All of the below have addressed the warming up of the player. What about the instrument?
For time issues like Mike Russo mentioned, I usually do a pretty brief warm-up -- usually scales and long tones. I find that, even if I'm particularly fresh or feeling in tone, that the horn needs to warm up with me -- certainly temperature-wise, if not in other ways.
Or am I imagining this . . . ?
