Trumpet: Two 3 Note Songs

Hi, I'm Trevor Dimoff. I teach music and band. In this episode, I'm going to show you two three-note songs for the trumpet. Both these songs use three notes, E, D, and C. E, E, D, and C. So the pattern for Hot Cross Buns first. E, D, C. Do that two times. And the next part is C, C, C, C, D, D, D, D. And then repeat the first part. E, D, C. I'll play the first piece and you sing it or play it back to me. Your turn. D, C. Happen again. Sing it or play it. E, D, C. Next part, remember to use your tongue to start the notes. Four C's, four D's. C, C, C, C, D, D, D, D. Last part is the same as the first two. E, D, C. So learn those two pieces and then put it together. Take your time, press pause on the video if you have to. I'll play the whole song. E, D, C. E, D, C. C, C, C, C, D, D, D, D. E, D, C. I'll play it again. Play along with me or sing it. Ah The next song is Eau Claire de la Lune, a French folk song. There's three pieces for me. Here's the whole first part of it. Let me play it again. I think about it in three pieces. C, C, C, D, E, which is just like hot cross buns. C, C, C, C, D, D, D, D, E. Play it back to me. C, C, C, D, E. The next part is just a little bit more, adding a D and a C. I'll play it for you first. Try that with me. C, C, C, D, E, D, C. Try it again. And the last part. C, E, D, D, C. It's the same note that we just ended on. Now if you take away the C. C, E, D, D, C. It's like hot cross buns with an extra note in it. So the last part again. C, E, D, D, C. So I'll play the three pieces again. First piece. Second piece. And the third piece at the end. Try to move your fingers with me before you try to play it. I'll play the whole thing. And that's it. Two three-note songs for the trumpet. Hot Cross Buns and Auclair de la Lune.
