"What makes your book so incredibly rich is that it's a collection of basic, gradual and pragmatic skills which can be made as complicated as one pleases. So regardless of one's level (beginner or advanced) it is an unlimited recourse of training. I should have known it 40 years earlier!" Andre

“Hi Greg, Just wanted to let you know how much I’m enjoying MTM. I purchased it approx. 2 weeks ago and started digging in. I was a little nervous because yesterday was my first jazz gig after practicing from MTM. I’m a 54 year old player and I’ve been pushing air into the trumpet for a long time. But in a 3 set jazz gig, I’m normally fighting tired chops by the 3rd set. But not last night. I was amazed how much stamina I had all the way to end. Thank you, thank you!! I guess older dogs can learn new tricks! Jeff”

When we begin playing trumpet, we get a book of exercises or tunes, learn the notes then hope to play the music we love. We figure this is how simple learning the trumpet is...
"Greg, when I came back from Vietnam in 1972 I tried playing the trumpet again after 4 years of military service. I practised 3 times a day and got to a point where I couldn’t even produce a sound .My trumpet teacher couldn’t figure out what I was doing wrong. I gave up the trumpet for the next 40 years thinking, I blew my lip out and did permanent damage, and couldn’t ever play the trumpet again. Thanks to your videos and lesson books I’m once again just starting to play and couldn’t be happier. I’m still in your first lesson book working in gold metal stage. I can’t thank you enough for all the knowledge you’ve passed along . I'm 67 years old and looking forward to getting better each day on the trumpet. Thanks so much for the work you do."

"Hi Greg, the leadpipe came. As I said before, the problem with my throat was between the mouthpiece and the trumpet. So, I figured the leadpipe was the answer I have been looking for. After using the leadpipe for a few minutes, I was able to play a few notes on my trumpet without any throat problems. God bless you! Because of something that costs $49.95, I am now able to play my horns (that were quite expensive), that have been sitting idle for quite some time. I know I am not out of the woods yet, but it is such a relief to know I am on the right track. I can't thank you enough. And I will be ordering your courses in the near future.You are the man!"
Sincerely, Carlo Berto
“What you’ve described in a matter of a few eloquently simple videos explains to a tee what I’ve been struggling with for 35+ years. Tension in the throat, face, neck, back and more. Amazing way that you’ve put so many great teacher’s key elements together combined with all your analysis and experiences into a message that resonates so strongly.”

Train your brain and body what to do using the WINDPRODUCTS. Using the instrument stimulates old, futile habits. Overcome bad, instinctive behaviour by experiencing powerful sensations away from the instrument. Learn how to move air efficiently and how eliminate the destructive habits of pinching the lips and forcing the air.
Pro tip: Watch the adjacent video for more information about the Leadpipe and how it can drastically improve your playing.
Don't Let Your Instincts Slow You Down
What you actually need to do and what you THINK you need to do are often the complete opposite
When we begin, we have an instinctive desire to force the sound.
Something tells us that playing the trumpet is hard to do, so we go about making it as difficult as humanly possible.
We are all aware of the horrible choking sensations that can accompany playing. Believe it not, you can play with freedom and without fighting the instrument.
There are several, easy to solve, issues that generally go undetected. These issues have ended many potential careers.
Everyone, INCLUDING YOU, can play like the pro’s!
“The pin has finally dropped Greg, you legend!!! playing professionally for 13 years and have all the tutor books. Maggio, schlossberg, stamp etc!!! As you demonstrated in your vids; relaxed, supple and puckered chops coincided with aperture control is working wonders. A tight and sometimes impossible extreme register is now secure and growing by the day! Spreading the word!!! Cheers”
