The long ones with a single slide are pitched in F. The ones with double slides are pitched in Bb. However, they are incredibly unwieldy, so most people use F contras.
Oh my god I had another trombone playing video going in another tab and somehow matched the key and had held notes and sometimes did a couple faster ones while you guys were holding a chord, and it would fit! Then the other tab started talking and, well here I am writing this comment lol. Nice playing though, I'm a tuba player but just discovered the existence of contrabass trombone yesterday and I'm in love with it now and hope I can get one someday. I saw a video of one playing alongside a tuba, and the effect is awesome, they complement each other very well
@@AidanRitchie I'll bet it feels like you went on a good mountain run after you're done playing it! The 1st time I heard band I was in love with the sound. & I've never seen such a horn before. The sound is amazing! I might have to own one some day.
i dont need a contra i dont need a contra i dont need a contra
it's calling your name

The bass trombone in the background was only there to be humiliated and scared
Had to humble the bass somehow
I've never heard anything more Heavenly in my entire life
For a second there I thought the goal was to knock over the two towers of books...
There's a whole movie series about that
@@AidanRitchie that sounds awesome! What's it called?
@@andrewhaney1962 I believe it's called Lord of the Rings
You went from a passing train to a passing ship. Lol
Great sound! What are the three instruments being used here?
My Laetzsch, Wessex, and Brad Close copy of the 1909 Conn BBb
I've never seen a contrabass bone that had TWO SLIDES! like omg it sounds amazing!
Bbb tuning

Sounds like a twin-engine airplane!
When you realize that wasn’t the actual final boss:
At the first note , I thought the Undertaker was about to come out
10 person tuba ensemble, 9 tubas.. 1 imposter
Must have been fun to be playing with those two guys
It is and was!
I need a video about that dependent one
I will never have it haha. It's so hard to play

If a contrabass trombone has a double slide, does that automatically make it in the key of BBb?
Yes, or a rare CC.
So much honk
May I kindly know brand and model name of the contrabass trombone on the left, the silver-plated one? Thanks 😊
Custom BBb/F/D contrabass made by Brad Close
@@AidanRitchie thanks! 👍🏻❤️
Cool experiment... 🙂
Who are the other two players you were playing contrabass trombone with?
Ido Meshulam (studio guy, you probably know the name!) and Byron Sleugh (a name you will also know soon!)
Sound like the Halo reach theme
Me after eating beans:
Wow
Is that a BBb dependent double trigger contrabass
Yup!
