From earl.kd5xb at gmail.com Sat Dec 1 22:29:10 2018 From: earl.kd5xb at gmail.com (Earl Needham) Date: Sat, 1 Dec 2018 21:29:10 -0700 Subject: [Trombone-l] I'm teaching a beginner... Message-ID: and that beginner is ME! Out of desperation (and hunger), in 2002 I dropped my "life" and started driving a truck. I dropped everything. Including trombone. Now I have time for trombone, but about six months ago, I got out the Duo Gravis and promptly discovered I can no longer play! Nothing sounded right, and pedal tones wouldn't sound at all. After a few tries, I put it all away and just kind of thought that part of my life was over. I was no longer that "very fine Bass Trombone player" I used to be. I just happen to have a late '30's 2B Liberty here, and a few days ago I got it out and gave it a blow. It wasn't so bad! I played a few scales for a couple of days. It's weird knowing where I want the note but not always getting it there. And I still know all those scales that trombonists should never be asked to play, like E Major and even B minor, but somehow my right arm doesn't always go where it should. Yesterday, I scored a new Rochut Book #1 (ed. Alan Raph) and I have gone to town. I have quickly discovered I have no endurance, LOL! But I have also discovered just how nice this 2B sounds WHEN I DO MY PART. I don't know just where I'm going with this email, except to tell everybody that I have just begun a unique experience, that of being the instructor and student at the same time. Double the pleasure, double the fun...

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Hey, Earl! Welcome back! If anything, I?d recommend getting the Micheal Davis ?15-Minute Warm-Up.? It?s a play along that starts with long tones and works through to intervals, chromatics & scales. It?s a complete, concise warmup that covers all the bases. With the added benefit of tracks recorded by the pro + rhythm section to guide you through AND give you a sound to strive for. Religiously make it the start to your practice routine for a few weeks. (It only takes 15-minutes, right?) You will see marked improvement quickly. At a minimum I use it on gig days to get centered, and then off on my way. And if I skip it (or don?t warm up) my face fights me the rest of the day. I actually loaded it as a playlist on my phone. Coupled with my Bluetooth headphones & a practice mute, it worked great on tour ?warming up in the backstages & church halls without offending anyone. ?? Not an end all-be-all. But it helped me get my sound centered again after a long layoff. And is still part of my routine. That, and get out and play with people! Best of luck! Cheers!

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: <27f443a3-518d-4532-91d1-6b63d8506ede@gmail.com> Hi Earl, I frequently take breaks in my playing, but admittedly not as long as yours! I always find that my range is easy to get back, but my endurance and sound take some time to recover. I have found that frequent playing to fatigue point, but not past that point (!), Allows me to get to an acceptable standard in the shortest amount of time. It's important not to do any damage!

Lip slurs are good for rebuilding strength and flex. I?ve also found that lip bending helps get my chops flexing on days after a tough gig or when they feel stiff due to age. I?ve switched up a lot of things since I took a break in 2002 to drive a truck too. I only did it for three years then won my audition for the job I have now. Now all I do is play full time and teach private lessons. I did those before so I?ve never stopped teaching those. Best wishes!

All of the mouthpieces have perfect plating on the rim and inner cup with only minor appearance flaws as noted in the description. Please email photos. All of the mouthpieces have perfect plating on the rim and inner cup with only minor appearance flaws as noted in the description. Trombone: Both are small shank Bach 5 - $35 This mouthpiece is in very good condition with only some wear on the shank. The name marking is VINCENT BACH 5 without "CORP" or any other information. Schilke 53 - $40 This mouthpiece is in excellent condition with minute scratches on the shank. Euphonium: Denis Wick SM3.5 - $55 Excellent condition with only a few minute scratches on the shank and a bit of tarnish from sitting in a case. Tuba: Perantucci PT-84 - $65 This mouthpiece is in overall very good condition with a few minor flaws. The shank has insertion wear and is slightly out of round - my mouthpiece shank tool is in a box somewhere, so the price reflects the flaw. There is also a slight gouge in the outside of the cup that doesn't penetrate the plating. -- *Chris Waage, DMA* Music Director, Lexington Wind Symphony, Lexington, Missouri Freelance teacher, clinician. and low brass artist From jim at jimnova.com Sat Dec 15 14:43:19 2018 From: jim at jimnova.com (Jim Nova) Date: Sat, 15 Dec 2018 15:43:19 -0500 Subject: [Trombone-l] Rey's Theme/Kylo Ren's Theme Message-ID: <30C46687-74CB-428E-A6A1-9A08B321A3AF@jimnova.com> Hi everyone! I can't believe it's been a year since my album "A Fall from Light to Dark" came out! Well...naturally the best way to celebrate, is to release a track going on the NEW album!! My latest overdub is of "Rey's Theme" and "Kylo Ren's Theme" as heard in the closing titles to "Star Wars Episode 7: The Force Awakens." These 2 characters represent the conflict which is central in the story unfolding in the latest Star Wars trilogy. As usual, John Williams paints a lasting and powerful portrait of these characters through his amazing score. https://soundcloud.com/jimnova/reys-themekylo-rens-theme James Nova Trombone - Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra Brass Area Coordinator and Adjunct Trombone Faculty - Duquesne University Brass Coach - Three Rivers Young Peoples Orchestras jimnova.com From chris at trombone.org Mon Dec 17 07:22:24 2018 From: chris at trombone.org (Chris Waage) Date: Mon, 17 Dec 2018 07:22:24 -0600 Subject: [Trombone-l] OTJ Classifieds Update - 12/17/18 Message-ID: The Online Trombone Journal Classifieds - http://www.trombone.org/classifieds - have been updated as of 7:21 AM CDT on December 14, 2018.
