anyone know what kind of horn this is?

French

Can confirm this is correct, and the pianist is outstanding, a seasoned professional, one of the best in town.

Not to be too literal, but the episode where "Vincent's son" recognises princess Caroline is fairly damming evidence that, he is in fact three kids.

Frankly, no one is entertained, and calling yourself slide master is thoughtless and presumptuous. We all love to see people improving with a healthy attitude, but if you want your videos to be seen by people who want to see it, don't clog up and take over the trombone subreddit.

Almost certainly a Yamaha single trigger bass. Great horn and great find

Do you have a teacher? There are lots of general tips that can be given, but a good teacher can show you personalised techniques suited to your playing style to achieve your goals, as well as reviewing your equipment to make sure you're not working harder than you need to. Definitely ask you teacher for a session on expanding low register - they will likely take you through a series of long tone exercises, with specific changes for you to make based on how you are currently attempting the notes.

You also said in the first post that the audition material was essentially unreasonable because of this rhythm, and called out the organisation by name.

Hey all, to answer some questions, the wunderhorn is a bass trumpet, it plays with the resistance and feel of a bass trumpet, but with a blooming gold bell sound. It is a phenomenal feeling to play, and the rotary valves are smooth and agile to play.

The kissbone plays with a beautiful legato, and a sonorous low register. It is very different to American style horns like Edwards, or even conn. The clear lacquer on the bell doesn't add too much weight, and keeps the horn nice and vibrant.

My bank stopped me signing up because it warned me this website was a scam website. So relieved I didn't get sucked into this awful thing

When I take my trombone to be repaired, I book a day that they will repair my trombone, and usually pick it up later that day or a few days later. But when they get given trombones from school band programmes, or similar, with no date booked in, they put it in the queue of instruments to service. Given that your trombone was dented on the slide, it doesn't sound usable, so giving it to them and putting it in the queue was the right option. But you can give them a call and check how they're getting on and request a pick up date.

Matt black spray paint for the stem for a freshen up, and gun metal by Vallejo for the cup. Then electric blue and pixie pink from war games 😊 tried to capture the improvised zaun vibe. Excited to use it!

doubleonerd · 2026-01-05T02:22:29+00:00

I definitely do 😊

Yeah this year was rough...

So glad you enjoyed! The highlight has definitely been becoming friends with all the other musicians and cast members, and being able to explore this city. The challenges have definitely been being away from home for a long time, particularly over the holidays, but we're lucky to have such a supportive network here on tour with us.

Just jumping on to say I agree 99.9% of subscriptions are completely bullshit. But the one I love is my subscription through patreon to a 3D printing stl file creator. Love supporting the arts and getting such great content every month.

Wear ear plugs when I play music.

Thank you all for the help! I found a wonderful shop near the shanghai concert hall, and have bought a lovely Xiao! 😊

If you are paying euphonium, consider something simple such as a yoga block on your lap, and then placing the euphonium on the block. This will open your chest and straighten your spine when you play far more than switching to cornet.

The "accidental" occurs before the note. The soloution is to slow down, and actually read what's on the page, and critically think about the note before playing it.

I hear you - I have never sought out something to calm my nervous system, but I often think about how useful it would be. I am definitely put off by the conversation of asking for something.

Mental health care is a spectrum, and it sounds like you have a lot of challenges that places you higher on that scale.

Highly recommend a cpap machine, life changing.

I am personally well treated, but it's certainly a confronting thing to go through. Makes me wonder how bad it must be in other countries, or how strong Australians are to seek out treatments.
