the embouchure, (or formation of lips) is a very large part in being a successful Trumpet player.try and buzz on a mouthpiece.sometimes this may come naturally when you buzz.the lips gently press together whilst keeping the corners very tight.say the letter "m" and leave your lips where they are.they should be slightly rolled in.then make a frown.your'e ready to go!

hope that helps =)

With your left hand, grip the valve casings. Most trumpets will have a ring of some sort for you to put your ring finger in (this is used to control the third valve slide). Your right hand should be used entirely for pressing the valves and should never support any weight. Your fingers should be placed on the valves so that you can press down any combination without any trouble or strain. Place your thumb wherever it feels comfortable. Many trumpets will have a ring or hook near where the pinky of your right hand will be. New trumpet players are generally discouraged from using this pinky ring, as new players will tend to use this ring to pull the trumpet into their face in order to hit higher notes.

like your making out with someone In regards to the above answer, everyone has different "making out" styles but hopefully they do not employ a proper trumpet playing technique. The best way I can describe it is this: Imagine you are tyring to blow air into a straw without putting it in your mouth. You need to pucker your lips up small enough that you could create a seal on a hole that small. Keep in mind, a trumpet mouthpiece is a lot larger than that; I am merely trying to describe the shape and size you should be trying for with your lips.

Yes. You do get tired. Especially if you blow your chops

Just as yhou get tired from running or playing Basketball. But with practice and gradually building up the length of time you spend, you can go a longer time before getting tired.

Why do your lips go numb while play trumpet?

The reason a persons lips go numb when playing trumpet is usually because they pull back on the trumpet, stopping the blood circulation to the lips. If you find that this is the case, be conscious of this when you practice. You might find that initially your range is somewhat reduced but with regular practice, the muscles that make up your mouth will become stronger and you will be able to play higher than you could when you were pulling back on the trumpet.

How do you play the note d on trumpet?

Playing with braces can actually be very good for a new trumpet player. A very common mistake with beginners is to pull the trumpet tight against the lips, which is bad for the player and can damage the lips. A trumpet player with braces has to avoid this problem even more, which means that they are likely to develop better playing practices. Remember that you should never have to pull the trumpet towards your face; just place your lips on the mouthpiece and buzz like you would without braces.
