I always advise parents to allow their children to take music lessons because of its numerous advantages. I love music and I know music has shaped my life in many ways. I developed a strong passion for music at an early age, and I followed my passion. Music made me who I am. From recording songs to selling cd's, and from performing my songs to winning awards, I can say I have been living a fulfilled life because of my passion for music. So, I can authoritatively say music brings out the best in kids and adults. Even if your child has little or no experience or he is not even interested in it, you need to enroll him for good music lessons. Also, music enhances kids’ ability to learn in formal classes too. It motivates children to dig deep and tap into their inner strength and skills. Music will make them hit a gear they never knew they had. Another reason to encourage your child to learn how to sing, how to compose songs, or how to play certain musical instruments is quick language development. Over the years, it has been established that music education promotes language development and it also makes people more social. Now that you know some benefits of music lessons, you may want to enroll your child for music lessons. It is better to choose a good service provider. Here are the qualities you should look for in music teachers/school. Conducive environment You need a music school with a conducive environment. When it comes to music lessons, the environment where it is done plays an important role in the effectiveness of the lesson. The environment should attract kids. For instance, there should be toys for kids and a lounging area for adults. State-of-the-art musical equipment Your child needs a music school that has numerous pieces of musical instruments. This will give her a variety of choices. Besides, there’s nothing wrong in learning how to play multiple instruments. Some musical artistes can play both keyboard and guitar very well. Multi-instrumentalists are usually more successful than artists that can play only one instrument. Experienced and qualified teachers Your level of success in anything depends on the experience and expertise of your teacher. So, if you want your child to get the best from his music lesson, you should enroll him in a school that has experienced music teachers. You need a school that has teachers that are good in singing, composing music, and playing different musical instruments. Flexible schedule How flexible is the schedule of the school? You would want to integrate the music lessons into your child’s academic routine. So, how about teachers that can come around early in the morning or during his break? Some musical schools are very flexible.

You have probably heard many times that the trumpet is one of the most difficult instruments to play. Maybe you play the saxophone and you’re wondering where the famous trumpet ego comes from, or maybe you’re thinking about learning the trumpet. Either way, there’s something to what people say about it, let’s learn why. The trumpet is considered a difficult instrument because the sound of the trumpet is reliant on the delicate embouchure. The brass embouchure, particularly the trumpet embouchure, must be capable of producing frequencies upwards of 1000 HZ. Who Makes The SoundMusic is practically the same as vibration. The way sound works is vibrating air (or another medium… bone-induction headphones prove that.). The vibration from an instrument vibrates the air which in turn vibrates our ear drum which in turn vibrates our inner ear’s cochlea which in turn excites nerves that our brain can understand. For a trumpet to make sound, the trumpet player’s lips must produce the vibration. It helps to understand the challenge here if we compare what is required of a trumpet player vs. other instruments.
Again, so what? Why are higher notes hard to play? As you play higher, the trumpet player has to buzz higher frequencies. To play High C, the trumpet player has to buzz around 1046 times per second! To be able to play this frequency takes an enormous amount of practice. In fact, culturally, being able to “hit the high notes” is a huge deal for many trumpet player. The embouchure is so complicated that there are entire books and theories written specifically for training an embouchure. Not all experts agree on the best system for developing an embouchure because there are so many complicating factors. Everybody’s mouth and lip configurations (shape of mouth, placement of teeth, etc) are different. Therefore, everyone’s embouchure and embouchure development is different. What further complicates matters is that many trumpet players in K-12 school programs do not get formal embouchure training, and so get bad habits. This can lead to several problems.
All this is to underscore that the trumpet embouchure is difficult and tricky enough to get the hang of that if you don’t learn decent enough technique you could struggle for months or even years with endurance, good tone, and range. Although it’s not unusual to learn to play around 15 notes for a beginner with 6 months, it can take much longer to play with good tone. Embouchure Shelf LifePerhaps one of the more unfortunate aspects of the embouchure is that if you don’t use it, you lose it. Very similar to athletic conditioning–advanced trumpet technique (or chops as they call them) will be lost quickly if you are not continuously practicing. Some experts experience a noticeable difference even after only a day or two of not practicing. But even with the trumpet being so difficult to learn, it is majorly worth it! Would recommend looking into finding a great teacher like ours to help you push past these obstacles and become an amazing Trumpet player.
