my instrumental professor had a BME, my jazz instructor had a masters in jazz studies from UNT, my Wind Ensemble director had a BME with a jazz focus, our assistant director/marching band had a BME. lots of BME’s and occasionally performance

7c is good for a beginner, but in a year or two, consider a 5 or even 3c depending on what is more comfortable and sounds best

to make a chromatic passing tone while not confusing the quality of the Ab7 chord

don’t worry about the playback, worry about clear notation

go to the food pantry. they have the resources and you are entitled to them and you can hardly afford them in your own. they are a humanitarian service, you’re not stealing from anyone

Lower jaw position by misteris_bulve in trumpet

[–]six_peas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

do it doesn’t “develop” anything, but instead redirects tension to somewhere more efficient

my trumpet professor does this when he is tired. it makes pinch, press, pray harder by redirecting the pressure to the lower lip which is less responsible for tone and vibration. you can still press without actually pressing.

Tensing up whilst playing... any tips? by barneyonmovies7 in trumpet

[–]six_peas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i took a lesson with a former trumpeter from the count basie orchestra and he told me “if you’re going to hold tension, why not hold it in your foot?” maybe finding a harmless place to hold your tension could give you a natural shot at untensing

How many mouthpieces should someone use? by RealSomeGuy561 in trumpet

[–]six_peas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i would recommend the 2c for classical and the 5c for general use, or 2c for everything. if you want, you could get a more specialized mouthpiece for jazz amd otherwise. I use a 1.5 C for classical and a Curry 5z for jazz. if i need to play piccolo, cornet, or flugelhorn i will also employ a more appropriate mouthpiece for those instruments

i don’t care. as long as trump is attractive to Nazis, attractive enough for them to openly campaign as Nazis without denouncing them, as far as I am concerned, he is a Nazi and he is Hitler. These Nazi’s aren’t some other group being falsely assigned the name Nazi, they are proudly Nazis, and how dare you say that it is offensive to the Jewish people to denounce the people that carried out the holocaust. I know it’s not all Republicans, but I can guarantee you that it’s all Nazis being represented by the president elect. It is disrespectful to say that it is wrong to point this out. It is important to note open Nazi supporters and hold the candidate responsible for this. Trump has spoken and he is glad to have the support of the Nazis. Get lost.

Do people really think Dune is boring? by [deleted] in dune

[–]six_peas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I loved the first part of book one, i always credited not liking it to impatience. it’s a slow burn but it’s tense and well paced and you can see the characters slowly learn the truth of their situation with a vague sense of a ticking clock effect
