Beautiful, and Happy New Year to you my friend, from the Moderna wuss!

Barlilman2001, I am worried about you as we know you were having this concerning health issues and it has been awhile since hearing from you. Are you well! My thoughts go out to you with hope and prayer.

@bigdub said in A little humour:

Well, we did, they said, but recently they heard that one out of four children born in the world is Chinese, and they just didn’t think they could take the chance.

So do you think that punch line will go viral?

I have monovision contact lenses such that my left eye reads close, my right eye reads far, and playing with the stand tilted at a 45 degree angle, I can see both pages perfectly.... and it clears any resistance of the bell blowing into the stand. I see 20/20, and the audience hears 20/20 in this way!

@bigdub said in A little humour:

Dustin and Jane (both blonde) were delighted when finally their long wait to adopt a baby had come to an end.

The adoption centre called and told them they had a wonderful Russian baby boy, and the couple took him without hesitation.

On the way home from the adoption centre,

They stopped by the local college so they each could enrol in night courses.

After they filled out the form, the registration clerk inquired,

“Whatever possessed you to study Russian?”

The couple said proudly,

“We just adopted a Russian baby and in a year or so he’ll start to talk. We just want to be able to understand him.”

Sounds to me that this couple may be Russian in to a bad decision. If you ask me, I think it's Bulchivic.

@gloucestre said in Amati-Kraslice - the ones we love to hate?:

Not sure how to date it

Tell the horn you love it, and promise not to rub it the wrong way... After that, you're own your own.

Weave seem to think the thread is working, but I may be knit picking or am I needling ya' all. This thread is to dye for!

Certainly can handle going from a round avatar to a square avatar... as the song says, so hip to be square. Thanks Huey Louis!

test works but formatting has changed.

So has any noticed a format change, and that our administrator has lost his trumpet from his avatar?

Gloucestre, nice caricature. I great to have you with us.. I have been an odd player for 50 years.

@j-jericho said in Famous Signature Songs:

How about this one for Uan Rasey?:
True 'nuff this was Uan's signature song. I believe played this on an Olds Recording. But while not Till's signature, his version seems to move me the most:

@bigdub

Yeah, she is good, Wayne. I've watched quite a few of her videos.

Did you watch closely at 3:39 on. You can really see the facial muscles from the upper lips toward the orbits of her eyes work as she uses the "phwoooooo" embouchure. It is a much softer approach to the embouchure, and is the most efficient from the concept of expanding energy for trumpet playing.

It was TIne that said in an interview posted elsewhere on this blog that "I do not buzz". In fact, she "phwooooooooos".

Here is the "official" complete version of "A Child is Born"

By the way, here is the actual recording with the score attached for anyone that would like to try to keep this "tradition" going.

Nice work aTrumpetdude.

I too played a performance I was hired to perform through our local musician's union 101-473 of the American Federation of Musicians at the Troy First Lutheran Church. Sorry I do not have a recording to post, but of interest, in the now 3 years I have been hired to play this performance, I have always tried to get "A Child is Born" by Thad Jones on the program, but to my dismay, without approval by the organist or the pastor. But this year, we had a new organist, more progressive in terms of Lutheran lore, and she took the bait and let me perform "A Child is Born" as a solo. Oh how it resonated within the high arches of the church. And while it may have broken with Lutheran tradition, the German Pastor loved it, and perhaps, just perhaps, "A Child is Born" by Thad Jones will be a new Lutheran tradition... Well at least in Troy Ohio!
