Tuning any instrument is crucial to achieving the proper sound. Without proper tuning, most people would rather listen to no music at all than to screechy or completely flat notes. Watch this video for tips on how to tune your trumpet.

As the clip shows, trumpets and other brass horns have tuning slides that are used to tune the instrument. Sometimes, you want your instrument to be sharper, and other music calls for a more muted sound to complement the other instruments in the band or orchestra.
