This was very helpful for me. I am doing a level 6 All-State solo for Nyssma and need to do a trill and I have seen great improvements after seeing your video. Thank you so much!
Good stuff here! I like that Gabe Langfur had to say about his trills. He shakes his Bass a little bit for help. I do this too on lower register or wider interval trills. Not enough to be seen easily and hardly felt as well.
I have always been told that we trombone players are the best kissers in the symphony. I’m inclined to think they might have a point. Not to toot my own horn or anything.
Well, this guy only gives half the picture! For the rest Charles Collins is the guy. He says "put the sides of your tongue up on your side teeth. As you go Aah Eeh, Aah Eeh, lift and drop the tongue slightly with the vowel changes, keeping the sides of the tongue on the top side teeth. I got almost instant results with the Collins results!! This chaps comments about the chin movement....I love!!
Hey I don't know If you still need a trombone, but if you do, I have some advice. You should first evaluate your price range. Most good quality trombones with an f attachment are $3,000 to $5,000. Also, evaluate your needs. If you are an orchestral trombonist, looking to make a career or at least attend music university, you should narrow down to large bore trombones from a good quality company, such as Edwards, shires, getzen, courtois, etc. (just to name a few.) If you are a jazz player, i wouldn't recommend a trigger trombone. Also, stay patient and open minded when trying out instruments. only purchase a trombone after trying a lot of varieties and narrowing your selections down to the one you sound best on. It's helpful to bring a friend or another (preferably better) trombone player to act as an impartial when deciding what you sound best on. However, it is ultimately up to you. You should get the trombone that you feel and sound best on. Hope this helps!
When trilling or doing flexibility exercises, does the back of the tongue raise while the tip tucks in behind the behind the bottom teeth when ascending?...Tongue placement?
Lip Trills is a false designation it must be TONGUE TRILLS! The tongue make a movement up and down and so on, then you get pressure difference that two different freqenties let your lips do! r. Gr. Willem van Kooi B.mus.
(sorry that this in English) but he says to just do a slur between small intervals ie: major second. yhis small intervals trills are in the higher range
