This page is part of my teaching.

My rules are: Don't use too much air when playing.

Control the sound: The same volume in the low notes at the high register.

And use the Pivot method (Donald S.Reinhardt, Encyclopedia of the pivot system book) starting from C high.


For young students who want to start playing the trumpet

This is my idea for a good control of sound and flexibility.

"Important to always use accents from low to high notes!"

These five books are my favorites and I always use them.
