I’m Ryan Hobbs, Professor of Trumpet at Illinois Wesleyan University and an active performer across Chicago and the Midwest.
I’ve shared this warm-up with hundreds of students — from beginners to professionals — and it’s the single most effective way I know to improve tone and endurance quickly.

This is the exact warm-up I use every day before rehearsals, gigs, and teaching.
