    • @michaelliu9944
      @michaelliu9944 7 років тому +14

      Actually, the intonation of brass is not mostly about the instrument but the people play it. In other words, we control the intonation of the instruments but the instruments control us. However, a terrible instrument may influent the intonation in general.

      @@edwardweaver1467 Well that's a pretty new "rule" that emerged in the modern classical music concert hall. People certainly clapped in between movements and even while the musicians are playing during Mozart's day. It does provide a more intimate and uninterrupted musical experience, but also massively cuts back audience participation. Honestly it's a little bit snobbish (at least for certain music).

    how come that three (or four?) valves are sufficient for a good intonation, when other tubas need half a dozen?

    • @johannbach3253
      @johannbach3253 4 роки тому +1

      Assuming his right pinky is pressing a valve, that would be a total of 5 since his right thumb is definitely pulling a trigger, operating an additional valve (I don't mean any disrespect at all in my response, for all I know, you know way more about this than me). Hans is also an amazing tubist and I know for a fact there's not way I could top any of his performances. Have a good day :)
