Subject: Face Time Message-ID: <000701c1a5dc$52b6e2b0$c15a4d0c@trbnplyr> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Dear Listers, This might seem like a strange topic, but when I get into what I mean by "face time", I'm sure that most of you teachers out there will concur with what I'm about to say. On Wednesday I was teaching one of my students, and this was the first notes of the day that he had played. So I got out my Arbans book and turned over to exercise #9, and I hade him play the first line for me. Then I had him go to the last line of the exercise and play it down an octave, which really is the first line down 1/2 step. I had him play that line several times, getting him to really listen to the sound of every note, in order for all of them to be the same in terms of quality. After about 10 minutes of this, we then looked at his All-State tryout music, which consists of Rochut #3, 1st half, and one of the Terrell studies. He wasn't sounding very good, and he was getting rather pissed at himself because he had taken a week off of these pieces, but I said that I really didn't think that taking a week off these things was the root of his problem. This student is a very hard working student generally speaking. Many of the listers out there are going to be auditioning for special groups and/or jobs. I can't emphasize enough the importance of really getting a beautiful sound, and in order to do that, it requires a certain amount of time on the horn just making sure that the air and embouchure are working together optimally, as well as putting the slide in the right place. That's what I mean by FACE TIME. It is imperative you spend a certain amount of time each day working on the fundamentals. I can assure anyone of this: if you're having trouble playing half notes in #9 of the Arbans book with a beautiful sound, then you're in trouble. If you don't like that exercise, you can choose anything you want out of Schlossberg, Remington, or any of the other routines, but if you work on your audition material at the expense of neglecting your fundamentals each day, rest assured that the day will come, and probably very soon, where nothing you do will sound good, and you'll have to go back and regroup by re-introducing yourself to fundamentals. I really don't think it's about "warming up" per se. It's about spending time each day doing basic things--long tones, simple slurs, and not just playing them, but really working on making every note sound great. The success of the rest of your practice time that really depends on what you concentrate on the first 15-30 minutes. I read somewhere in an interview with Charlie Vernon that he had certain things that he liked to do every day before going to rehearsals, or practicing anything else. He said that one day, he decided to put a clock on what he did, just to see how long it took. I believe he said that it took 28-30 minutes to complete everything that liked to do. Then he asked himself this question: is it worth 28 minutes a day doing these things in order to sound great? He concurred that it was. Now remember: Charlie spends a lot of time on the horn every day, and he's always pretty much "in shape". If it's good enough for Charlie Vernon, then it should be good enough for any of us. Again, I don't think it's so much WHAT we do, but HOW we do it, but the important thing is to DO IT. Regards, Paul D.

I agree with that, but I am also not a person who likes to spend a bunch of time on very basic etudes. If playing Rochut half notes is the only way for a person to concentrate on the fundamentals then go for it. But I don't believe it should be an either/or thing. I don't believe it takes an extreme amount of discipline to pay attention to the fundamentals that are used in every single piece of music we play. Granted, if a person is playing nothing but pep band or loud concert band where you can't hear yourself think, you probably aren't doing a lot of good for the fundamentals during those rehearsals. But in more controlled settings like brass quintet or some of the symphonic stuff there is good opportunity to really concentrate on the fundamentals. Just my opinion.

It has no lacquer and a few dents which I will take out and make it look as good as possible before shipment. I wanted to see if anybody wanted it before I spend the time fixing it up. I don't expect to get a huge sum for this thing. If you have an interest, send me a message, off list, with some idea of what you'd be willing to pay. Make me an offer. While I'm at it, I have some parts for a Reynolds bass trombone to clear out: one bell, one tuning slide, two rebuildable slide sections, various valve section parts from two double valve sections, other miscellaneous parts, one so-so case. Basically, I'm parting this thing out because I don't have the rotors to put it back together. Contact me off list if you need Reynolds parts. Eric Swanson Dallas/Ft.

I was asked to come down and look at some old instruments that Carroll Music...a rehearsal hall and instrument rental company that has been very active in NYC for at least 50 years...is selling in an effort to clear out their storage rooms. Thought maybe someone might be interested. If so, email me and I'll hook you up. (I'm not involved in the sale...just a favor for some people I've worked with for years.) They have a LOT of horns. The good ones are: 1- A NY (PRE-Mt. Vernon !!!) Bach bass trumpet. I really have no idea HOW a bass trumpet is SUPPOSED to sound, but when I tried it, it worked well. Good condition. Probably THE bass trumpet for most orchestral work, and quite rare to find an old original Bach in such good shape. 2-A Conn 60 H bass trombone...late '40s early '50s, I believe. Needs some work, but eminently salvageable. Great sound, even in B minus condition. 3-A BEAUTIFUL old silver plated King Valve trombone, in great shape. Probably late '20s/early '30s, the perfect Juan Tizol horn. I have a great old Conn I use for the same purpose, or I'd buy it immediately myself. 4-Several old sousaphones in fair to good shape...a '20s or '30s King, a couple of others. Nice horns for a good school marching program. I think these horns can be had for good prices. Check them out if you're interested. Later...

I remember that horn, I used it when the orchestra at Manhattan School did the Rites of Spring. It's actually a C Bass with Bb slides, if I'm recalling it correctly, and it had the extra set of slides in a special compartment in the case. If you're in the market for a bass trumpet, this is probably one of the sweetest, easy to play ones out there!
