Way back before the electric age of microphones on everything and microphones on the field to get it louder. Which fucks up every thing. Plus now you have 30+ people in the auxiliary.
You using a Bob Reeve 42SV on this tune? What backbore, 69? I've been playing a Schilke 6A4A for years and am curious about trying something new. Thanks!
Could play most of this as a HS freshman... then I got my braces off. Turns out, I never built up my endurance- just relied on my brackets. Range dropped two octaves (high F to in the staff F). As an incoming senior, I'm able to play about 50% again. These play alongs are helpful
i can almost nearly play this on my Bb trumpet, with a 7C mouthpiece! I'm wondering if that's good, the notes defo aren't as good as they are here, but I am playing this as a freshman going into sophomore year in high school.
I know Matt is looking back at the corps director after some of these run throughs, but there are times when he’s looking at us lucky folks to be in Military Park watching/listening to warmups with that “Did you hear that? Did you hear how freaking clean that was? I love my job” look on his face.
