What size mouthpiece for the trumpet do I need?!


Question:

What size mouthpiece for the trumpet do I need?

I need something else to help me hit higher notes on it. I have a 7C right now. I am a pretty good player, I just want to try out something else. Any suggestions??


Answers:

a schilke 14 or 14 A. i use a schilke 14. i am supposed to be getting a 14 ordered for me soon. that would be used for jazz. but anyways if you want to hit higher notes you need to build up those chops. do lip slurs starting on concert F (note G) and go down a half step then back up then down a whole step. so it will go G, F#, G, F, G, E, E flat, G, D, G, D flat. you can do that on any octave you please. then you can do long tones. on those notes i told you. you could also do long tones starting on the note C and go up to C#, then C, D, D#, E, E#, F, F#, G, G#, A, A#, B, C, but in between every note you drop back down to a C. that will build you up if nothing will. your chops will be so tuckered out. but they will get stronger. i promise. i hope i helped. now you go play the hell out of that trumpet!! :-) lol.
