Brass Instrument

Want to Play a Brass Instrument?

By Debbie Ray 

The first part of my advice is be ready to practice, practice, practice on your new instrument of choice - and then practice some more. Some basic information on Brass instruments is as follows. This vibration is the first key part in playing a brass instrument. Also, the length of the instrument helps control pitch as well. 

All right, so now that we have a bit of basic background information on how sounds are formed on the Brass family of instruments let me move on to some advice for beginning band students. "How much time?" If it is just too much you can overcome this problem all together by buying a Mute for your child's Brass instrument - be it a trumpet, trombone on whatever.

Deciding on a Brass Instrument

By Alexander Sutton 

Brass instruments are both wonderful to hear and a joy to see. These instruments are used for a huge number of musical styles, so anyone interested in playing can, with a little practice, jump in and enjoy themselves in a large body of music, whether it's classical, jazz, or world music. Each type of instrument has its own unique sound, playing style, and music so picking which instrument best for you can be a tough choice as each offers its own special appeal to players.

One of the most popular instruments is the trumpet. This instrument is easy to play, compact, and has a lead place in many different musical compositions in a large number of genres. This instrument is quite expensive and difficult to maintain. With its limitations to orchestra music, only players interested in this type of music should purchase it.
