I have been playing the trumpet for about 4 months now, I learn from
school 1/2 hour a week and I am in intermediate concert band and just
last week I was accepted into the schools major orchestra (I have the
least experience in my instrument out of all the musicians in the
orchestra).
After a warm up, I can go from Low F# to a High G, sometimes I can
play full range but I don't try to strain myself too much because I
have only been playing 4 months.
I practice an hour and 15 minutes a day, (15 minutes for warm up,cool
down and trumpet maintenance). Im worried about damaging lips becuase
with the new orchestra comes more challenging pieces to play, I know
about cooling down because sometimes afterwards if I don't cool down I
get bumps on the top of my lips.
Are my practice hours fine? because I want to be able to play trumpet
my entire life.
