Velocity lies at the heart of brass performance, serving as the bridge between technical proficiency and artistic interpretation. Embracing its principles elevates our playing from mere execution to true musical storytelling.

To put this is simpler terms, if you adhere to the physics, all methods will work for you – if you ignore the physics, no methods will work!

Brass musicians who grasp the intricacies of velocity possess a formidable advantage on their journey toward musical mastery. It’s the catalyst for unlocking the full range of colors and textures inherent in our instruments.

For brass players committed to continuous improvement, a deep understanding of velocity is non-negotiable. It’s the foundation upon which we build our technique, enabling us to navigate the complexities of the musical landscape with confidence and precision.
