Brian, a professional trumpet player and educator, is now prepared to play Lead Trumpet in most situations! He currently plays in several demanding groups and I have full confidence in his powerful, commanding lead trumpet style he now has gained! He is young and has the ability to take his playing to a level way beyond most average professional trumpet players!
Thomas, a professional trumpet player and educator from Sweden, is now prepared to play Lead Trumpet in most situations. His interest for the near future is landing a gig as lead trumpet on a cruise ship. In my opinion, he could get the call now to go out to sea and I would have full confidence he could easily play lead trumpet and set a good leadership style for the rest of the trumpet section. He is young and has the ability to take his playing to a level way beyond most average professional trumpet players!
Stephen is a professional trumpet player and educator, already possessing a good range and commanding lead/rock style with trumpet! He wanted to up his game by adding some extra high range, endurance and more power and that is exactly what happened! He plays in a very popular cover, corporate, party band in the New Jersey area and is well respected in the community as a fantastic, rockin' lead trumpet player!
Bob is a trumpet player from the era when trumpet players were like the rock stars of today! He has been around the block and has tremendous amount of experience and knowledge in regards to music and trumpet. Like almost all of us, he still had a desire to improve his trumpet upper register and high notes and made the decision to take action and take my 3 month course. Although Bob gained some decent range and endurance, I really feel like he will add another 2 to 3 notes to his top high notes by the end of this year making for a very, very successful outcome of working these 50+ techniques for UPPER REGISTER! Bob, it has been a pleasure knowing you and I hope that we can meet again sometime in the near future. You're a great trumpet player and I wish I had been born during a time when trumpet players were King!i
Travis is a hobbyist trumpet player who doesn't depend on playing his trumpet for a living. Yet, he plays in various groups in his local community including Church. His main focus was improving endurance, sound, and accuracy in the upper register. I remember how he first sounded to me almost 3 months ago and how he sounds now: Travis has developed a more pleasing and rich, resonant tone on notes above the staff. His pitch is more centered and he is more accurate as well. About a month ago, I remember receiving a call from Travis exclaiming that he had just hit his first High F above high C!!! I was personally thrilled because although he may not have realized it at the time, he had achieved almost all notes in the UPPER REGISTER- ( High C, High D, HIgh E, HIgh F, High G....above high c)...something many other trumpet players only dream about. My prediction is that in 6-8 weeks from now, Travis will be playing Double G's ( g above high c ) ! Way to go Travis! Keep up the good work.
This is Manny, professional trumpeter and Maynard Ferguson Tribute Trumpet Soloist! I am featuring both videos of Manny including this video testimony of my 50 techniques to TRUMPET UPPER REGISTER 3 MONTH COURSE and Manny being featured on Maynard Ferguson's Trumpet Song HEY JUDE. You can watch Manny play HEY JUDE in the other video on my sight!
Manny really got fantastic results from my upper register course....he just completed it 10 days ago from the date of this video upload!
Amazingly, he can now play up to Triple F right above Double C!
He started this course with a decent double G, but recently, I have heard him knock Double B's and Double C's out of the park.
One thing is for sure: If I get a chance to watch Manny and his band, New Era Jazz Band, perform some Maynard Solos, I'll be sure put extra gel in my hair as Manny's power and volume is at a level that will part your hair!
Congrats Manny! Absolutely spectacular success from this Course!
YOU MAKE MAYNARD PROUD!
You can watch and listen to Manny in action below. Manny's video testimony marks a first for this site because not only does he talk about the course and what he got out of it, he also demonstrates his proficiency in the Upper Register. Cool!
Jose runs his own Hi-Tech business during the day and turns into a professional trumpet at night!
As you heard at the end of his video, he is dead center and spot on with his high notes!
Not too many guys can just pull a Double G out of thin air and be dead on like Jose, but, of course, that is one hallmark of the pro level, lead trumpet studio musician........
Jose got a fantastic result with this 3 month course, but always keep in mind: The players who get excellent results also worked hard and practiced what was given them....Sorry, but .no miracle pills to swallow in the course!
OTHER TESTIMONIALS:
Well, Kurt you were right this time. At first thought, having a trumpet lesson by phone doesn't seem doable, but once I actually had you on the phone, it was like you were here in my living room......in New York! I just wanted to say thanks and you can make me famous by putting my email up on your site! hahaha. Your 3 month program took my range from a weak double F to a SOLID double A....I can play GIVE IT ONE now!!!!!!!!!!!
Herb Shapiro, White Tie Big Band
You are amazing. Im 13 and im grade 5, so ive mastered double tounging, but triple tounging is harder. This video really helped me!
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.
