À propos de cette écoute
Hey friends, in this episode of Trumpet Thoughts, I share some insights I've been working on about embouchure and lip placement. While air support is crucial, I’ve been discovering just how equally important lip positioning is when it comes to sound quality and control.
I break down the concept using a balloon analogy to illustrate how the lips should function more like the vibrating edge of a stretched balloon rather than being tightly rolled in or pressed against the teeth. Inspired by players like Maynard Ferguson, Lynn Nicholson, and insights from Bobby Shew, I explore how keeping the lips more unfurled and allowing the embouchure muscles to support from behind can create a fuller, more resonant sound.
I also touch on the importance of lip buzzing as a strength-building exercise and how tongue positioning plays a role in achieving better tone. If you've ever struggled with thin tone or lack of control, this might be a game-changer. Grab a balloon, experiment with this technique, and let me know what you think!
