Those, my friend, are really hard questions to answer. When "music" and "deaf" comes together, I think of Beethoven. He was deaf too. But he made his music IN HIS HEAD, composed it, and conducted it. Anyways, to play any instrument, deaf or not, is really hard. I cannot compare the trumpet with another instrument, really. At least for the second question, the best mouthpiece is a Vincent Bach 3C mouthpiece. But all in all, to play the trumpet, trombone, french horn, etc, etc, is hard. But under your circumstances, it would be much harder to get used to it. But I can't stop you from trying. So go ahead and see for yourself. Are you partially deaf or completely deaf?

Yes, a 3c is bigger than a 7c, but for any trumpet a 3c will give you a well-rounded, bright but not too dark tone (which is the epitome of sound). As for the other part, it would take A LOT of work to be able to play trumpet (especially in the condition you specified). But I believe in you. If you can believe in yourself and have a strong work ethic, you could pull it off. It also might help you to listen better because when you play trumpet, you are constantly your own judge of whether you sound good, in tune and playing the parts to perfection.
Best of luck to you in your music career!
Best regards, belltrumpetplayer19

Yes a 7c is the mouthpiece people start off, but about the 3c that was just my opinion. As the player will improve, he will be able to have a variety of mouthpiece sizes (a 3c is mostly for band and orchestral band playing, and a smaller mouthpiece is mostly for marching band/jazz band). I, personally, believe that a 3c is better to start off with because it will give him the ability to have A LOT of flexibility in the mid to low range. It's just my opinion.
