If you filled your trumpet with TNT and set it off, how much would you need to hit a Double high C? Asking for a friend. _________________ Please join me as well at:

Unfortunately you have the TNT in the wrong piping. To hit a dubba C you need to consume the TNT in order to create the appropriate stream of air to buzz the dubba C. |

Ah yes, this makes perfect sense. But then, what do you do with your embouchure when 50 megatons of TNT are trying to blast their way through?
Seems like a good time to practice calisthenics, perhaps. _________________ Please join me as well at:

You may find this video insightful. It’s mostly about trombones but the technique they discuss applies similarly to trumpets and other forward facing brass instruments. _________________ 1975 Olds Recording trumpet

In my personal experience I worked my way there with alot of Colin's lip flexibilities and a Bach 1c mpc. I considered employing the use of a former Navy Seal I had for a friend 35 years ago but he said they use C4 plastique explosive. Wasn't it Shakespeare who said, "a double high C by any other name would sound as sweet?" _________________ "There are two sides to a trumpeter's personality,

If you consume the TNT you should warn those around you that things could get messy if you lose control and it blows out the other end. _________________ Music is a fire in your belly, fighting to get out. You'd better put a horn in the way before someone gets hurt. |
