So black, silver, and white respectively. They otherwise function identically?

From my experiences in community band
Crude ASCI bass clef staff. Single dashes denote ledger lines.
Notes are in concert Bb. (numbers are fingerings)

Community band got put on hold back in Mar. 2020 and hasn't resumed since. I've recently joined up a big band express group that's a subset of that (many folks from there) consisting of a few brass...
Nothing that hasn't already been covered. I don't travel often, but because a flute is quite compact, I take that with me. It doesn't really help the euphonium (except for the part about reading...
I've heard from the other euphonium player in my community band that as you approach older ages (60s, if not 50s), your lips will take a hit in performance. He was telling that to a trumpet player...
I'm taking my euphonium to a professional for cleaning and general maintenance. Last time I've done this was 3 years ago. When I went to pick it up, he blew into the instrument as part of a demo...
I have a non-compensating instrument. This is the first time I noticed that compensating ones have those extra slides! Go figure why they cost more. Especially relative to the extra materials...
I started a thread asking the community on how much and often we should be practicing..

Thanks for all the infos!
I am NOT a professional musician, so I can afford to be more lax about practice. That said, I did invest in an instrument, and it has been a fun hobby for me (especially...
On follow up, is 10 minutes a day worth bothering with (still better than nothing I'm sure), or should I just cut my losses? Is there some minimum length for a practice session (with or without...
Building up endurance aside, would there be significant differences between practicing 10 minutes a day, vs. 45 minutes spread out over the same time period?
I'm also guessing that a "rule of...
Time that was earmarked for vacations, or doing stuff out of town or into the evening has been cancelled, so I've been free to practice nearly every day of the week. However, due to usual...
Community band went from "just in case we won't have anymore rehearsals" to "no class in session until further notice", all in a 1 week span in March.
AFAIK, if instruments didn't involve blowing...
If playing in a school ensemble (e.g. high school, college, community bands, concert, marching), they'll often have parts in both T.C and B.C. Parts may be limited, but usually not an issue since 1)...
Last semester, the lead euphonium player brought up that he's going to be in surgery. That and the recovery time will mean he'll be sitting out for the whole, next semester. He'd like to give me...
For those unaware, InvisAlign is a brand of clear aligners used by dentists/orthodontists used to adjust teeth. I have yet to consult with my dentist about this (that's for an upcoming appointment)....
This was recommended as being able to get the job done, in lieu of not having the trombone slide cream I currently use ("The Original Superslick Professional Trombone Cream") and am running low on...
I have a used Yamaha YEP-321. A 2nd person got it cleaned via acid bath, and got all slides working again.
There's a semi-high pitch rattling noise that occurs when I play a mid-C (open, 232 Hz),...
I was told that a Yamaha YEP-321 was a good "mid-model" that's good for intermediate players. 4-valve was desired, but I didn't want to spend the extra for a compensating instrument. It seems to be...
They're out of springs for euphonium :(
I'll see if there are other shops that deliver
I've noticed that when I stand the springs straight up, it seems to tilt slightly. I suspect it may cause the valve itself to grind on the sides of the casing (inside). Even if it's slight, it may...
I believe you're referring to this?...

Hi
YMMV. However, given your later post (#3) mentions he's able to physical use them, and actually uses them for its intended purposes, it sounds like a 4th valve would do him some good....
Nothing "scientific".. but during the following rehearsal, it did sound better. Don't know if it was all in my head (having the boost and confidence of an instrument as if it were "brand new"), or...
I played this during a high school field trip to Germany. The German band we played with certainly knew their stuff. It's supposed to be an embarrassment in college football when the other marching...
