Trumpet Tips: Don't Over Buzz 

The intro is absolute gold

It's true you giving all this info for free is outrageous but as a beginner in trumpet i thank you for it!

I am 74 of age, play the trumpet since 12, always, like many, struggle with the higher notes, well I like your clear info, will follow and hear the results !

I have been "pummeled" by teachers about buzzing and for me it never works except to make me tighten up just like you said. To get a free buzz or a clear MP buzz makes me tense but as you pointed out if I just concentrate on air moving through on the MP when I then put the horn up the tone starts and all is happy and it sounds pretty darn good to me as opposed to like you pointed out that pinched cramped "buzz into the MP sound" so thanks for freeing me up from this pressure to buzz!

Amazing, I've had someone tell me this before. But you made it make more sense with a more thorough breakdown

Great stuff, Bob! Love your videos. Folks, this dude knoes his stuff so pay attention! You'll be glad you did. 😎

I'm 50 and just beginning. I actually have a cornet. Great video. Many of the instruction on RU-vid imply you have to get the buzz with the mouthpiece.

I was wondering why my tone was so much worse on flugel than trombone! This really helps, and I think that all brass players should know about it and keep it in mind when playing! Thank you so much!

Bobby I really appreciate this. Keep producing !

this video was very good for me!

Also you are way undersubbed for the quality of the videos, content and your beautiful playing.

Dude - you are awesome! Thanks for the insights

After trying not to focus on my buzz too much, my trumpet sounded 10 times as good omg

thank you, Bob!

Thank you.. great advice 👍👍

Thanks ... very good tip.

This is so good for beginners

Super helpful!

This was very guiding and helpful. I just started with trumpet last week (played e.Bass 20 years etc but nevver winds) and starting to figure out from point zero. very good advise for what to focus. thank u!

Thanks I'm a new trumpet player and I'm issues with that I think this will help a lot

valuable lesson! thanks

Excellent sir

Bob I love you

Great video! I got the same advice in college, though I didn’t play trumpet then…

Such great advice 👏👏Im going to focus on this advice🎺🎶I have been working too hard with no real improvement 😢time to ease off a Little, slappe af 🇩🇰

I just recently bought a trumpet I’m 40 haven’t played one since I was a sophomore in high school… but I did play at a very high level for a child from a young age till my teens . Hopefully it’s like riding a bike and I still got it .

i like your vibe

just subscribed nice work and it's free wow

Your really good at the trumpet you should think about making videos for it.

Hi. Thank you. Could you explain something about the jaw pivot in playing trpt? Please.

Hi Bobby, ot I know. I hope you see this. Can you direct me to your video on “Practicing without the trumpet”, or something like that. Many thanks, Peter

Whenever I try to play high pitches, it makes a spitty sound pls help

I am playing a Getzen cornet, want to buy a pocket trumpet, seems there are many pitfalls in getting for a resonable price one, any advice

I never attempt to buzz, focussing the air will be sufficient to cause the buzz to start on either the mouthpiece or the instrument.

Blowing and letting the horn vibrate the lips is not buzzing the lips. Nor is it buzzing the mouthpiece.

Seth Rogan can do it all
