| Re: Focusing tone on a piccolo trumpet
One thing that is really important when playing piccolo trumpet (or any trumpet, for that matter) is to have a really well developed sound concept in your head as you play. Be sure to listen to a lot of piccolo players that you like, so you really know how the thing is supposed to sound.
One thing that might help as well, is to think of your piccolo trumpet sound as being the "falsetto" of your regular trumpet sound. To the point of when you sing your trumpet part, sing it in falsetto.
Hope this helps! |
