As a Professional Trumpet Player specializing in the Upper Register, I am not a Trombone Player nor French Horn Player, but I can show you that I am able to demonstrate the upper register on other brass instruments!
(this is just a short clip from the exact same solo Dave Steinmeyer did on DON'T CRY OUT LOUD. If you scroll down you can hear the real trombonist ( hahahahah which is not me ) play that chart!
As a former band director, I have taught Trombone, French Horn, Baritone, etc.... so I have a good working knowledge of each instrument, but brass playing is brass playing and my 50 proven techniques that work for trumpet also WORK for You too!!
RANGE
ENDURANCE
ACCURACY
TONE
POWER
CONTROL
As a Professional Trumpeter, I have had the opportunity to chat with other brass players about the above issues we all face.
DAVE STEINMEYER is absolutely unfreakinbelieveable in "FEELINGS". You may not like this type of style or pop song at all, but LISTEN to Dave's Tone, Power, Endurance, Upper Register!!!!!!
Dave has the right attitude and demonstrates on trombone that beautifully sounding, soaring high notes aren't just for Trumpet Players!
As a LOWER BRASS player, you don't have an excuse! POWER, TONE, RANGE is not just for trumpet players.
LISTEN TO ROGER BOBO, DAVID STEINMEYER, BILL WATROUS, DAVID CHILDS, DALE CLEVENGER.....Those guys are absolute MONSTERS on their respective instruments and the one thing they all have in common: CHOPS!
BILL WATROUS, DALE CLEVENGER, DAVID CHILDS, DAVID STEINMEYER, ROGER BOBO, TROMBONE LESSONS, FRENCH HORN LESSONS, EUPHONIUM LESSONS, BARITONE LESSONS, ALTO HORN LESSONS TUBA LESSONS , ,
The Trumpet is a great instrument whether jazz trumpet or solo trumpet, but requires a very strong embouchure. What kind of trumpet notes require this type of strong embouchure? High C, Double C, and Triple C all would require a strong embouchure to play these high trumpet notes. A trumpeter must take trumpet lessons to increase skill level. Trumpeters like Maynard Ferguson playing the trumpet solo, Give It One, and Bill Chase playing the trumpet solo, Get It On, had a very strong trumpet embouchure. Trumpets are made out of brass and make a beautiful sound when used in trumpet songs. James Last Orchestra also featured many fine trumpet players. This site has trumpet tips, trumpet websites, trumpet sites, trumpet teachers, trumpet tutors, and trumpet lessons. Don't forget about TPIN, Trumpet Player's International Network, ITG, and International Trumpet Guild.
