Developing Your Low Register Video No. 4

[@walterbarrett8597]

Let me put in a vote for exercises developing the pedal register!

[@lvtuba]

I've been employing your techniques in these videos to lock down the Eb forced partial on my 6/4 BBb tuba

[@qkhuve]

Thanks for the series Markey! It really helps playing along with you! I am looking forward to whatever may come next!

Thanks Jim, these have been good workouts while I travel.

Dont know where my comment went, sorry if you get two - Thanks a bunch for these, Mr. Markey. You've been a great help as I prepare for my bass trombone final recital

[@FuerzaDeOsoOk]

Great video! Can you do another series for the high range?

[@markeybone]

Thanks for the request - others have suggested, so we’ll see

[@lvtuba]

I love your flic set up, I totally did that on my tubas

Muito obrigado por compartilhar seu conhecimento, essas rotinas estão me ajudando muito a desenvolver minhas notas graves, tenho bastante dificuldade em realizar essas notas. ❤

If you were working on developing the upper register, would you use the same kinds of exercises and techniques?

[@markeybone]

The concept would be very similar, though I use different specific exercises. But if you apply the concepts in these videos, you’ll likely come up with your own exercises, too

[@bjrnmikkelsen3790]

For normal playing, do you use the 2nd valve for the E’s and B’s more than than the first valve? Is it a preference thing or is 2nd usually better for those tones?

[@markeybone]

Great question! I tend to use the Gb valve for E’s and B’s more; honestly, it’s just a personal preference - both work!

[@92Grego]

What's your morning routine? Thanks

[@timothy42b]

Thanks for doing this. Just to comment on the mirror - it tells the truth, but only in a plane parallel to the angle of your stand. That's not really relevant to what you're doing, but if you're watching other motions it might be. A motion left or right will be correct, but forward and back can look different, if you're checking head position for example.

[@markeybone]

You’re absolutely right, that it can be difficult to tell motion that occurs on a different axis. The simple solution is to adjust your chair so you see yourself at an angle to provide a more complete picture of things. Thanks for bringing up that point!

What do I do once I’ve done week #4?
