What is ab flat on trumpet?
B flat is played by pressing down the first valve (the one closest to the mouthpiece). Buzz as low a note as possible while holding down the first valve. It is highly unlikely you will be too low, as low B flat is the lowest note playable on a trumpet with only the first valve. Play low C.
What is the fingering for e sharp on the trumpet?
E sharp is the same fingering as F and B sharp is the same fingering as C.
What are the finger positions for trumpet?
The thumb should be ON the first valve and not between the first and second valves. The tendency with everyone that places their finger between the first and second valves is to further bend the thumb's knuckle and thereby shift the right hand in closer to the valves.
