One thing else to note, I suppose, is that many good trumpeters become very good teachers (but not always) - 'employing' a trumpet teacher not only passes on skills from the mentor to the student (who then mutates those lessons) but also keeps old trumpeters active, alive, and financially viable. What does this all mean - well the process is cyclic, there eventually becomes a space for the student to become the teacher. Perfect.
