, 800D, and 77D) have a much improved autofocus technology called "Dual Pixel Autofocus" which does not suffer from the issues you are encountering.
