Trumpet: Study Eight

   An interval is the distance between two notes.  And for trumpet players the "distance" can be bothersome if they do not know how to bypass pesky harmonics sounding between notes.
   The process takes practice.  And it begins by thinking "Hee" as a burst of air is put through the horn.  Even on the first attempt, the player should notice a difference in the number of harmonics sounded.  But like everything else in trumpet playing it takes practice to perfect.
   Though air is released in a burst, it must remain a controlled burst.  This is where experience comes to play.  And the only way to gain experience is by "doing".
   Start the study slowly.  Add speed as the intervals become easier to play.
