What up y'all. In this video I'm going to show you how to buzz your lips for trumpet playing.
Let's get started. First you need to form your embouchure. I have a video that goes into detail
on how to do this. In that video I give you three things to consider when forming your trumpet
embouchure. So check that out if you haven't already. Real quickly to form your embouchure
all you need to do is say M or N to bring the lips together. Next firm the corners of your mouth and
lastly flatten out the chin so it should look like this. After you form your trumpet embouchure
just blow like this. If you're still having trouble with buzzing your lips you're either
too tight or too loose. If you're too tight then relax the middle of your lips to let air pass
through. If you're too loose then slowly bring the lips together until vibration happens.
And finally apply that buzz to your mouthpiece.
To change pitch try to do some sirens on your mouthpiece like this.
If you want more information on how to correctly place the mouthpiece on your lips
then check out my video on trumpet mouthpiece placement. I guide you through a few ways to
find that optimum spot on your embouchure. And that's how you buzz on your lips and on the
mouthpiece for trumpet playing. If you enjoyed this lesson please give it a like and share it
