When I play RI I can only play low notes and to get the higher ones I still apply mpc pressure. Is this OK?

No, there must be something wrong. Probably your lips are not properly rolled in. Is the LCS working or is this still a problem? This is the first indication whether you should be doing the RI exercises already. E or G top staff are the only notes you simply CAN play in this setting.When you do it right it is hard to play lower notes.

Trio Bert Lochs feat. Lydia van Dam

youtubelogo

Nice live video's from a concert in Boxmeer. Filmed and edited by Juul Thielen, sound engineer: Guido Nieuwdorp, mix: Bert Lochs

Van Laar

Bert Lochs plays a Van Laar B8 trumpet and a van Laar B2 flugel. A customized Curry 10.5C trumpet mouthpiece and a self designed piece on his flugelhorn. Both pieces share a sixties (Ratzenberger) Jettone rim.

Reviews

 

"The album is mainly about sound and melody  and certainly not about obstinateness or dissonance. The first thing you notice is the fine, full sound of Lochs and guitarist Florian Zenker.
