Before you start practicing every day, pull out your old mouthpiece, and try to play exactly the way you did years ago...
STOP.
Those may be three of the biggest mistakes you can make.
I've put together 5 things every comeback trumpet player should know before trying to rebuild their range and endurance.
One of them involves an instrument you probably never expected.
Because they've spent years following generic advice...
When what they really needed was an accurate diagnosis.
Diagnosis always comes before treatment.
You likely have been in Facebook groups, in trumpet forums trying to get free advice, but what's wrong with that?
It's like YOU being in a doctor's office listening to all the patients in the waiting room giving you FREE advice instead of going in and seeing the doctor.
That's EXACTLY what has been happening for most of you...
Also, BEWARE of various high pressure Facebook ads out there: Anyone who claims to know why your range or endurance is failing before hearing you play is guessing.
