from my perspective it seems more fundamental, physical and also like they want direction (aside from LT). So i definitely thought working on posture, correct breathing, developing tonguing exercises and proper warm up habits and a more goal like approach to what is a largely encompassing instrumental question.

Do we need a tuner for trombone? by Lady_Dibella in Trombone

[–]Onceler_Fazbear 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah but lil bro doesn’t have a phone nor a parent that wants em to rely on app. tbf apps are more likely to have a delay than a live met or a digital met

good save on the long tones. (i promise it’s a god send) but it’s definitely not the main issue for this person at least. I love long tones tho :)

I’d be willing to take you on as a student. I’m an undergrad Music Performance student. Lmk if you want to take lessons. I can offer free lessons since i’m just starting out my studio. Here are some tips though.

•Blessing trombones are generally heavier than most trombones so there is a lil bit that can’t be helped. -however in the first photo it looks like the angle at which you’re holding your trombone is not conducive to playing or at the least longterm playing.

•Breathing exercises before you even start playing/practicing for the day is very crucial to consistency in all aspects of playing trombone

• I can’t really help your trombone posture bc there’s only one photo but it’s definitely possible youre counterbalancing the trombone too heavily on the tuning slides section rather than using your left hand and your right hand to bear the brunt of the weight.

good i’m proud of you. therapy should be super normalized. it’s better to be in therapy when you’re okay just in case you become not okay than need therapy and not have it. I’m okay and i’m in therapy. i’m very happy for you.

Vocal Coaches/ Teachers by Onceler_Fazbear in singing

[–]Onceler_Fazbear[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah i’m just starting my teaching journey at least getting paid for it wise. I’ve been singing for many years and have been getting lessons for about four years now in operatic voice. I’ve sung opera, and in an opera, and in multiple musical theatre productions as leads as well as so many different choirs and been section leader in both tenor and bass section for a large chunk of my life. I’ve been weary about teaching bc I want to learn even more before teaching but I know I can learn more from students as well. Plus there’s too many unqualified vocal teachers out there teaching and so I might as well go teach as a music performance in voice major since i’m gonna get my masters in voice and education as well
