Blows my mind that it's been 47 years since I've blown a note on a trumpet. I got it greased and oiled and cleaned up yesterday, blew the C scale for a bit. Can't even fathom how I remembered how to play it. My lips seemed to remember a bit of what they're supposed to do, but they felt like hamburger after about 20 minutes. Yowsa.
You never forget how, you just have to build up the muscles again. :) Muscle memory is why you never forget to ride a bike...or practice proper ambusher.
