Trumpet lessons in Bogotá, at home and online
The trumpet has only three valves, yet they work with your lips to produce its full range of notes. The key is the lips' vibration inside the mouthpiece, known as buzzing. The trumpet features in salsa, jazz, symphony orchestras, town bands and the porros of Colombian bandas pelayeras, offering a huge range of repertoire. Lessons patiently build embouchure and breath control so you can produce a good sound without strain.

Questions about trumpet lessons
Is it normal that your lips get tired at first?

Tromtle or trombone: What to choose?

If you like to wear his melody, his trumpet usually falls in love with him, and if you prefer a warm and profound sound, his trombone. It's best to listen to both and decide with his ear.
How long does it take to get sharp notes?
It's up to every person and how they practice: acute registration is built with air, resistance and an embocatment, but with force. To get there quickly by pressing the nozzle usually leads to bad habits. No shortcuts but an ordered path that your teacher adapts to your rhythm.
Can I practice trumpet at an apartment?
Yes, with some precautions: reasonable schedules, a practice and part of the studio dedicated to buzing with a nozzle alone, that sounds far less. Your teacher helps you to put together a realistic routine for your space. how to practice music at home.
