Trumpet

The touch pad contains several layers of material. The top layer is the pad that you touch. Beneath it are layers (separated by very thin insulation) containing horizontal and vertical rows of electrodes that form a grid. Beneath these layers is a circuit board to which the electrode layers are connected. The layers with electrodes are charged with a constant alternating current (AC). As the finger approaches the electrode grid, the current is interrupted and the interruption is detected by the circuit board. The initial location where the finger touches the pad is registered so that subsequent finger movement will be related to that initial point.

As a beginner you have to learn the basic rules and moves of the game you want to play. Reading some article on how to play poker is one of the best way for a beginner to become a pro player and of course practice on what you learn.

(edit)

You can call yourself a poker pro if you earn your living by playing poker.

To become one you need to follow whats written above.

If you play micro stakes Texas holdem, i suggest you read the book Polished Poker

Try e-mailing their band director and ask

No one knows for certain as it is so old.

The oldest trumpets date back to 1500 B.C.E. and earlier. The bronze and silver trumpets from Tutankhamun's grave in Egypt, bronze lurs from Scandinavia, and metal trumpets from China date back to this period.[

There isn't really any way to answer that. There are hundreds, if not thousands of trumpet solos. Almost every major composor wrote at least a couple of trumpet solos, some wrote many...

trompit was the very first name for the trumpet

It depends. The trumpet uses less air, but it takes alot to get high notes. And same goes for mellophone. They are heavier than trumpets and lower in some volume, notes wise. Like, if you played french horn, it would be easier to play mellophone because it is in the same range with fingerings and air volume. Trumpets are the same throughout. But in conclusion, they are pretty much the same. The only difference is sound and weight.

You play a whole step down from the written note. When an F horn player is asked to play a written C, the note that will come out will be an F concert pitch. When an Eb horn player is asked to play a written C, the note that will come out will be an Eb concert pitch. That is why they are called F and Eb instruments. So when an F horn player is asked to play a C written for an Eb horn, in order to play the concert Eb, he will have to play a Bb. You will be adding two flats to your key signature (mentally), and if sharps are in the Eb part's key signature, you will cancel two of them. In the case of the key of G major, where there is only one sharp, you will cancel the sharp and add one flat.

It depends on which D. The D on the bottom space, the only fingering is 1-3. D on the 2nd line down from the top, the fingerings are 1 or 1-3. D above that, there are a couple of alternates, but I can't recall them right off hand.

to empty the one on the main tuning slide, just hold the lever, or push the button, depending on the kind of spit valve you have, and blow air into the trumpet. To empty the one on the third valve slide press all three valves down, and push the lever/button on the spit valve, and blow air.

Depends on the piece, but in my music the violin is the melody while the bass, cello and viola are the harmony.

Depends on the musician, too. Ask the violinist this question and s/he will say the violin. Ask any other instrumental part and invariably they will claim "their part" is the most important one. Truth be known, collectively every musician, no matter what instrument or part they play, contributes equally to the end result, so, in effect, every section is the most important part.

The word trumpet comes from the 14th century and is a variation of the word triumph. Throughout history, trumpets have been associated with three things: signaling armies, splendorous music for royalty, and in religious rituals. The main purpose of trumpets in the 14th century was as a signaling device to convey orders to soldiers in the midst of battle so that the army could triumph over their enemy.

tubas have multiple slides, and one tuning slide

It is called "Taps", and it's on the Bugle. not the Trumpet.

Depending on the type of instrument, the air moves in a variety of ways to create various sounds.

In a woodwind instrument the air is directed by a mouth contact point (Saxophone = Neck, Flute = Lip Plate, Clarinet = Barrell). The air must be directed properly causing it to bounce back and forth along the body of the instrument. At the points of air contact, you will find holes. The various pitches are created by the hole remaining open or being sealed off via a pad made usually of felt covered in leather or fish bladder.

In a brasswind instrument the air is used differently. A brasswind instrument is constructed of various tubing diameters and lengths. As the air travels through the instrument valves are depressed which allows the air to pass through the correct tubings and make it's ay out of the bell of the instrument. The larger the tubing and the longer path that the air must travel to reach the bell, the lower the pitch that is created. These pitches can be fine tuned by using adjustable slides. Pulling the slide out will flatten (lower) the sound pitch. Pushing the slide in will sharpen (increase) the sound pitch.

The Flute is in the Woodwind section/family and the Trumpet is in the Brass section/family.

im a music teacher so i should know but i didnt get to learn that

The euphonium, which is a kind of "tenor-sized tuba," can be found in concert bands often providing a soloistic tenor voice.

It depends on what you mean. If you mean, is the trumpet a transposing instrument, yes, if you're talking about anything other than a C trumpet, which is in concert pitch. Trumpets in all other keys are not concert pitch. For instance, when playing on a B-flat trumpet, the note that you learn as a D is actually a concert pitch of C.

If you are asking do trumpet players have to transpose music, the answer is, yes, generally speaking, but it depends what music you are playing. For instance, if you are playing on a B-flat trumpet and playing music written for the B-flat trumpet, you play the music as is. If you are playing on a B-flat trumpet but playing music written for C trumpet, you have to play the music up a step.

The initial sound is that created by the lips vibrating in teh mouthpiece. The vibrating air is then sent around using lno valves and a combination of valves variouys tibes to change the frequency

As with most major manufacturers, new Getzen trumpets retail anywhere from a few hundred dollars to well over a thousand. The value of a used trumpet will depend on many things, including the trumpet model, its age, and general condition.

There's no way to tell you without seeing it in person... The value of a trumpet doesn't just depend on what brand it is. It depends on age, condition, playability, among other things. If you contact a reputable instrument repair shop in your area, they can likely either tell you how much it would be worth, or give you a rough estimate.
