alritght im going to play the trumpet!!!!!!! (if you read my other board you'll get what i mean) any practicing tips, warm-ups, of just tips.......lol!!!! thanks!!!!!

get a teacher

Haha... yeah well I think that getting a private teacher would be the best thing to do... they'd be able to tell you what to do. As for practicing tips.. well just practice a little every day and don't over-practice before a performance... work your practice time up over time... start with maybe 20 minutes a day, to 30, to an hour. but yup good luck!

This is my second year playing trumpet and it is really fun! My Band director always warms up with lip slurs and scales. As for practicing, I would start at 20 minutes and work your way into maybe an hour or an hour and a half. You can do it!

well when i first get it i will be practicing hours a day ofcourse 20 min at the least for all instruments......but i can't get lessons becuase i have paino and flute...... it would be to much so my friend who plays the trumpet is going to help me..... and my band director...

i agree with jackie... best thing to do is 2 get a private teacher... Bit expensive but reali worth it...

is there any other way? like an internet thingy.....

not all teachers are expensive. my teacher is a college student, he charges $13 half hour, even a couple of the top players at my high school teach private lessons, you don't have to find a proffesional

i know but i have no idea how to bring up that money......
