Hello and welcome! It's great that you've stumbled across my channel.
Here you'll see a range of mostly brass instrument related content ranging from serious performances including multi-tracks and solos, to educational videos about music theory, as well as a fair share of reviews, and the odd smattering of unusual instruments and joke content. I hope there's something here that you'll find interesting.
As a horn player, when I saw the trombone get dropped, I died quite a bit on the inside. Seeing any instrument getting severely damaged is extremely painful, R.I.P contrabass trombone.
My band teacher has this exact trombone and once the little switch your thumb goes on broke and he was like "I can still use it" he played some then crossed his right arm over his left to turn the nub anyways all the switch does is switches from 1st position to 6th but all that tubing makes the sound less strong and so he would rather just use the slide normally
Many baritones have a bell forward design, unlike the one shown here. These may also be of the three or four valve variety. This is an instrument I've played from junior high school through college and have had different varieties over the years. I've also seen a double belled euphonium, each of which is controlled by another valve.
The first time I heard Napoli, it was played on the trumpet by Wynton Marsalis. Same with Carnival of Venice. They are great virtuoso pieces that really challenge the players. The best euphonium players I have heard in America are affiliated with the military bands. They set the highest standards for musicianship.
Dang, Im here in 2024 lookin for mutes to help my son with home practice/Jazz Ensemble... while at the same time Im on episode 8 of Band of Brothers for the first time and just lovin the theme so much. Thanks for the demo and good tunes.
Absolutely glorious! Love the cimbasso! It's kinda like a tuba, but sounds more farty like a contrabass trombone or something! Definitely has the sound of that family. 😅😆👍🏻 good stuff! Very cool!
For me apparently is a marching baritone AKA marching euphonium, here in Mexico city Mexico. it is actually in Bb key tenor register even though its called baritone, but it is not baritone at all, the tubing is tapered, its cousins are the Marching french horn and Eb euphonium. Here in Mexico Latin America the design may differ and have little differences from those on Europe, and here are supplied from Chinese manufacturing by factories such as Frater, Shandong crown, Jimbao, Tianjin, and so on.
I played baritone in highschool but never after that since i didn't own a baritone. I think I'm going to get one of these just to play around with. It's been 8 years and i feel like I've forgotten everything so it would be fun to have a cheap way to just okay around with it.
From the point of view of a recorder player who wants to practice without disturbing others, I can't recommend the Vangoa instrument. The recorder sound is awful. and the way to play sharp, flats and octaves is different. For this purpose, I find that the Blackstar Carry On digital recorder is much better. It is identical to a recorder, you play sharps flats and octaves the same way, the recorder sound is so much better than the Vangoa, and its built in speaker has much more volume.
