| manny i agree with your post i studied with carmine caruso for many years and he always pushed his students but he uunderstood the delicate balance between progress and ruine. anything you push has a breaking point, this having been said every student of the trumpet has diffrent capabilities and finding those limits is part of the challenge. i say student because we all learn every day from our studies of this wonderful and sometimes frustrating instrument. we call the trumpet this is just my take on things but herbert clark said it best where a measure of medicine will cure more than perscribed may be fatal.
