Christian, Thank-you for an excellent video (as usual). Great help for me changing spring and cork (yup cork now shipping from factory). Used some painters tape to prevent scratches. Job was easy!
Thanks, Gerry. I met you at the Trombone Workshop at Fort Myers about 10 years ago and have a few of your CDs. You have such a clean, open sound! I have a King 5B that has that sound! But it is not a bass, a .547 bore.
This is one of the most interesting and informative discussions I’ve come across in years. Chris us by far one of the most outstanding bass trb players america has produced. Edwards trbs are again one of the worlds finest trombones comparable with any on the market.
Fantastic!! I love the piece on piano, but it’s even better on Trombone. It’s like all of the adults in Charlie Brown’s life got together for a chat. 😁
Great interview and chat between two very talented muso's. Thanks (from someone who plays one of your trom's using a greigo mouthpiece). Fascinated by the discussion on how to balance exercise, life, diet etc to maximize performance. For me personally its about being adequately but not overly hydrated on an earlier light meal or snack!
This is not the best 4tet arrangement or recording ever, by any means. But if you just concentrate on the handing off of the melody between multiple players and that they all manage to sound like 1, that in itself is a rare accomplishment. If you watch this with your eyes closed, you cannot even tell when the melody changes hands. And that is a rare and special treat.
Terrific interview. Amazingly talented player. Nice if the interview cut off when you finished I guess. Maybe there's a new meme phrase "close enough for podcast"... (btw, I hate the saying "close enough for jazz..." that mustt be all bad high school jazz band directors that use that).
