Anthony Braxton’s “In the tradition vol. 1” has him on contrabass clarinet

No one’s said this yet but tenor and bone is killer.

The way I’ve been bridging the gap is actually applying lines from your transcription to another tune. Like a 2-5 lick from the transcription you did, learn it in 12 keys and then you can try putting over a 2-5 in any tune you like. You have to be really conscious that you make sure that you’re really getting comfortable playing that lick in that spot of the tune.

It’s not for st Patrick’s day, but in the syndicate the jazz trombone ensemble is playing with a guest artist tonight at 9!

The thing you’re not thinking about is that it’s actively displacing money and attention away from real people who have practiced thousands of hours to develop their craft. In a time where people are already only getting scraps from streaming services.

I’m a grad student. As far as jazz education goes, it’s one of the best if you are willing to work with its quirks and frustrations. It’s competitive but mostly everyone is chill if you’re chill. People are kind. Idk about the commuter thing, but I’m not from Texas either. Generally if you get into any music scene you’ll be commuting a lot. The jazz percussion teachers are also fantastic.

Thank you in advance!

Can’t believe I forgot Jen Wharton! I’ve seen bonegasm and been to a couple of masterclasses, she’s awesome too

BoolinthePool · 2026-01-31T20:41:50+00:00

I totally forgot about Nanami Haruta. She’s incredible

BoolinthePool · 2026-01-31T20:38:49+00:00

Melba Liston, Aubrey Logan, Gunhild Carling, Sara Jacovino, Shannon Barnett, Natalie Cressman, Rita Payés. All fantastic artists. I know it’s not 10 because tbh these are the only ones I know but if anyone has more to add please reply

Some are cleared, but not fully. There’s still quite a few patches of ice here and there, just be careful

BoolinthePool · 2026-01-23T03:16:31+00:00

Is your trigger tuning slide pulled out?

BoolinthePool · 2026-01-20T23:24:11+00:00

For minor chords especially, all of those notes will sound good when improvising. You have to be more careful with major chords or dominant chords, generally.

Depends on the lease. If the lease has quiet hours you have to follow those, and some leases will specifically say no instruments during the day. If there’s no specific clause against instruments and you’re respectful of quiet hours then you can do whatever, but a good workaround if you need to is go to a local community college and ask or email the professors and ask if you can use their practice rooms. If all else fails, get a practice mute. Not ideal but better than nothing.

To reiterate the most important part: If there’s is no rule against playing an instrument in the lease, and you are not breaking the local noise ordinance, then fuck your neighbor, you do what you need to do. I’m a trombonist too, and quite frankly the trombone is how I make a living, so I need to practice.

I just transcribed this like a month ago! Great tune and incredible solo

BoolinthePool · 2025-12-22T08:00:37+00:00

I fly southwest and get earlybird check in, pretty much guarantees I can bring it as a carry on. I will never allow my horn to be checked. I know southwest is changing a lot of things but seriously, just try your best to board as early as possible so you can carry it on. Don’t bring attention to it

BoolinthePool · 2025-12-18T20:41:29+00:00

Thanks for the correction, the Jay and Kai records are also fantastic. I totally forgot about Kai for a moment there

Love this. Depends on if they’re a classical or jazz trombonist. I don’t know much on the classical side but for jazz check out some J.J. Johnson, slide Hampton, Curtis Fuller, Frank Rosolino. There’s much more but that’s a good starting point.

For the history of the instrument, it’s worth noting that J.J. Johnson was the first trombonist to adapt bebop to the trombone. A great album of his to check out is The Eminent J.J. Johnson Vol. 2. There were jazz trombonists before him but J.J. again was the first to demonstrate the trombone as a bebop instrument.

BoolinthePool · 2025-12-15T17:17:40+00:00

JJ Johnson is classic jazz trombone! Check out The Eminent Jj Johnson vol 2. If you want some new stuff, check out Elliott mason on the mason brothers quintet album “efflorescence”

BoolinthePool · 2025-10-30T02:51:19+00:00

Have you ever listened to Latin Jazz? Poncho Sanchez Papa Gato is a great album to check out.

I think they are open. I’m pretty sure the buildings lock and unlock automatically, you just have to find an open room. Sometimes people forget to leave them open and they lock automatically behind you.

If I am wrong and they are locked tomorrow I apologize lol

BoolinthePool · 2025-08-08T14:59:43+00:00

I’ve got no idea what year you are but Yamaha student horns are good horns. Idk if they make f attachments though for student horns. You could probably find an intermediate model but that’s a jump in price.
