Trumpet
The trumpet is the smallest member of the brass family. The sound on trumpet is produced by vibrating the lips together in a small mouthpiece. Trumpet usually play the melody (recognizable) part, therefore students who choose and are selected for trumpet should exhibit a confident demeanor, strong personality, and demonstrate a high level of self-motivation.
HOW DO GET AN INSTRUMENT?
You have several options on how to get an instrument?
1. You can rent or purchase an instrument from one of our recommended and trusted music stores. You can purchase an instrument up front or you can "rent to own" an instrument. When you rent to own you will pay a month to month rental fee until the amount of the instrument is paid off. Please scroll down to view and find the links to the music stores we do business with.
2. You can choose to use a Lake Worth ISD School Owned trumpet. The fee for using a school owned trumpet is $40 for the school year. However the you are responsible for purchasing the instrument supplies for the trumpet. Please note that we only have a limited number of trumpet. We will be assign school owned instruments to returning band students first and the remaining school owned trumpet will be given on a first come first serve basis.
