    Spotify lists 1899 in the album metadata, not the song metadata. But the recording is clearly a higher fidelity than 1899.

    I think you're being to narrow here. Yes, that is the way a trombone gliss works. But an equally famous type of gliss is the harp gliss, where the hand is swept across the strings. This obviously...

    I'm considering trying one of these. Can anyone comment on how much it slows down getting into and out of playing position? Specifically, I'm a lefty, and would need to disengage to pencil a comment...
