Yes. It would be good to play regularly without, though. And at serious volumes, too. But playing an instrument is great in any case. And trumpets mute really well. A flute like in the comic, for example, doesn't unless you box the whole thing somehow.

I really like the Yamaha silent brass system, too. It's stupidly expensive, but works nicely and the headphones are a neat option.

There are some digital breath controllers out there that can be used to play any virtual instrument. If I played any brass or woodwind I'd definitely check it out.
