Trumpet: Hesitancy

   Hesitancy in trumpet playing spawns from uncertainty.  And players experiencing hesitancy tend to pause before attempting a note.  The hesitancy habit is easily formed and can be difficult to break.  So it is wise not to form it.
   This exercise is designed to help the player gain confidence when moving from lower notes to higher notes and back again.  Approach each note with expectation of hitting the note (even if you miss hitting it).  And if need be, confine practice to individual systems.
