QuestionI can't hit high notes because my upper lip is big and comes out of the mouthpiece. The highest I can play is an F, what can I do?Community AnswerThe size of your lips does not impact your ability to reach high notes. Reaching high notes is impacted by breath and air flow. You need to take big breaths and breath fast, hot air to reach higher notes. Use long tones to help reach higher notes consistently. Remember to drop your jaw so you don't get that high-pitched "eeee" sound. Practice this daily.

QuestionI already play trumpet in my school band, we have an option to pick another instrument. I was thinking of playing French horn, would it be easy to switch because they're both brass instruments?Community AnswerTo transfer from the trumpet to the French horn would be easier than switching to a woodwind instrument. You must remember that each instrument comes with its own set of difficulties.
