All things have a lifetime they come to an end and die, and if you dont let them die when the time comes, they can become zombie like and only deliver existence with no real purpose.

So... are you saying all of us TMers here on TB are in our afterlife? Is TB trumpet heaven? TB does have it's own spirit, and I am wearing a halo... or is that the result of me having one-to-many gin and tonics?

Perhaps it is time to let the old site die so that life can move on.

Amen

@ssmith1226 To answer the question... two large Tupperware containers, as you can see in the background.

It is amazing what you can do with plastic these days (foreground and background included)

@vulgano-brother said in The difference in timbre caused by using additional valves:

We can hear the timbre changes if we cup one ear and play a scale.

That is internal feedback but I am sure others hear it differently. I also get this effect when I have sinus congestion, which in Ohio is a lot of the time.

For me, timbre change happens when I relax, then open up my embochure with my lower lip.

What I hear with alternate fingerings is intonation changes.

...and trumpet playing, whatever brand, is so great for your COPD. Actually the more resistance in horn the better the back pressure is to open up more pulmonary airways.

You mean I have worshiped you all these years under false pretenses?

Or are not my drugs working for you? Another meeting under the bridge may be in order, sir .

Or is Dr GO just another Bot living in the cyber world. I choose the blue .

Sounds like BigDub needs to pitch a fit with Apple.

@dr-go

@trumpetb said in What's the recording in this scene?:

This although neither Chet nor Miles, speaks to me as powerfully as any work by Miles or by Chet, thank you for posting it.

We are hearing work of the highest quality here and hearing the work of genius equal to the very best in the world.

Trumpetb thanks for your perspective. Till Bronner is now my all time favorite musician. Also had the pleasure of meeting him. The next day he invited me on stage and we had the chance to play together and at one point to trading 8's.

What if Mile's trumpet was not muted? It may have sounded like this:
