Hey guys, I'm 16 and I love playing orchestral music and solos when I have the chance. Granted our school has a band, not an orchestra, I still do honor orchestras and such if I can make it. I have a problem however. I play too stacato, even on parts that are supposed to be short. Does anyone have any tips on how to get that full, flowing, long orchestral sound compared to what my trumpet teacher calls a polka band sound? thanks!
