Playing high notes on the trumpet can be a challenge for many musicians. A key aspect that influences this ability is the mouthpiece you use. A flat mouthpiece that has a narrower bore and flatter cup contour can help make playing high notes easier.
Why is that? Well, a flat mouthpiece allows for faster airflow to move through the mouthpiece more easily. This supports the vibrations of your lips and makes it easier to produce the higher partials (overtones) required for high notes.
In contrast, a deep mouthpiece tends to have a larger bore and deeper cup, which can result in slower airflow. This can make playing high notes more difficult as there is less support for the lips and it becomes more difficult to maintain the tension needed to produce the higher harmonics.
However, it is important to emphasize that the choice of mouthpiece is very personal and depends on many factors, including your individual anatomical features, playing style and preferences. Some players may find that they can play high notes better on a deep mouthpiece, while others may do better with a flatter mouthpiece.
Ultimately, it takes experimentation and adjustment to find the ideal mouthpiece for you.
I hope I was able to help you with my thoughts as well as exercises, tips and tricks on this important trumpet topic/video. Here's to good cooperation and always remember: sticking with it is the motto!
See you soon and Ciao!!! Your Nico
