just wanted to tell everyone

Thats great, and the headache is definitley worth it. But Not why im here. I wanted to say that my freind says he can play that. Now let me tell you about this friend. He never ever talks about music, and is in FOURTH GRADE! thats right GRAMMAR SCHOOL. Now if any of you belive that please explain, cuz i DONT.

I`ve seen fourth graders do crazy stuff like that. But I also know that little kids can lie. You never know. Anyway, today I did it again and went higher into an indistinguishable note. It was cool.

he seems like the kind hu would lie about something like that. BTW i hav a question about names of notes...theres the bottom C, then the next one up. Is that called a High C or the middle C? cuz if its the Hi i played the double hi the other day, and if its the middle i played the hi. not bad for a 6th grader with a year and a half of exp. huh?

what you played was a High C.....as a Sr. in high school my operable range is to the Double C, and able to squeeze out the triple G if i really, really try...on a good day

Matt, what kind of mouthpiece are u using. I really wanna be able to play that high. Gimme some suggestions!!!!!!!!!

Wow! I can barely play that. What type of Trumpet are you playing?

standard BACH 7C it`s not all in the trumpet and mouthpiece. If you really wanna have fun get a rubber hose and play it with your mouthpiece, good for practice g2g

I think if you played a G, it was just a high G and not a double. On the trumpet, everything is based around C (yes, I know, there are a few notes just hanging out with no title, don`t ask me why they did it like that). The high G is five notes above high C, and the double high G is five above the double C. The double G is the highest note ever recorded on trumpet with enough overtones to count as a real note.

That is true my friend...but a triple high G as a senior in High School. Wow you must practice and get some really good lessons there man. I can reacha double high C and on my good days a triple E (squeeling). That`s really great for you man.
