I play sax so every note corresponds to a unique fingering so I can't even image how to approach the trombone when one note can be played on multiple positions and you have to pick the best positions to suit the tune?! Mind blown.

steamfend All brass instruments are difficult, but with valve or button instruments, the concern of quick movement in between notes isn’t nearly as prominent as it is on the trombone.

Thats not true. There is many alternate fingerings on the sax
@Michael-Oh5 жыл бұрын
@@mikeyeyey8678 Yeah there is but most of it is like the three ways to play Bb or F sharp and long fingerings for high notes or altissimo notes and that's really it. In fact, most players get by without playing alternate fingerings. Most notes on the sax are linked to one unique fingering. Imagine you can play a C,E,D with 5 different position combinations and you have to decide which one is best on the fly?! Brass players wtf stop trying so hard.

I play violin. I'm here to learn Harmony. And it's working, brass instruments have a different approach to harmony due to coming from the harmonic series to filling the notes in between (violinists usually start from scales and then "jump notes" to intervals- I mean when playing, from a technical/practice approach, of course we take harmony classes, but it's not the same as when you need it as a first approach towards your instrument). Trying to find the same notes in different positions in a trombone works a bit like a quizz to me, since I don't know squat about trombones and sliding, so the only way I have a chance of trying to keep up is going along the harmonic series (in this case maybe a brass player can do the same I'm doing here and study harmony from the dividing of a string POV- 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, and so on). I think we should be less isolated in our bubbles, which is more easily said than done...

The valve trombone is like the trumpet but make sure you can handle the weight and do lots of stretching because I have one and play for hours at a time and my back starts to hurt. Overall it does the job and sounds amazing when someone knows how to play it

@a_literal_brick5 жыл бұрын
That Record in all seriousness, you’re gonna want to get a real trombone as soon as possible. I used to only have plastic in middle school, and they’re pretty much garbage for practice. A decent metal one will be more expensive, but even a terrible one in the same price range as a pBone would be better. If I were you, I would start saving up and asking around if anyone has an old horn that you can take/buy/borrow. It’s definitely worth getting metal. Hope that helps

I had a plastic one so i could carry it to school (I had to walk for like 20 minutes) but then I spent £70 on a second hand one that turned out to be the slide of one model and the bell of another but even that was an improvement.
