      @administrator said in I don't know what that is, but I want one!:

      Look at the instrument in the main photo. Is that a flugelhorn?

      How in the world would a person clean it!?!
      Maybe its a flugelnoodle.

      Dr GO

      @ROWUK your cautionary comment is well understood. My work out is prioritized for increasing chest volume (capacity) rather than strength as I agree that brut force is our enemy.

      As for the abs exercise, that's more for toning my middle age spread. πŸ€—

      Always loved Jim Croce's work.
      FWIW Jim Croce is of the few artists that I was unhappy to hear Sinatra cover (when he butchered Leroy Brown)

      I saw that photo and immediately thought, "oh no, another massacre." What a crazy world we live in 😞

      But yes, the practice drones are nice. I especially like the cello sounds over a midi sound.

      I

      I have also reached out to MJ over the past few months, and no response. I do hope he is OK and doing well.

      After no response over earlier this year, decided to create http://www.trumpetforum.com. I helped create the original TM site, and was one of the admins to help get the site built, configured and added various new features/custom programming for the site back in the day.

      Was a great alternative to TH at the time, and was fun! Best wishes to MJ -

      @Richard-III said in Could you have a metal allergy?:

      Thanks for all the info.

      Richard-III you are so welcome. Hope all does work out for your current mouthpiece. If you do notice any of the symptoms starting, one option is gold plating. Gold chops does this for $35. I think it would be worth the try as gold has a great feel and less of a chance of developing a contact dermatitis. Plastic mouthpieces would be an alternative.

      Thanks. I was just asking for others and out of curiosity. I've never had an issue or allergic reaction with any mouthpiece. I don't know why as I've had reactions to metal everywhere else on my body. I've also played really old mouthpieces that were quite worn and the plating very thin with no problems. And I'm talking about many hours a day, every day for years and no reaction. I also play on horns with the lacquer removed with no problems. True that wearing a ring or watch for 16 hours a day is not the same as playing 2-5 hours a day. Exposure level is obviously different. The people who are reactive must be extremely reactive. I would ask them if they have the same issues with rings, watches and piercings.

      I highlighted the important context as it applies to me, who has been giving much of he advice in this thread section. I agree with this disclaimer and it must be important to understand that.

      The advice I give is purely my opinion that comes from my training and 27 years of practice experience as a double boarded certified internist and pediatrician. But most important, beyond this experience, is that anyone posting a question and getting an answer from me is encouraged to take the response to their provider for the final say in decision making. The communication in real time between you, the patient and your physician is paramount and will yield to the best clinical outcome.

      It is my hope and intent that my comments provides a path that brings helpful ideas and options to the physicians providing the actual care plan.

      I'd say pre-owned carol brass is hard to beat on performance to price ratio. Early Elkhart Bachs (prior to 1975) are usually tremendous horns that can be had at a good price too. Connstellations are great if you can get an Elkhart-made horn for under $900.

      @Vulgano-Brother said in How do you feel about vibrato?:

      @administrator I'm conscious of vibrato during rehearsals and practice, but in performance, I concentrate on the whole package, without focusing on the little parts.

      Certainly. I would advocate a holistic awareness to our playing. Very few things can improve our playing more quickly.
