Kid you've got it. Folks will enjoy hearing you for years. I recognize that holding the horn down allows you to keep your hands ergonomic, but look up and present to the audience. You're a big tall man. Stand tall. Be the show.

[@pauldance7387]

Man you can play .... I suspects you’re traveling the globe by now .....you got a mega dose of talent ...🎤🙃👍

[@ckimpal]

Great Tone. Good luck at Julliard. Always nice to see someone keeping the classics alive.

[@HM55-77]

This dude been good for a while

[@mandelharvey3429]

I'm 47 been playing since the 7th grade and I'm taking notes. You're doing some nice stuff kid. Crazy to consider that when you're 47 believe it or not you'll hear a kid that makes you feel old too. I hope you do anyway. Inspire.

[@TheNoobyGuy1]

Wow you are a great player! Are you doodle tonguing, or single tonguing?

[@TheTechnoKnights]

Simeon Davis Wait is there a such thing as doodle tongueing or did you just mean double tonguing? Doodle tonguing does actually sound like a type of tonguing

[@TheNoobyGuy1]

TechnoKnightsCraft Haha yes there is a technique known as doodle tonguing. For the purpose of the trombone, it is quite useful for playing smooth, legato lines in jazz quickly. It can also be used for slow tempos as well.

[@TheTechnoKnights]

Simeon Davis Okay, thanks for the info

[@bonefact06]

+Simeon Davis See Bob McChesney... he wrote entire book on it.

[@msh0041zz]
