You meant this in a humorous way, didn't you? I certainly wouldn't want to have to play c-e-c-e (in the staff) or f-a-f-a (bottom of staff) repeated 8th-note patterns this way on my euph. It hurts even thinking about it - especially so if the 8th notes were slow enough to require use of the "kicker" to get the c or f in tune.

They have been used on a tiny percentage of the horns shipped over the last 100 years. I think you can get something like this on the Besson Prestige today. In my case, the valve assembly I was using happened to have a very easy-moving tuning slide in a location that makes it easy to add a trigger mechanism for the right thumb. The cost of my modifications is the trigger assembly plus the cost of converting another soldered bow into a conventional tuning slide. Some production horns have used a more elaborate kicker assembly that allowed you to operate the trigger on the main tuning slide while still being able to set the "home location" of that slide. Once we get the trigger mechanism attached, I'll put up some pictures. Cheers, Craig At 02:00 PM 01/29/2002 -0600, Chris McClure wrote: Two questions: How would one try this out?

Yes, Bob Pallansch (and others) have rigged up simple and elegant lever-and-spring systems to pull or push that which required pulling or pushing.

Any work that is licensed through ASCAP or BMI could be broadcast, you just have to pay for the license through the appropriate organization, and I am not sure what that costs. Another option would be to play only works that have been submitted with broadcast permission by the owner (artist, record label, whatever). In the relatively small trombone world those permissions might not be terribly difficult to obtain. I'll let you broadcast my stuff.

I got this collection from a clarinetist in Chicago. Paul Desmond-isms: "I have won several prizes as the world's slowest alto player, as well as a special award in 1961 for quietness." "I was unfashionable before anyone knew who I was." "I tried practicing for a few weeks and ended up playing too fast." "I think I had it in the back of my mind that I wanted to sound like a dry martini." On the secret of his tone: "I honestly don't know! It has something to do with the fact that I play illegally." When asked by Gene Lees what accounted for the melancholy in his playing he replied, "Wellllll, the fact that I'm not playing better." He was an English major in college. His reason for not pursuing a literary career, "I could only write at the beach, and I kept getting sand in my typewriter." "Writing is like jazz. It can be learned, but it can't be taught." Of writer Jack Kerouac he said, "I hate the way he writes. I kind of love the way he lives, though." Of Vogue fashion models, he said, "Sometimes they go around with guys who are scuffling - for a while. But usually they end up marrying some cat with a factory. This is the way the world ends, not with a whim but a banker." "Sometimes I get the feeling that there are orgies going on all over New York City, and somebody says, `Let's call Desmond,' and somebody else says, 'Why bother? He's probably home reading the Encyclopedia Britannica." His response to the annoying banality of an interviewer, "You're beginning to sound like a cross between David Frost and David Susskind, and that is a cross I cannot bear." Shortly before the Dave Brubeck Quartet disbanded, "We're working as if it were going out of style - which of course it is." Of yogurt he said, "I don't like it, but Dave is always trying things like that. He's a nutritional masochist. He'll eat anything as long as he figures it's good for him." Of contact lenses: "Not for me. If I want to tune everybody out, I just take off my glasses and enjoy the haze." On Ornette Coleman's playing, "It's like living in a house where everything's painted red." Doug Ramsey wrote that Desmond on seeing Barbara Jones' oil painting of four cats stalking a mouse said, "Ah, he perfect album cover for when I record with the Modern Jazz Quartet." Ramsey pointed out that the mouse was mechanical and Desmond responded, "In that case, Cannonball will have to make the record." Desmond's fondness for scotch was well known. So in early 1976 when a physical examination showed lung cancer, he was ironically pleased that his liver was fine. "Pristine, perfect. One of the great livers of our time. ----__ListProc__NextPart____TROMBONE-L__digest_2285 Date: Wed, 30 Jan 2002 13:09:50 -0000 From: "Adrian Drover" To: "Trombones and related issues forum."
