Ten minutes in, and your lip is done? This video will teach you how to last longer on trumpet.
So many comeback trumpet players are excited to take the horn out of the case but they can't last ten minutes before they have to put it back in the case. This is a real problem!
In this video, I break down the real definition of trumpet endurance (hint: it's not about eliminating fatigue), and I walk you through two completely different — and completely opposite — approaches to building it. Both work. Most comeback trumpet players only know one side of the coin, which is exactly why progress stalls.
Here's what we cover:
✅ The real difference between pain and discomfort when it comes to endurance on trumpet
✅ Two opposite approaches to enhanced endurance on trumpet (they both build stamina)
✅ Why practicing one of these to the exclusion of the other is the #1 reason comeback players plateau
If you're a returning trumpet player who used to last through a full rehearsal and now taps out in minutes, this one's for you.

I'll have to get my Caruso book out. At the brass band practice, I was lightly tapping my foot at times. I've been doing the other three without having reminded myself of what Caruso says, so I'm glad I've subsconsciously done that.
