For quite a while I had the idea to make these video tutorials, been teaching with the materials I wrote for almost 10 years already, so, why not use them in videos?
This is a post where I'll put all of the tutorials, for reference.
Lesson 1
Sound emission, playing middle C (actual sound is a B♭ on a B♭ Trumpet) and first melody; "Rock the Blues".
Lesson 2
Holding correctly the instrument, playing middle D (actual sound is a C on a B♭ Trumpet) and second melody using the two notes; "Brassically Funk!".
Lesson 3
Playing a new note, B and a new reggae melody; "So Much for the Reggae".
Lesson 4
Playing E and a new Halloween themed tune; "Trumpetmare"
Lesson 5
In this lesson we consolidate playing E.
Lesson 6
In which we learn to play F and with that we play "We Will Rock You" by Queen:
Additional video
Choosing an instrument; types of instruments, brands, models and prices.
Soon to follow more videos in this very news-post.

Very nice! I had to play trumpet in 5th grade because percussion was full, but flunked out cause I refused to leave classes to go to my lessons xD @Teravex might enjoy these!

Well, you can look at this like that:
There are not that many trumpet players on Newgrounds or stock-music, and you'll have in your music a live instrument that could make the difference. My best selling track is just jazzy loop with a live trumpet on top. Sold 220 times on Audio Jungle o_O
