Anybody could just pick any woodwind blow on it and you'll get some sort of sound from it, well it's a different story when you pick up a brass instrument (trumpet specially). I have seen people whistle on the mouthpiece? I've seen people put the whole mouthpiece cup inside their mouths then blow? The trumpet definitely is one of the most demanding instrument around. I heard that the French Horn is also a very difficult instrument but only girls play them (Lol) that's why they are usually included in a woodwind quintet? Alrighty then!That is probably why most folks think that the TRUMPET is only for the boys? Yeah Right!! We can play too!!Charli (foxy_trpt),
