What is the symbol which indicates a mute for brass instruments in sheet music?

The basic use of the mute is to alter the sound coming from the instrument. "Straight mutes" are used for sections in music that require a more nasal sound, and can also be used when a trumpet player plays oboe cues when there is no oboe player. "Cup mutes" make the nasal sound of the straight music more mellow, and they often come in the form of a "cup" than attaches to the straight mute. "Bucket mutes" give brass instruments a more mellow sound and can substitute for flugal horns. A substitute for a bucket mute is to play into the music stand. Harmon mutes are generally used to make a "cool" nasal sound and can be used with and without the stem for more options. Plunger mutes are literally the end of a plunger (only the simple type of plunger) used to make the "wa-wa" effect. If the music just says "mute" it is referring to a straight mute... unless it is jazz music, in which case it means a Harmon mute.


What do you use a mute for?

While mutes do make the sound quieter, they are usually used to change the sound of the instrument, called the "timbre." Mutes are like the special effects of the music world. Among brass instruments, mutes are most common in trumpet and trombone. They are rarely used in euphoniums, baritones, and tubas. A straight mute is the most common. It gives the instrument a quieter, crisper sound. It is generally used in symphonic music. The rest are more common in jazz music: A cup mute makes the sound soft and clean. A harmon mute (or "wah" mute) has the mute part and a stem. It is used for its piercing, reedy sound. Nowadays, they are usually used with the stem out, but the namesake "wah" sound is created with the stem in. A common harmon mute user was Miles Davis. A plunger mute is literally shaped like the rubber cup of a toilet plunger with a hole drilled all the way through where the handle is inserted. In fact, all the professionals I know just bought toilet plungers for their plungers mutes. By opening and closing the plunger over the bell, the player can make a "doo-wop" sound. (Think Duke Ellington!)
