      @kehaulani said in Artist on BOARD:

      Look at a Monet and simultaneously listen to Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun and you can intuit it.

      I almost never paint without music ( my own very diverse ) playlist playing in the background. Not loud at all, just enough so I can hear it.
      It would feel awkward to paint in silence.
      Interesting about your instructor, too, Kehaulani. I think you mentioned it before, and I thought the same thing.

      I agree with the admin - after going off the rails and into undesirable directions, name calling and personal abuse, I am finally locking this thread. Enjoy.

      Well, I am surprised. This fellow can sing. I never thought I would ever hear those old ballads from the lips of Robert Palmer. Thanks for sharing.

      @stumac Phase is not what causes the frequency that we "hear". I find more evidence that the size and taper of the trumpet bell "amplify" frequencies starting in the second octave. An 1300 Hz horn is around 4.8" in diameter at the mouth according to horn theory... This would damp the fundamental which is below cutoff severely.

      That was great fun. I grew up watching those old musicals and thought I was in love with Vera Ellen and her gorgeous legs. Gene Kelly was definitely America's best athletic dancer and proves by some of the scenes in this video. Lot of hard work must have went into editing all those scenes to match the rhythm of Jackson's song. Just proves that music taste can change but rhythm never changes.

      It has a Mahavishnu Orchestra Visions of the Emerald Beyond sound to it.
      Very Good!

      @Kehaulani said in Does a large bore horn take more air?:

      So I'm a little confused.

      Could we summarize, then, in layman's terms, that the amount of air required doesn't necessarily depend upon what the bore size is but, rather, upon the collective design of the horn which includes a myriad of factors?

      In other words, do some horns take "more air", horn-by-horn, depending on how it's constructed rather than on bore size alone?

      Exactly this - horn by horn, depending on how it is constructed, how we hear ourselves, the efficiency of the entire body/mind/mouthpiece/trumpet/playing environment system. Even the term "amount of air" is not correct as our bodies have no measure of this except running out before a phrase is finished. We can believe that the horn is a loose blow indoors, we take it out to an open lake and the same system is like blowing into a brick wall!

      I finished a set at the Blue Wisp Jazz Club in Cincinnati, and the owner came over to me and said "You sound like Clifford Brown reincarnated".

      @administrator it’s a medium bore made in 1956. @Newell-Post the corks and felts are in good condition and appear to have been recently replaced. This was part of the pleasant surprise. I expected a horn of that age to be pretty worn or have come out of a closet with stuck slides, rotten corks etc. I’d even researched replacement lead pipes in case that was necessary, but the original is as clean as a whistle.
      @Dr-GO yes 100%. I particularly love the tonal range that it provides.

      Just re-watched "The Station Agent." That was a completely different type of movie, but it was Dinklage's first leading role, I think. It also had some interesting early parts by Bobby Cannavale (Will and Grace), Michelle Williams (Dawson's Creek), and John Slattery (Mad Men).

      Besson enharmonic trumpet from a local dealers private collection.
      Apparently quite rare.
      Unfortunately he has no mouthpiece that adequately fits

      I love this horn.

      FWIW, the virus lock-down hasn't affected my practicing at all. Other stuff, big time. But practicing and music-related activities. - no.
