Due to multiple family commitments, I have been out of the Sunday sessions loop for about a month. According to the WindWorks website, there have also been disruptions to the Sunday sessions during that timeframe. The website indicates that some Sunday sessions will not be held but the website does not specify dates for those…[Read more]

I became intrigued and looked it up. I found several other books by the same author. I purchased two of them. I’d love to hear Greg’s comments on this author and these titles as well as the comments of any other members who’ve read either of these books.

I thought a lot of what Charlie shared was congruent with what Greg teaches, just stated differently. What are your thoughts? https://youtu.be/jn0GnOX4FwM

I happened across this short video of Maynard Ferguson demonstrating his breathing technique. I’d be curious to hear your thoughts (and especially Greg’s) about its usefulness. Is this how you breathe when you play the trumpet? Do you use some other technique? https://youtu.be/qqYln7Ef6gk

I try to hear and understand the characteristics of their particular trumpet voice; nuances like their tone, their pitch, their articulation and their phrasing. I try to hear what they’re doing and I try to figure out…[Read more]

I really appreciated what you shared on the Sunday session. I respect that you have discovered something that works for you and I admire your willingness to risk being judged and share it with the rest of us. I also thought that it led to a very helpful piece of instruction from Greg (Spence).

I’m sorry to see go. I think, if I…[Read more]

When you do listen to music, who currently fascinates you?

My name is Brad.

I am 62 and I have been playing the trumpet (for the first time) for just over a year.

I LOVE – LOVE, LOVE, LOVE – the trumpet!

I had the good fortune of discovering Greg Spence and his approach at the start of my trumpet journey. I quickly completed the complementary Largo level of his course and that set the…[Read more]
