  Thanks for doing this. Just to comment on the mirror - it tells the truth, but only in a plane parallel to the angle of your stand. That's not really relevant to what you're doing, but if you're watching other motions it might be. A motion left or right will be correct, but forward and back can look different, if you're checking head position for example.

• 
  @markeybone21 күн бұрын

  You’re absolutely right, that it can be difficult to tell motion that occurs on a different axis. The simple solution is to adjust your chair so you see yourself at an angle to provide a more complete picture of things. Thanks for bringing up that point!

  Any tips for air leaking through your corner when getting the really low valve pitches? I'm happy with the sound but would like my embouchure to be more efficient. 😅😅

• 
  @markeyboneАй бұрын

  That’s a great question - and it’s one that really is very individual to the player. If you’re happy with your sound, you are probably at least 90% of the way there, and depending on how much air leakage there is, there might not be much to do about it

  @bjrnmikkelsen3790Ай бұрын

  For normal playing, do you use the 2nd valve for the E’s and B’s more than than the first valve? Is it a preference thing or is 2nd usually better for those tones?

• 
  @markeyboneАй бұрын

  Great question! I tend to use the Gb valve for E’s and B’s more; honestly, it’s just a personal preference - both work!

• 
  @bjrnmikkelsen3790Ай бұрын

  Really great practise tips! Why do you alternate between breathing through the nose and the mouth?

• 
  @markeyboneАй бұрын

  Thank you! And for your question, the answer is all about consistency. When we breathe through our nose, we keep our corners together and lips intact with the mouthpiece, making it easier to keep the sound. When we breathe through our mouth, whether corners or some other way, the change can cause us to get a bit lost with the feeling of when everything is working. Alternating back and forth allows us to more easily find our way back from breathing through our mouth.

  Hi，Jim. I noticed that my embroucher didn't chaneged when I played low B flat to F. But it seems the direction of my air flow chaneged naturally. Is that ok? thx.

• 
  @markeyboneАй бұрын

  Hi v.s9125 - what you’re describing is pretty normal. It’s my believe that the air flow will almost certainly change between those notes, so consider that to be normal. And in the words of Duke Ellington, “if it sounds good, it is good!”

  Amazing exercise! As a new teacher to the scene and aspiring trombonist this video was exactly what I needed. Thanks so much! I have to ask though, what's the approach for going high? I've been a lead bone player for a few years now but I still feel like my tone is constricted and forced once I get past Ab4 or so. If you have a good method or know someone who does, let me know! Thanks again!

  I'm trying to figure out all the pushing and pulling of the tuning slides. Im a good amature but never felt a need to do a lot of that. Is this due to irregularities of your horn so certain valves in certain octaves have problems? My ear isn't that good but by using a tuning app on iPhone tells me there is a problem fine. I always felt I could lip-it if needed. I play Miraphone 5-valve and 4-valve tubas. I'll check back for a response - if you have time. Thanks.

  I think Mike takes care of the slides to make sure the pitch is exactly where he needs it to be. I’m not sure exactly where those changes are for the tuba, but maybe playing in slow motion will help

  Just curious- are you tonguing the slurs (like Bb to D), or doing a cross-grain/natural slur? Thanks for doing these, BTW. I find myself being asked to play more bass trombone lately, these are helping a lot. I’m having fun working through the videos.

•

  I’m natural slurring-no tongue. But honestly, I don’t think it makes a great deal of difference if you happen to legato tongue the slurs.

I know it will pay dividends on the other instruments.

  Ah, great question-and I was asked this elsewhere! The idea is each video is every day for one week, then week 2, then week 3, etc. For any individual, you might want to spend more than one week on a video, but they are consecutive rather than concurrent!

  Does nose breathing help us not move as much? Is this the idea behind alternating corners and nose breaths?

• 
  @markeyboneАй бұрын

  That’s the idea-to observe what you do without any change in your corners. It doesn’t mean that there is no movement at all, but by breathing through your nose, you can see if there’s any obvious change, which is different from a more fluid one.
