My first day of college starts this upcoming Monday and honestly I’m so nervous as a Music Ed major. Love that I found your videos to help with my trombone skills, especially in jazz!

Big on the drone with scales. Been using it for my scales and arppeggios for the past 4 months or so and its helped so much

Great video. Number one thing but most forgotten by any player (often teachers as well). Good stuff.

Do you have a special set of headphones. I haven't found a pair I can comfortably wear while playing the trombone.

I use Beyerdynamic DT 770 studio headphones for recording these video. I have semi-large ears and these fit entirely over my ear. This helps with comfort for me. They also have a soft velour like ear pad. They have a "closed back" design and do block out a lot of the acoustic sound in the room so they may not be the best for regular practice. If you are looking for a nice pair for practice, you might want to try the same company's "open back" model (DT 990). These will let in nearly all of the sound that is happening in the room. I put a link below. They are on the expensive side, and due to the fact that they are studio headphones, you may notice a different listening experience than you are used to as they will be tuned to be "accurate" rather than to "sound good". Depending on how much experience you have with studio headphones this can be surprising to people. www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/DT990Pro--beyerdynamic-dt-990-pro-250-ohm-open-back-studio-headphones

@@ShawnBellMusic all over the ear pair of headphones I have tried get in the way of the trombone when I am playing. Forcing me to either hold the trombone differently or wear the headphones incorrectly.
