I have been looking around different forums and talk about trombeone helping....
1. tone
2. sound
3. range
4. risistance
5. helps air

I am always looking for ways to improve these and i can to the conclusion today to try this. I went up to one of my many trombone friends and asked to borrow one of their extra mps. i hav been buzzing and noticed that it is very hard to buzz or sustain notes . It is also a very good warm-down.

Should i work on Stamp with the new mp?

how long should i buzz?

does this have any negative effects that i should know about?



Thanks,
AndrewWK

Well I've heard people that say they've become better trumpet-players after they played trombone for a while, so I suggest that you go for it.

I borrowed my brothers trombone once and jammed for 30-40 minutes, and all of my mouth-region of my face was paralyzed for the rest of the evening. Not nice :P
But trombone is fun so why not?

I don't think that the trombone makes you a better trumpet player. Practicing more makes you a better player regardless of the instrument. A lower instrument gives you a different point of view and THAT is something MANY trumpet players can use a dose of! Just imagine the collection of mouthpieces after 10 years..........................
I do play tuba from time to time. It is great fun doing the Carnival of Venice (Clarke) with the wind band!
