Let the Music Help You!

Sometimes trumpet players work so hard on gaining control and improving skills that we forget why we are working. It's about the music, which is to say, be a listener and enjoy the music deeply first. Allow yourself to fully feel it, understand it emotionally and experience it directly without thinking about how to do it. Develop and trust your musical instincts and let creating "tasty ingredients" and a wonderful experience for the listener be the motivation for your practice.
