                »» So I played Trumpet in my 7th grade year. I haven't played it since then, but I went up to the attic the other day [don't ask why], and I decided to pull my trumpet out. Technically its a cornet, but its a Bb so I just call it a trumpet. The only difference is that it is slightly shorter than a trumpet. I quit in 7th Grade and picked up guitar, but I think I want to get back into playing the trumpet.

                I still have most of the music I received then, such as our football game pieces and our formal stuff for competitions. I cannot find my book with all the notes and keys in it, so I can't really play all that well. I need some help with the notes and stuff, so can you give me a few tips? Any help at all is wonderful.

I've only played a cornet once, so I'm not sure of the difference, but it should be basically the same as trumpet.
I'm not really that good at explaining stuff... so I'll let others help you more. (I wish I could, I'm probably talented enough to help someone out...)

Yeah, the cornet is exactly the same as the trumpet, but the tone sounds(to me) naturally stuffy.I play trumpet. If you need NE help with it, just look at my thread in this section. It's called "TRUMPET ADVICE FOR EVERYONE!!!" Technically though, most brass can benifit from that thread to, it's all the same.
