On the back of your hand blow an air stream as if you were blowing out a candle some distance away. Feel how cold the air is. You are not moving as much air as with the warm stream, but it's moving much faster. This fast, cold air stream works well in Lead Trumpet playing. It will also produce a brighter sound, and project much farther. This requires more support than the warm air, faster cold air needs more compression.

I notice when I play with cold air, I also my tongue arches up. It definitely helps speed up the air.

| actually, the air is the same temperature in both cases, it's just that the fast air takes more heat away from your hand - so it feels colder. |

and why does it take much more heat away from your hand? Because it moves faster and therefore the more heat is taken away in a shorter time. This makes it feel colder
