Have you ever struggled with range and flexibility? (OK, let's be honest, what trumpet player hasn't!? 😂🤣)

Discover how mastering the harmonic series (aka "The Brass Elevator") can transform your playing! In this video, I'll break down this crucial concept using simple demonstrations.

🎺 What You'll Discover in This Video

  • Master the subtle tongue position changes that unlock your access to an expanded range
  • Develop proper embouchure stability for smooth, confident transitions between notes
  • Debunk the "blow harder" myth and learn what actually works for playing higher with less effort
