Bruce, I was checking you blog again as I enjoy reading the many things you discuss. I watched your video on cleaning the trumpet. Very nice and great for u\young players. Not sure its taught often anymore. But I was rather surprised you did not rinse the inside of the trumpet or slides with water to remove soap residue. I do and recommend it.
Thanks for a fine trumpet blog. Very well done.

Oops! I also do it but you might be correct that I didn’t do it on the video. I’ll watch it myself.
Hey! I want a copy of the eye chart. Will you publish it on the sheet music site?
