No, Dizzy has a disability that keeps him from keeping his cheeks in while playing.

Who knows? There are probably five different stories about his cheeks, as well as his bell.

I agree. I would make my cheeks explode like that if I was going that high. =) I love my trumpet.

dude...trumpets dont use reeds..

Yes. Reed players (like saxophones) can play much longer than brass players (like trumpets) because their lips aren't under as much stress. I think you may have misunderstood my comment.
