My brain knows it, but hard to stay relax when going up to 2nd G. Thanks for tip

Bobby “Fleshy Meat Reed” Spellman at it again, always a pleasure and a truly great teacher.

I’m glad I found your channel. I played trumpet in marching band. Haven’t picked up the horn since 1982. It’s like totally starting all over again. Your videos have been a great help. Thank you.

A short meditation before the start of the show helps a bit for me. Thanks for the tips!

"Meat Reeds." I love it. Thanks for the tips ,as I occasionally drop a Clam or two at the most crucial moments. A psychological tip I use that helps is a 3 point focal group: One is look at an object that's relatively close, next notice something in your peripheral vision and thirdly, focus on a body part, ie. your knee or foot. I find it helps to shift your mind and lets the muscle memory do it's thing.

Some great advice! I'm at this place right now. Very good teacher here!

always a great man and funny love the videos💚

I love trumpet with bob

Great video. I've also found the exercises in John Daniel's book "Special Studies for Trumpet" to be quite helpful in developing the embouchure.

Love your vids as always and enjoying the humour in them! great job once again!

Please can you do a video on playing keys on the trumpet. Probably how to play all the keys on trumpet with a keyboard

Vibration (of the lips) is greater FREQUENCY for higher tones, not "speed", not "faster". " speed" is distance/time. Vibration is cycles/time. Understand? Relaxed lips play very low tones. Higher pitches do require more effort from the muscles around the lip embouchure. One can certainly improve strength AND efficiency of effort with practice but uh , no, there is no such thing as "relaxed" playing. Especially high and loud tones. I do play low soft tones to begin every day. Congratulations on playing the pedal resonance (first harmonic) on your pedal example. I begin with that daily.

fleshy meat reeds!!

I learn more and more! How good is the trumpet :)
