Can you buy a trombone for me because I have no money_I am very poor

[@PaulTheTrombonist]

ABO_ HS7 no I won’t , you will value it more if you do some side work and save up for one. As a result of this disciple, it will actually make you a better musician. There are many rental programs out there and ways for you to make this happen

I want to work with you, my friend

Playing trombone saved my life! I'm an amateur and play lead in our community band. I play in a few other venues. A couple months ago during my annual physical my doctor mentioned how clear my lungs sounded at 65. A few weeks later I felt I'll and sure enough I was diagnosed with Covid. I really feel playing trombone has helped me avoid any major breathing issues. Only two days did I have a a little difficulty breathing. I'm still recovering but no major breathing issues.

Saved my life too. I was super depressed, and the trombone was the only thing keeping me going. Then, joined the community band, which set me on the right path.

More sound quality plz I wanna sound like your intro, gives me chills every time PS. Your my favorite player and I love that you've been uploading more👏👏👏

[@PaulTheTrombonist]

Wow this makes me happy, thanks!

Paul, thank you for posting this series of videos. I've been teaching multiple instruments for 42 years and your wisdom is definitely far beyond your chronological years. Especially your emphasis and the way you present proper breathing technique. It's identical to the style of martial arts that I've studied for many years, and although it is only a guess, your demeanor reminds me of someone who is studied the esoteric principles of the martial arts. There is such a tremendous parallel between music and martial arts, and most of it is all about breathing. Thank you, God bless you, and I look forward to more of your videos. Keep doing what you do, the world needs more instructors who put their soul into it the way you do.

[@westcrosby]

WOW, imagine I'm an angel?! Never thought of that --- thanks hah.. I'm definitely learning, the next level, to reach, it's more mental conditioning than technical prowess

[@viscosity7893]

Wow... right when I was wondering about my breathing

[@PaulTheTrombonist]

Sweet! Happy it was helpful to you

[@poltaksimbolon8652]

Thanks Mr Paul

[@TeeCerberus]

[@brandonlowe8457]

Very helpful video, this is one of the many most important factors of playing trombone.

[@PaulTheTrombonist]

thanks Brandon!

[@adriannavigil2146]

This has help me sooo much just in the span of. 10 minutes!!! Thank you so much!!!!!

[@parris50]

I've mistakenly thought that it's all about developing the upper range. My teacher (and yes I am on old guy!) pointed me towards filling my notes more. I've been working on music that uses more of the low register and the failures on my breathing have become strongly apparent. This video underlines the importance of getting the fundamentals right!

[@trombonimacaroni]

Even with the help at the end, I'm still the brokest trombone u ever dun saw

[@password1300]

inhaling in your trombone is like inhaling metal

[@prl.5108]

Love your trombone playing tips, but man, that little kiddie shirt is a shocker!

[@jadynbatchelder1135]

I can’t hold notes for that long, how can I hold the notes for longer? I pretty much just run out of air too fast, and when I take another breath, it takes me too long to get a good breath.

[@chapstic593]

doing gods work

[@rinki9129]

I am a trombone in 7th grade concert band. How many octaves should I be able to play?

[@josephloki6616]

Ultimate Master don’t think of it like that. Think of it as something you can always and should always be improving

[@aletheia874]

hows it going 3 years later

[@cicadaboi101]

I've been breathing exactly like this but I still can barely last 4 bars at 120bpm. And I'm a bass trombone player so it's even worse cause I need more air.

[@Pb-ij4ip]

Take breath through the nose only, through the mouth only, or simultaneously? Or does it depend on the situation?

[@keanadair]

Pb 207.2 I’ve always heard to breath threw the mouth because its much more efficient

[@Pb-ij4ip]

Kean Adair when I play that’s what I do instinctively but I’ve had someone else tell me to always breathe through the nose. From what I can gather, through the nose will help in maintaining the embouchure, but as you say, the mouth is much more efficient. At any rate I’ve become more comfortable with drawing air through the mouth.

[@keanadair]

Pb 207.2 Yeah trust me all pros I’ve seen breathe from the mouth. The only time I’ve heard of breathing through the nose is when I was at a masterclass and they said that breathing from the nose is very relaxed and should be the same feel when you breathe from the mouth

[@Pb-ij4ip]

Kean Adair very well then! I shall continue doing what I already do! Your insight is much appreciated!

[@dmitrishostakovich7561]

I can play good I really can, but I have to take a breath every 3 whole notes.

[@zaneji4751]

wtf dmitri shostakovich

[@enriquethetrombonist1901]

First here baby

[@PaulTheTrombonist]

Welcome! How’s your day going?

[@enriquethetrombonist1901]

Paul The Trombonist pretty good just doing my daily self made range exercises which I started two days ago, currently working on lip slurring between F4 and G4, pretty annoying and difficult progress but I’ll get there eventually

[@PaulTheTrombonist]

@@enriquethetrombonist1901 nice, keep it up. Music will continually reward for your time

[@nootdoot6307]
