[@svendbosanvovski4241]

I saw him at the Sydney Town Hall playing bee bop on a tuba and with one hand and jazz piano with the other simultaneously. He professionally also plays sax, cornet & trumpet, flugelhorn, trombone, clarinet, euphonium and double bass, and when I say play, I mean at a world class level. He also has a great understanding of musical history, which he often shares during his performances. In fact, he can, if he wishes, place the title Professor before his name, because he had taught for many years as adjunct professor at an Australian university.

He's got a trigger trombone which you can use instead of the slide for most notes high up in the register whilst staying in first position - you'll see he triggers it with his thumb

You can play an entire Bb scale in first position, you can also play “The Lion Sleeps Tonight” completely in first position. (At least the part everyone knows)

In the higher register the overtones are close enough to one another that by using the trigger you can play entire scales in 1st position.. really useful if you need to turn pages or something

You can get two notes with a double buzz, and then sing the third one. Sometimes when my chops are really blown I get the second buzzed note unintentionally, but I haven't figured out how to do it when my lips are fresh.
