I just had a lesson with my trumpet teacher using my usual 3C and he noted that I had an unusually bright tone (for me) and asked me what mpc I was using. He told me I shold be using a 5C or 5B because my lips arn't very big so in my trust for him I am going to try a 5B, 5C or 5BC but from Curry not Bach. Any way which one should I go with, right now the 5BC looks good but I am worried about doing Jazz with a deeper piece. Any suggestions?
