a little update: my teacher recommended also to start with the "courante" in the first suite. i'm currently working on it. Hard labour, but i enjoy every minute of it. The piece is beginning to get...
thanks for the input all!!
the Trombone link that Dave posted is much better in my opinion than what Misa Mead did to it. The breathing is noticeble but does not disturb the performance. I will take...
Thx, I'll keep the 2 and 5 in mind. Not sure which one he wants me to learn. Programming is not an option (yet)...I'll be happy enough to learn it.
Hi all,
my teacher thinks it could be doable for me to learn the cello suite n°1 by Bach.
I've been listening to the original this evening: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mGQLXRTl3Z0
I'm wild...
Thx for the input all, it's good to know that it is doable!
here is a try (and error..) of a recording. far from perfectly executed, i will have to practice a lot. Slurring is not always on the correct note, taking intervals is also hesitant but it's...
sounds very nice! and i like the finish of the instrument a lot! For that price, it looks like a real steal if the quality proves to be acceptable.
congrats on your purchase
the zinc "disappearing" from the brass alloy is caused by only one phenomenon: galvanic erosion. This can only occur when two metals (or alloys) of different galvanic worth are in contact with each...
to be honest: lack of dental care was not my problem. I had no fillings in any of my teeth. They just grew out of my gums and were all loose. Apparently something heritable, since my father and...
Breaking news (:p): my new teeth have arrived finally last week! After 10 months eating like a baby I finally am able again to eat and smile like a normal human being of my age!
Needless to say that...
Vito, since you live in Belgium: Adams prouds itself in repair: http://www.adams-music.com/repair/blaasinstrumenten/?lid=1043 I'd give them a mail or a phonecall.
hi, i stumbled upon this: http://www.2dehands.be/muziek/muziekinstrumenten/euphoniums/conn-1946-model-30i-double-267997566.html
looks rather well taken care of for its age.
i wonder what it's...
thx for the encouragement! It gives me hope that everything will be allright with a lot of time and practice.
a bit of an update on this matter. I have been practising with the practice adaptor for some time. First blows were a real shocker: with the device set for maximum pressure, i could not play a single...
The practice adaptor was delivered last week. The large bore fits perfectly. I've been trying it out, and was unpleasantly surprised how much pressure i naturally use to play. When I use pressure,...
what a wonderfull instrument! I hope it plays as well as it looks!! congrats with the purchase!
hmm, i'm not really considering to travel to the USA for this... In Belgium we have the general dentist, that's the one who referred me to the oral surgeon (here they are called stomatologist), he...
@ Dave: thx for the support and tips. indeed: implants are apparently not really an option since my cheeckbone has degenerated too far. I will order the device as soon as possible and post updates on...
hi all. Last visit to my dentist was a disaster. I need to have ALL of my teeth removed, and after 8 weeks i will get a prothese.
Needless to say that my playing the euphonium will be interrupted...
I would go for a used 3 valve to start with. If within your budget: buy it. Even if after 2-3 years the need (or desire) for a 3+1 and/or compensated horn occurs: you will have saved a lot of renting...
Great sound, i like this kind of recordings very much. you might want to check this out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w9LH5aExl-Q Jorijn is a dutch player, his website is on the link. if you ask...
congratulations, it's a wonderful instrument!!!
Proud to be belgian right now ☺☺☺
grts
ow, i always press down my valve before moving the slide, but i don't ever do that whilst playing, so it's not really an issue
woww, that's very special, if i ever come across one of these i certainly will consider it!
Thx a lot for sharing!
