What's the best age to start trumpet?
The best age for a child to start trumpet lessons is typically between 8 and 10, but it depends on the child’s physical development and interest in learning the instrument.
Additionally, it’s important that the child can hold the trumpet comfortably, move their fingers easily, and keep their mouth and jaw in the right positions, including a good embouchure, for at least 15 to 20 minutes. Since playing the trumpet involves specific techniques, your child should be able to breathe comfortably without any problems while playing.
At Lesson With You, we welcome students aged 7 and up for trumpet lessons.
Which trumpet should I get as a beginner?
For beginners, a student trumpet from renowned brands like Yamaha or Bach, priced between $300 and $600, is recommended for its affordability and ease of play. Intermediate players may find quality mid-level trumpets in the range of $600 to $1,000, while professional models, with much improved features, can cost over $1,200.
You can also rent a trumpet from a local music store to determine which type works best for you. You should also get advice from teachers or experienced performers before making a decision.
I'm new to online lessons. What can I expect out of my first trumpet lesson?
In your first lesson, your teacher will help you set up everything—from your sound and screen position. Teachers may ask you several questions about your musical goals, pieces you’ve played and practice habits, and any challenges you face when playing the trumpet.
Based on your answers, your teacher will suggest warm-up exercises and techniques to help you build your trumpet skills. Throughout the lesson, your instructor will help you with improving your embouchure, articulation, breathing control, understanding of music theory, and expanding your brass repertoire.
Is it necessary to know how to read sheet music before beginning trumpet lessons?
You don’t need to know how to read music to start trumpet lessons. Your teacher will guide you through the basics and introduce music theory step by step.
That said, being able to read music can speed up your progress. It helps you solve challenges more quickly and makes it easier to play with others—especially if you’re aiming to join a band or orchestra.
Are there specific warm-up exercises for trumpet players?
Start with exercises specifically designed for trumpet players, like scales, arpeggios, and chromatic runs. You can easily find printable versions online or pick up a trumpet drill book to guide your practice.
It’s also a good idea to practice the tricky sections from your pieces and work on them slowly. This helps you improve your articulation and build a stronger embouchure. Once you get comfortable with the slow tempo, you can gradually increase the speed. Don’t forget to warm up at the beginning of each session—making it part of your routine is key to steady progress.
If you’re unsure where to begin, your teacher can recommend exercises that match your skill level and goals on the trumpet.
What's the best way to take care of my trumpet?
Here are some recommendations on how to keep your trumpet in the best condition. Regularly clean your trumpet using a valve brush and cloth to remove any accumulated dirt or moisture. You can also lubricate the valves with valve oil to ensure smooth movement. Check for loose screws or stuck slides and promptly address any issues.
Make sure to store your trumpet in a protective case when not in use. Additionally, visit the music maintenance store regularly to address any wear and tear issues.
