Trumpet Players: When you inhale and exhale, are you aware of your intercostal muscles? Most players think “more air” means more force. Real breath support starts with expansion, not tension. Hands on the ribs. Inhale → feel the ribs widen 360°. Exhale → keep that space as the air moves. This is how you get: • Fuller tone • Better endurance • Less face and neck tension Train the body first. The horn responds. #Trumpet #trumpettips #musiciansoftiktok #breathe #brass
