The Best Long Tones For Trumpet Players

Here is the affiliate link to the book I am talking about in the video. Many of you have asked me for it. http://amzn.to/2kU5zBY

Carmine Caruso wrote a book called Musical Calisthenics for brass. That book changed my trumpet playing for the best and I tell people about that book very often.

The first few studies in the book are a great way to spend time performing long tones on the trumpet (or any other brass instrument).

In this video I demonstrate the first exercise in the book. Feel free to play along with me. Once you get a handle at 60bpm then slow down gradually. This will help to build your endurance.

Playing long tones is a great fundamental that beginning trumpet players should not ignore, as boring as it may be for some people. But, advanced trumpet players also play long tones and this is one of the main reasons they still sound great. Spend some time on this regularly.

I always want to keep these videos as short as possible so if you have any questions or comments then please leave them in the comment section here.
