What Are the trumpet notes?
The trumpet has several “open notes” that are played without any fingerings. These are the same open notes from the harmonic series that a bugle plays and are the notes (listed from lowest to highest) C, G, C, E, G, Bb, and top C. You move between the open notes by using your lips, tightening them to play higher.
