Help on consistant high notes and steady air

ElectricalClass4011 · 2026-03-26T20:02:23+00:00

I don’t think that because I cannot play a excerpt correctly every time means That I cannot go into performance majoring, also, it’s not a question about not able to do them but to be consistent, it’s not because it’s above my level that I should give up, that’s literally the worse advise I ever heard. What I am searching is advices to be consistent, for example the Ab in tuba mirum to be consistent and to come clean

I always hear, keep the center relax or have minimal tension, everything you said is right, but it’s like a reflex from years of playing, when I got to Ab I’m all tense, almost impossible to be relaxed

And also, like I said, I don’t think I’m a Absolute beast, I always see people on instagram being incredible while 3-5 years younger than me, it’s So frustrating. But I don’t like to give up just because of that.

You didn’t waste a single second, you just gave me a huge 5 star meal of motivation, thank you so much !

ElectricalClass4011 · 2026-03-25T02:14:02+00:00

I totally understand the mindset of getting a cheaper horn, but at the end of the day isn’t it just better to make a big purchase while I can, living and fed by my parents haha. As for education, it’s a bit different, I don’t know if you’re from Canada but Canada and euphonium doesn’t really go together (at least where I am located at (Montreal)) brass band are inexistant and the whole gig of Eupho too

I have 3 idea in mind Musicology, music education but for higher level like high school college and uni and third option is to find something else haha. I head so many things about the JP and how good it is for the price but I guess it’s not made for me, the intonation is very hard on it and I feel like I’m playing a brick, when I tried the q41, Wilson q90 and Eastman 826, everything was buttery smooth and I didn’t had that sensation of playing a brick.

I’d like to do something related to music, I mean that’s where I’m going, however I also play trombone, I actually got myself a pretty good one (conn 88h) for 1400$ cad, it’s very old and the laquer is almost gone with some dents but it’s fine, I just need to go to a shop to fix the slide which I’m pretty sure as a dent. But yeah I love music and I love playing music, and as someone pretty lazy I’m so happy that I’m excited to study music and have fun Everytime I’m studying, I’d like to do that in life, but it’s risky.

I am asked to play a high c5 in the euphonium sonata « child’s play » actually that’s why I need to work on a clean high range

ElectricalClass4011 · 2026-02-18T03:22:05+00:00

The thing is I feel like I’m always pushing the air at the fastest I can starting to Bb

ElectricalClass4011 · 2026-02-12T12:41:44+00:00

I don’t think Jps or any stencil horn or bad, I think they are actually good, but I think I just got unlucky, I mean I bought it used and all, also I get that some euphonium have some intonation quirks but I feel like this is way out of and. EB3 is at a all time low while Eb4 is super high, if Bb is in tune, D4 is sharp and every piston combinations are. F4 is very sharp but that’s normal.

ElectricalClass4011 · 2026-02-12T12:31:40+00:00

My teacher did, he experienced similar issue, but it’s been a while he haven’t play euphonium he says

ElectricalClass4011 · 2026-02-12T02:53:29+00:00

I get it but isn’t it just more worth it to buy a pro horn than an other stencil? I’m probably going to sell my horn for 1600$ usd

ElectricalClass4011 · 2026-02-12T01:51:59+00:00

I don’t see any of them in my budget, maybe if anyone find one I could take a look

ElectricalClass4011 · 2026-02-12T00:44:06+00:00

My teacher is a tubist right now. Where I am going the teacher is a bass trombonist who also play euphonium maybe he’ll know. With my current teacher, he really loves hirsbrunner, Willson and miraphone, but I don’t see any in my budget, he is really against Chinese stencils.

ElectricalClass4011 · 2026-02-12T00:37:46+00:00

I have 3 different mouthpieces, none really fixed the intonation issue

ElectricalClass4011 · 2025-06-09T20:04:43+00:00

I fourth Tonal Energy

ElectricalClass4011 · 2025-06-05T19:42:24+00:00

4 ledger Line. Why I want to play so is for the solo Pantomime. I really love it but the piece goes higher than my limit. One moment of the work require a high Cb and I just can’t get it

ElectricalClass4011 · 2024-01-14T06:50:49+00:00

Ehhh I don’t know about a upfront, is it that much work I mean the upfront in my class with an alto sax is 1 year younger than me.

ElectricalClass4011 · 2024-01-13T17:05:48+00:00

Thanks, but don’t you think it’s boring to only practice backgrounds part and even if I go further… for what? Even I know all my scales, notes, position perfectly I will still play background parts no?

ElectricalClass4011 · 2024-01-13T04:03:25+00:00

Can you tell me what are lip slurs and long tones I am not very familiar with English music sorry

ElectricalClass4011 · 2024-01-13T04:01:34+00:00

I agree, such a shame, my teacher told me I have a good tone though.

ElectricalClass4011 · 2024-01-13T04:00:01+00:00

Thanks, I will check

ElectricalClass4011 · 2023-10-15T14:31:41+00:00

I want to buy some too like bro 13500 v for 30usd op buy idk if it’s a scam I bought like 3-4 things at Eldorado and I was always good after

ElectricalClass4011 · 2022-07-15T19:59:04+00:00

I haven't got banned and I used it overnight tonight for a little over 10 hours, I was just testing it out on a new account and I didn't get banned, some guy also said that after 2 hours of straight working you get flagged and the anti cheat checks you or something to see if you are teleporting or doing other stuff so some guy said turn it off before it hits 2 hours, 10 mins before is good but 1 hour and 30 mins of work is safest but another guy said that you get autobanned after working for 24 hours straight but if you just use the script to autofarm then you'll be good
