just wondering. i play trumpet

 

 

 

 

 

btw, i havent been on this site for like 3 years or more.... heh wow isnt it? too bad like none of u all remember me

I play trumpet, and have for the past 4 years. I am not currently learning french horn, wich is preaty much the hardest insturment to learn. The fingerings are almost the same as the trumpet, but the way you must move your mouth makes it much harder.

 

 

 

BTW, anyone know how to drain spit from a french horn, cant find a way.

ya just have to turn it so it drain out the mouthpiece. (preferably take the mouthpiece out first.)

 

 

 

And btw, if ya ever feel like joining an awesome trumpet forum, stick your head in at trumpetherald.com .

nvm

I used to play drums...Until it got in the way of like...Everything. Band practice took up all my study halls so I said screw that. :P

I don't play any instruments, but.

 

 

 

--> M&M

sweet ive also been playing piano for 6 years or so.

#-o I have the feeling you dont know what a french horn is... it is bent in so many directions and in so many places, i couldnt possibly stuff a cloth down the mouth peice, plus its extramly small.

Hehe poor french horn players gotta tune tons of different weird shaped valves all while sticking their hand in the bell and trying to play.

No prob, people tend to dislike old topics to reborn anyway.

Thank Bill for bringing the best sarcastic/cynical comedy then :)

I play cornet (4 years, now stopped), but if you play trumpet youshould know it's practically the same thing.

ive played guitar for 4 years drums for 2 years and keyboard for 6 months lol and i dont mind singing from time to time

It's close, but I wouldn't quite call it practically the same thing. they have their own little nuances and special features or aspects that you need to mind to. You shouldnt quite play trumpet the same exact way you play cornet or flugelhorn.

I used to play baritone horn and sometimes i would play the trumpet.

I play the 6 string bass

I play cornet which is almost exactly the same as a trumpet just a bit smaller and I also play a bass guitar. I love music.

Ive played the Guitar for............... 2 months :D

I played piano, now play bass and guitar.

I play thet tuba, hence my picture. I'm not a bee though.

I used to play the piano :shock:, drums (im going to start lessons again soon), and guitar \ ....i love the guitar, i actually taught myself the guitar

Trumpets and cornets have the same fingerings, and you hold it the same way.

 

 

 

Trumpets are just heavier and have differnt spit valves and tuning valves which don't really make the playing different.

 

 

 

And with Trumpets it's a tiny bit harder to play higher because of the extra length.

I finaly found out how to take the spit out of the french horn.... unfortuantly its not pleasent having spit go on the carpet in your floor just cause you pull out a slide and turn it upside down....
