What would you say is the best routine for your slide to stay slick and fast?

[@matthewpham2170]

I would say that the best way to keep your slide smooth and fast is before you oil or grease your slide, I suggest wiping all of the oil off before hand. So get like a towel and just wipe off the slide. And then apply everything else on (Slide O Mix and misty water).

Don't the tubas also have this?

[@tonybone4]

It looks like they do. The selectors don’t coordinate on etude selections, and the final etude selection is made by TMEA.

@@tonybone4 Makes sense.

[@rubber_chicken6029]

What alternate positions would you recommend for this etude

Do you offer private lessons

[@tonybone4]

If you’re talking about regularly scheduled private lessons, no, not so much. My teaching duties at UNT and my performance schedule keep me pretty busy. However, if you’re a prospective student who’s looking at UNT and would like to get a lesson, we can definitely figure something out. We can communicate further off KZbin. My email address is [e-mail].
