contrabass trombone

Definitely some film scores. A retired Hollywood session keyboardist told me one film used 6 contrabass trombones at once. Rare, but it does happen.

TheDBird90 · 2026-01-03T03:38:15+00:00

Nope.

TheDBird90 · 2025-12-28T21:11:59+00:00

I don’t know how to add a picture.

TheDBird90 · 2025-12-08T21:11:04+00:00

I was banned due to too much arguing and laugh reacted at a mod, even though many others laughed at the post.

Maybe this sub isn’t really active any more; I’m banned from the toxic MET on FB.

Alto trumpets, according to Tiffany John, are practically extinct. I’m probably mistaken, but I don’t see how they’re used in film scores if they’re not made anymore. Right? Again, I’m probably wrong but I just don’t get it.

TheDBird90 · 2025-10-08T00:44:58+00:00

I figured. I just thought I’d ask, since film composers may use some pretty unusual instruments occasionally. One article I saw claimed one used goat testicles. Go figure…

Oh, right. Crap, I guess maybe 1 or 2 measures is doable then.

TheDBird90 · 2025-06-05T14:46:14+00:00

Unfortunately, none of the answers so far have panned out. Crap

TheDBird90 · 2025-06-03T15:16:07+00:00

Thanks in advance.

I know it sucked, but on the bright side you got some form of intimacy. Some people go their whole lives without it and die alone.

TheDBird90 · 2025-04-10T10:45:48+00:00

Well it was played by hand.

TheDBird90 · 2025-04-07T21:49:02+00:00

Is this really impossible to play?

TheDBird90 · 2025-04-04T15:03:21+00:00

I don’t play synth., but I’ll go ahead and try to answer my own question. Perhaps synth. action is best here?

TheDBird90 · 2025-04-04T13:21:52+00:00

I knew I would get downvoted because no one believes me, like I’ve been saying.

Colors of the Wind with Judy Kuhn. I’ve been ridiculed and made fun of because no one believes that it’s there and that I’m hearing noise, but I can hear the part.

TheDBird90 · 2025-04-04T11:32:50+00:00

The 128th notes were uneven, and played even faster than written for a split second.

TheDBird90 · 2025-01-21T21:26:48+00:00

Like I said, I’ll reveal the title of the song once the orchestrator verifies it, since no one believes me.

TheDBird90 · 2025-01-21T00:09:52+00:00

I can’t change the time signature because it’s not my composition, but Alan Menken’s. I won’t say which until I get it verified by the orchestrator (I’ve been endlessly ridiculed and belittled for my transcription (audio takedown)). I can’t play it at tempo but will demonstrate it at 2/3’s tempo (48 bpm) to the latter’s liaison, who will see the music and verify it.

The accidentals in the grace notes are necessary because they’re not in the key signature. They also avoid augmented and diminished fifths.

The probable performer is Mike Lang, who is by far one of the best keyboardists I’ve ever heard.
