Malcolm McNab - Brass Chats Episode 19

[@michaelfarrow4648]

As a former trumpet player who is now on the "other side" of the glass, I was always thrilled to see Malcolm on the date. No matter what type of score we were doing, his style, tone and tuning were always exactly right. A real pleasure for me to hear.

Very honest man admitting he doesn't have a great history of always being nice. Hats off to your trumpet playing and your honesty about yourself.

[@janecarter569]

From Masuda? Where are you playing these days?

[@elkartian]

Watch and learn ,Not only a fantastic insight to brass playing at the highest level but a valuable life lesson too

[@mrblake7124]

For all those trumpet/band teachers out there in 2020, Malcom said the most important lesson of his life was over the phone. Great interview!

[@ElMcMeen1a]

[@Funkadelic3]

Thank you for this! Malcolm is simply amazing. Ex Frank Zappa trumpet player 👌

[@hillrl51]

Excellent information and honest soft spoken comments. Thank you.

I learned a lot by his simple advice about, how to warm up again with tired lips and about going from pitch centre to pitch centre. And the most important thing is how to go off a note. All good info. I came down with covid and didn't play for nearly four weeks. I played for the first time three days ago. I knew my lips wouldn't do well. My husband said it sounded good, but it didn't last long at all. I have to work up again. When I practice, I often practice three hours. But now I am set backwards. I hate being out of shape, especially coming up on to Christmas.

Good Stuff!!

[@Funkadelic3]

Please try to get Chuck Findley or Rick Baptist on the show!

[@BrassChats]

+joe740544 They're definitely on our short list! Might be a bit though, because we don't make it out to L.A. too often.

[@dallmat44]

Unbelievable.

[@novaj5]

Thanks for a great video. Would you mind if I take some parts of it and translate? I'd love to share some of his wisdom to fellow Korean trumpet players. This is not for profit and credit + link will be addressed of course.

[@explodingsausage6576]

Not sure what the hell he's talking about regarding sliding off the center of the pitch when playing the mouthpiece

[@BrassChats]

I think he's talking about actual pitch. Might be wrong though.

[@THall-vi8cp]

He would be the sugar-free chocolate.
