Antonis Andreou tests the B.A.C. Elliot Mason Trombone

[@hudson.shoemaker]

I come back to this video occasionally to humble myself.

[@Hardcore500mg]

Haha me too bro!

[@MrTBoneMalone]

Man, up until now, I've never heard of this guy, but he's a monster on the bone! This is one time I'm glad I didn't skip over the KZbin algorithm!!! Thanks for posting this!!!

[@mr.lampkins2660]

Yessir. It was a pleasure to hear Antonis explore the limits of that instrument, and others. He plays his truth.

[@frankrehak]

OMG, never heard a trombone player with such articulate, clear sound with soul.....

[@dEadERest]

..how many times have you really paid attention

[@frankrehak]

@@dEadERest All the time;)

[@bamb0049]

this guy has a better tone than 99% of jazz trombone players@@dEadERest

[@Paddy-power]

One of the best bone player I’ve heard. Used to live in Athens I know Greeks are super talented

[@musicforthecause]

"Hey man, wanna test my horn?" ""Sure" (musical genius phases of 1000000 hours of hard work follows)

[@BassTromBen]

Un-fucking-real! You’re a truly bad dude, and I’d love to hear you blow some soulful blues. It’s incredible to hear you get around the horn with such agility. ❤️ 🔥

[@ericcommarato7727]

Lov'in that screw bell...and the playing too.

[@gregoryboyer4846]

[@Saittham1987]

I‘m a bit jealous as a classical trombone player 😄.

0:36 what does he mean by partial settings are different how is that even possible the tubing length is the same as a normal trombone

[@harrisonreed8718]

The partials can have narrower or wider "slots", depending on a lot of different factors in how a horn is built.

[@PumilateVFX]

@@harrisonreed8718 I still don’t understand

[@harrisonreed8718]

@@PumilateVFX Last try -- you know what partials are right? What they are talking about could be two different things, 1) how the partials slot, or 2) how the partials line up. 1) slotting - Some horns "slot" into the partials really well. On some other horns, each partial is like the grand canyon, and once you're in a partial, you can move around with vibrato in that partial no problem because that partial is vast and wide. On other horns, the partials are like gutters really close to each other. You can fall into the gutter easily, but you can't move around in the gutter at all. So trying to use vibrato just makes you move to the next gutter like it's nothing. On yet other horns, the partials are like deep narrow gutters that are also far apart, so that not only can you not do lip vibrato easily, but it is also tougher to leave one partial and get to another. These are what you would call a very stable slot. Some people like one or the other. Grand Canyon Slots are good if you want to have lots of control with your lips and your accuracy sucks. You can fall into partials that are a mile wide. Close row gutter slots can be great if you want to move around the horn a lot like in this video. Spaced out gutter slots might be what an orchestral guy is after, do that they can slot in easily and not be affected by vibrato weirdness. I think they are talking about 1), slotting, and not number 2. 2) how the partials line up, is more about the adjustments you have to make to play in tune, like how sharp your F partial is vs your Bb partial.

[@paulbrewer2374]

“You have dazzlingly technique, no doubt. Could you please play a ballad on that horn now? To me, as important as technique definitely is, interpretation is far more important. I’d like to hear you demonstrate what you can do in that regard on a ballad without no displays of astonishing technique.”

[@mr.lampkins2660]

Paul, These videos are from 2018. You can contact the extraordinary team at B.A.C. to see if they can provide you with content reflecting that style on the instrument.

[@YiannisKassetas]

Antonis can just play the best ballad youve heard he's gone make you cry man , i know i played with him

[@harrisonreed8718]

He was play testing the horn, not trying to entertain you or show off. That is where that guy is at, that's how he tests what he can and can't do on the horn.

[@j.j.yutrom]

How to do tonguing?? Double??

[@jacobruiz97]

Sounds like doodle tonguing to me.

[@j.j.yutrom]

@@jacobruiz97 Thank you 🙏

[@bradleybunk6463]

Sounds like classic Arban style double tonguing to my ears.
