Hello Trumpetmasters,
This forum is truly great and I thank all the people that keep it going with their input of all sorts. Every time I look there is so much info that I have days, weeks or months of practice to do. I have been coming here for a year as I am getting back into playing horn after a hiatus for a few years, and this has been an amazing resource.
Though my grand father was a music teacher and trumpet player I did not start playing horn till I was in my late twenties and just had my first child. His lullabies were on the cornet.
I played quite a bit and got to the point that I could play horn as well as I could play the other instruments I play and it really became my favorite.
For various reasons like moving to town finding it harder to find practice space and not having the same playing situations my horn playing tapered off and for two or three years I didn't play at all.
Last spring I bought a new trumpet and started going through the painfully slow process of getting back into shape, or really in shape for the first time thanks to things like this forum and Pops Mclaughlin's site.
I have just noticed in the last week or two that I am getting back the flow that I used to feel when I was at my prime before, only better, as I said.
I look forward to sharing what I can with this forum and as always continue learning from all you masters.
