L etude et la pratique ne suffisent generalement pas pour qu un musicien autodidacte atteigne un niveau professionnel. L importance du professeur est primordiale pour conseiller, corriger et faire en sorte que l etude de l instrument se fasse naturellement et le plus agreablement possible, en fonction de la personnalite de l eleve. Le but de cette methode est de procurer a l eleve ambitieux, les elements indispensables pour acquerir les connaissances de base de la theorie et obtenir une embouchure souple et puissante. Les levres doivent etre souples et sensibles pour que l expiration les pousse rapidement a vibrer contre l embouchure de l instrument avec un minimum de pression. Commencez toujours la lecon doucement pour ne pas blesser les levres. Un echauffement est necessaire pour supporter les efforts. La force d embouchure etant differente d un individu a l autre, il est impossible de definir un temps ideal de pratique. Ne jamais insister quand les levres sont fatiguees. Il faut avoir une discipline de travail et de repos pour atteindre un bon niveau afin de progresser sans pour autant se blesser et souffrir inutilement. Ne gaspillez pas de temps avec des etudes qui depassent vos capacites mais ne le perdez pas non plus sur des choses trop faciles. Sachez que la qualite du son et la vitesse viendront sans effort si vous avez ete efficace et precis dans votre travail. N oubliez jamais qu il faut avoir du plaisir a jouer.
