    • RE: Some Of Your Favorite Trumpet Gals

      @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".

      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!

    • RE: Staying in top playing shape post band shutdown

      @georgeb said in Staying in top playing shape post band shutdown:

      Well the second wave of Covid has shut the band down again and it looks like it will be a long one, so I will be stepping up my practice sessions to keep myself in band shape for whatever time is necessary.

      So I thought Canada was getting the curve under control. So sorry to hear this. I did a gig the weekend before Thanksgiving and was told it would be safe... No dancing. All wearing masks. Band would to isolated to a separate area spaced away from the main building... ALL LIES. Band was only 20 ft from crowd, crowd generally was NOT wearing masks, and a good number WERE dancing. A super spreader event to be sure. Was it worth the $150 I was paid. Hell no! But I believed the person hiring me. NEVER AGAIN. I am turning down private gigs for now. Only doing the Church performances I have been contracted to play for now.

    • RE: Why not another thread about bigger horns ?

      @ericmonroes said in Why not another thread about bigger horns ?:

      Anybody can recommend the most expensive trumpet in the world? I researched some blogs and found only this review https://webproductradar.com/most-expensive-trumpet-in-the-world

      Checked out this site. I do no agree. Monette and Harrelson trumpets can be several times more expensive. My Harrelson SWE Summit, brushed silver with 14K gold tuning slides now starts around $14,000 but I have seen it on sale for $12,800.

      Its a shame that Lee Morgan died so young, "The Sidewinder" could be on the list.

      I agree so I made the change.

      What about international players. It gets kind of complicated, they didn't necessarily have charts.

      I've been listening to Chocolate, I assume the "Chocolate Sabroso" is something of a signature sound for him, I'm not sure how popular it is though, now if I can find the sheet music.

      If you spell your name backward and put an umlaut over one of the vowels, that is your Ikea name.

      I am ydanö. I am fairly certain that would be a soap dish.
