A Musical Thank-You

Post by Mv2541 »

This one is a thank you to NeoBrian for selling me his really incredible Bach 36 (that I have a feeling he did not want to part with). That, and I realized probably nobody here has ever heard me play (and I am kinda nervous even posting this). I have never really felt really comfortable on small horns, and ditto for large horns; this is definitely the closest I have ever come to the sound in my head, and it is only day one on the setup.

I recorded this today between some virtual meetings, and you'll have to excuse some intonation issues because these partials (especially 3/6/7/8) are WAY different than I'm used to and I really gotta learn this horn. Anyway, here is the ballad from Mike Davis' Total Trombone done in one take with no editing or mastering- just trombone into mic. (Maybe there are some in the collective that know more about how I can learn to mix/master?) Peace and love-

Really nice. I think I've played that horn and yes it's great.

Very nice, Michael. :good:

Is that the Bach 36BO listed in your stable?

Thank you both very kindly! It is the 36BO in my profile- just a standard (90's?) 36BO with the Monette.

Beautiful sound! I hadn't heard of Mike Davis' Total Trombone but it looks like a fun resource. I just ordered it so thanks for the heads-up on that.

Much appreciated! I'll just assume he has my check in the mail.
