| Re: Changing approach to the piccolo trumpet Another idea you can fool around with day to day to find out what you want is the airstream. Try slimming it down. With a really wide airstream you get that big orchestral sound, but if you use a compact and very fast airstream, you'll start getting that light crisp sound on the horn. That will also get your brain to think about crisper articulations that involve the tip of your tongue alot more.
Hope that helps
