I play the trombone and the trumpet. My trombone embrochure is great but my trumpet embrochure is not that great. I know that you have to tuck all your lip including edges into the mouth piece and play (I can make a sound) and I can do that but soon I find myself slipping back into the old embrochure with edges of lips out. Also I found an awkward problem, I can do the high notes high G, High E but I cannot do the low notes, how can I solve this problem?

This could be your problem . . .


"I know that you have to tuck all your lip including edges into the mouth piece and play . . . "

If you really mean what I think this means then, No. I don't think you're playing correctly. Your lips should sit on the rim of your mouthpiece naturally. You will a problem going back and forth between the 2 instruments because the Bone is going to require much more lip to make a tone, but with practice you should be able to adjust. After all, music educators usaully can play both in the same day.

Don't "stuff" everything in there. You just need what is vibrating (or oscillating) to be in there.

Dido on the tucking in of the lips, as proper as it may sound you should find the position that works best for you,screw around with it some. Personally I find I have great tone with a more relaxed position, and can even bring a smile to my face when playing to my sections amusement.
