[E] [A] [G] [C] [E]
[Em] [Gm] [A]
[Bb]
[N] This is your B-flat trumpet.
It has three valves, it has a mouthpiece, it has a couple
of water keys or spit valves, it has the bell, and when you push one of these down it opens
up the tubing and then the air can go, you know, the combinations will make it, make
the different sounds.
And the mouthpiece is here.
This here is my day job.
My main squeeze
over here.
This is a flugelhorn.
It kind of looks like a trumpet in its sixth month
of pregnancy or something.
All the parts are kind of expanded.
It has the mouthpiece, it
has the water keys, the spit valves, and it has the bell.
And the trumpet is known for
its power and brilliance and the flugelhorn is more mellow.
[Bb]
And this one here.
[Gb]
[Bb] So they're
both fingered the same, everything is the same, but they have totally different sounds
because of the size of the bore of the instrument.
I was talking about the bore, talking about
how much wider and open, more open this flugelhorn is than the trumpet.
[C]
[F] [Gm]
[D] [F] To
[Gm] play this horn, really,
the only [N] thing that makes the sound really is the mouthpiece.
You know, they buzz the
mouthpiece.
In other words, you spit and go, then you do that and stick it in here.
And
you blow.
[Bb]
The [N] harder you blow, the louder it gets.
And the softer you blow, the softer
the sound.
And trumpet is weird because you can play, and flugelhorn, you can play so
many different notes without pushing anything down, for example.
If I don't have time to
warm up real well, and even if I do, to me I've found lately that getting the air happening,
walking up and down the stairs, or walking to the gig rather than driving to the gig.
So because once you start to blow the horn, you know, you're going, then you're some more.
And if you don't have your air already, you know, I've been out there and I'm pumping,
everything's working.
That's what really makes the sound.
It's just, it's the air and it's
not a big muscle thing and it's not a lot of funny things.
Now when you play a note,
if you want to attack the note, you kind of, you go, and so basically that's a little bit
about these two guys.
Now, over here I have what's called a mute.
This will change the
sound of the horn completely and your neighbor in the hotel will like it much better if you
put this in when you're practicing.
[Bb]
[A] So it kind of mutes the sound and also changes the
sound quite a bit and there are a variety of, this is a Harmon mute, there's a cup mute,
there's a bucket mute, and that's it.
That's them.
