      I love how you committed to teaching yourself 8 in 8 and once you talked yourself into the attitude of "I'll learn or at least I can say I tried" so yes.
      Also, I saw MJ describing and demonstrating "How" to Moonwalk and the trick is that while you're sliding one foot back, just as you're about to slide the other foot back you slide forward with the one you just slid back. It worked for me and I don't dance at all.,.but I don't stand still either 🤣
      Yes, 8 more after you recover from tired cheeks, hurting legs, and the abrasions on your neck.✌️♥️🎸🎶🙏

    I'm impressed by the progress you made with the trumpet in 1 hour. I've played the flute for a while and it has a similar thing going on with the embouchure. I've heard that the trumpet is one of the harder brass instruments to get the embouchure down on.

    • @finnvanderbar3935

      trumpet is hard af man, i can make good sounds and pay a couple octaves, but for me the hardest part is improv and phrasing with the fingering positions

    • @dombowombo3076
      @dombowombo3076 Před rokem +9

      I've played trumpet for more than 10 years at the music school and the hard part is, that you have to make the exact pitch with your lips..the fingering part is, compared to guitar, pretty easy imo.
      And you have to practice constantly, otherwise you loose your muscles pretty fast. Haven't played for a few years now and can't make a single clean tone anymore. French horn is similar.

    • @ToiMadness
      @ToiMadness Před rokem

      I play trumpet guitar and flute among many others and so far I have found that trumpet for sure has a very strange embouchure and while your problems with flute are very hard to deal with they will eventually get better just by playing at all but with trumpet you very much have to focus on that and it doesn’t only get better by playing. You have to put that as a priority

    @cj_music23 Před rokem +135

    trumpet progress is real dude! i’ve been playing for almost 9 years now and the best advice i’ve heard is to tighten the corners, just the corners of your lips, and make sure you are pushing air with your diaphragm. also, think of it like your blowing air through the horn, not into it. hope this helps!

    Speaking of guitar/brass crossovers, there's a cool Trent Hamilton video where he shows the relative pitch distance each of the valves gives you and shows how combinations of valves don't line up with guitar frets, which is why valved brass need tunable valves.

    Flipping the guitar is like working a hula-hoop. You have to add centrifugal force by swinging your body a bit.

      Approach sweeping slow and methodical. If you try to sweep at 200 bpm starting out, you will not improve the techniques of muting and the flow of your picking hand. Be sure to use a metronome when practicing this, or the notes will feel sloppy.

    My grandfather can whistle louder than anyone I’ve ever heard. As a kid, I could hear him whistle for me from blocks away and I don’t even think he uses his hand! So as a father of two myself, I also decided to finally learn it a few months ago. I still need to work on consistency, but the one time I really did it I had no idea I did it because it was so loud I basically deafened myself temporarily and my wife, who was sitting next to me and doesn’t have great hearing, assured me that I had done it. I basically only heard the echo of it in my house but it was like I had imagined it. Thankfully my kids are sound sleepers who sleep with loud white noise since we have a small house. 😂

    I practiced the hamboning on both sides to the tune of We will rock you since it’s the same basic rhythm and consistent all the way through. Seems like a good skill to continue building especially for the casual musician. I can see myself sitting around a campfire or similar setting with my friends and if I’m not playing some basic guitar I could or somebody else could do this and just sing together.

I may never play guitar at a level that even approaches your ability (or any other CZcamsr's for that matter), but I'll always have the satisfaction of knowing that my rudimentary trumpet playing skills from high school marching band would win that category. BTW, every newbie trumpet player learns to play "Taps" (because it has the easiest fingering for a newbie) the same as every newbie guitarist (of my era) learned to play "Smoke on the Water".
