Wow...excellent! For years, I guess I was playing this much too slowly...I interpreted the adagio more literally. You have a fabulous sound, and it is such a pleasure to hear you play these studies. Watching these videos, I feel like I am taking a masterclass in trombone performance! Thanks for doing these videos!

You're right, the tempo marking would require a much slower metronome: I decided to go for a different interpretation just with the purpose of achieving a longer phrase without the need to breathe. Besides that, such tempo pushes the challenge of maintaining the same articulation through the entire exercise while going up and down with register and dynamics... So basically I transformed the exercise to meet my further needs. The original tempo is still a valid choice!
@@GabrieleMarchetti Thanks for your reply! I kind of suspected the faster tempo was your interpretation, as opposed to taking the adagio marking literally. My issue is that I just don't have as much air as I used to...I'm 72. I can almost make the longer phrases at your faster tempo, but then I start to sacrifice clarity and accuracy. I would love to hear you play #16 in Kopprasch book 1! Thanks again for giving all of us these "masterclasses"; especially during this time when some of us, myself included, wish we could be having some face to face lessons with a teacher but for obvious reasons cannot!

Gabriele...maybe you can clarify...tempo marking for this etude is adagio...you are clearly playing it much faster. Any reason? Thanks.
