 |  What it do. What's up everyone? My name is shane and I use to play the trumpet. Latley I've been wanting to get back into playing, but haven't played in about 15 years   . So, I figured I would join this formum and maybe one other to get some feed back learn a few new things. But, most importently get back to playing and possible taking a refresher course to re-learn the keying and note's, etc... I kinda figure it's just like riding a bike right??? You never forget sorta  . I forgot to add my current trumpet is a Holton which is probably about 19 years old.Take Care. Shane Last edited by shaneb : 05-04-2008 at 10:59 PM. Reason: forgot to give the type of trumpet I had |

| Re: What it do. I was a terrible amateur trumpet player when I was a teenager. Then I was away from the trumpet for about 25-30 years. Now that I am 52 years old with about 5 years of casual practice as a come-back player under my belt I, have worked my way up to being a mediocre player!

From everything I've heard it is like riding a bike (with all the wonderful muscles that need to be worked up too) but you can also get advice/tips from the many fellow come-backers here | |

| Re: What it do. Shane - Mansfield University isn't too far away from you - they always had a good music program - maybe check out what they offer - talk to their trumpet dept - Music Department Faculty - Mansfield University of Pennsylvania Best of luck at the comeback - am on the same trail! Also check out the Comeback Trumpeter's Guide if you haven't already - The Comeback Trumpeters Guide |
