Seit knapp 40 Jahren spiele ich Blechblasinstrumente. Nicht professionell aber ambitioniert. Im letzten Jahr ist mein Vater verstorben und ich habe seine Bassposaune geerbt und beschlossen sie am besten in Ehren zu halten wenn ich sie spiele. Auf der Suche nach Motivation bin ich über dieses Video gestolpert. Gänsehaut pur! Authentisch! Großartig! Immer wenn es mal nicht so läuft ob mit der Posaune oder allgemein gehört dieses Video zur Aufbauphase dazu. Ganz vielen Dank für diese großartige Musik. 😍
Superbement interprété. Bravissimo Maestro sans oublier les autres musiciens : Justesse, interprétation magnifique. Des anges sont descendus sur Terre...
@@johnsimpsen5 He's doing it the whole time though? Tilting down just lets you fit in more lower lip. For me at least, the only register where that helps is in the bottom of the first partial, E2-B1 (which is why bass trombonists deal with constant embouchure shifts). He's playing 1st tenor and most of his notes are within the moderately high Bb3-Bb4 range. Also his bell section is literally resting on his left forearm, like it doesn't screw on properly or something. If you look closely, his F trigger is behind his left hand, so he can't even use it unless he contorts his thumb backwards.
I've never seen any professional trombonist assembling and holding the trombone this way. How would this help hitting certain difficult notes? It has no impact on the bore and the airflow at all. If it had an effect, more people would do this. But I imagine it's quite impracticable to switch the position during playing? My assumption is that it's all about ergonomics. Holding the trombone can be very uncomfortable and people find ways to improve it. If holding the trombone like this is comfortable for him, why not?
Slow compared to what, the one other recording you’ve listened to? I don’t believe there is a tempo marking for the original song, so maybe take it easy with your biases.
