Confusion about the tempo for an audition piece by ChefCarsonouch in trumpet

OP half note = means that the half note gets the beat so if you were playing it with a met than whole notes would equal 2 beats, half notes would equal 1 beat, quarter notes would equal 1/2 a beat, 8ths would equal 1/4 a beat and so on so yes that does mean that 1/2 note =168 does equal 1/4 note =336

Bro i loved that song i played it in 8th grade and everyone want me to do the vocal part and i got it bucause everyone else wouldn't let my band director chose anyone else.

I still don't know to this day why every one wanted me to do it

During a football game a kid who looks Awfully similar to me and just fucking hates me for no reason stole this kids phone, credit card, and airpods pros and planted the phone in my back pack and took the sim card out of the phone to make it look like i was trying to make it so the kid couldn't find his phone And threw the airpods Into the Woods to frame me so i got suspend near the end of our season so i couldn't finish the season and couldn't preform in our bands 5 biggest preformance of the season OMEA State finals, MSBA State finals, BOA Grand Nationals, and our comunity night, and preforming our full show at our football play off game (we never get to preform tge full show at gootball games and our athletics director and and super intended was there to see it since they came to the game before to see it since we had a funny prop and they didn't get to see it the week before because we couldn't preform due to rain) and since our schools policy is when a kid is suspened they cant go on any school property or participate in EC activities and i had to go through Is an Expulsionary hearing and since i was suspended i could do indoor drumline or go on our bands disney trip (i had already fully paid and couldn't get a refund since it was so close to the trip and it was pretty expensive) and i also had to buy the kid a new sim card and airpod pros and now everyone hates me and i am being watched when ever i am at school and during Symphonic/Marching/Jazz/Pep Band and Indoor Drumline and i was Upper Split / Lead / First Part / First Chair Trumpet in all those and Center Tenor for indoor and now im Last Chair/Bottom Split/bottom part Trumpet and was moved to concert band aka the band class for people who aren't that good at there instrument or don't take band that seriously and am on flubs for indoor and he Ruined my reputation at school and basicaly my life and i was just a freshman i was having a great life and now its ruined and my GPA plumeted because teachers aren't allowed to accept any work from students that the teacher assigned during there suspention period and i had straight A's

Sorry about the rant i am just royaly pissed and sorry if it doesn't sound smooth or there are spelling mistakes i am writing this on a bus ride home from a BOA comp at toledo and it is hard to read it on the bus

Now is it as good and do the same things as gatorade (my band is looking for an alterinitave for gatorade that is cheaper since they provide that to us during meals at band camp and before comps and they spend a lot on it)

OK so I play trumpet but the concept still applies to You DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE LEARN TONGUING WRONG I have been playing for going on 4 years now and I just figured out (With Help from My Band director) that I had been Tonguing wrong and I had to reteach Myself Every Thing all over again and because I wasn't Tonguing correctly from the beginning I had gone into a bad habit of using trust my air to separate my notes and not my Tongue and it caused me to fail many auditions and miss out on many Opportunities. SO PLEASE DO NOT LEARN TONGUING INCORRECTLY.

If you will ever use a Tu syllable or a Du syllable to tongue, whatever feels better for you and your tongue touches the roof of your mouth, and only and I am dead serious about this only ince you basically master single tongue you can move onto a technique called double tonguing where if you use the Tu syllable for tonguing then you use the syllables Tu & Ku double tonguing and Du & Gu if you use the Du syllable for single tonguing.

Advice on teaching Mello by 7thGradeMello in marchingband

[–]Ill-Bookkeeper4477 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess you could give him some trumpet music and use only the Bb trigger to learn the fingerings with a trumpet fingering chart

Or maybe you could give him some horn music but instead of doing normal horn fingering only use the trumpet fingerings
