Thought you were playing the Jurasic Park Theme at the very beginning lol
Glad I'm not the only one
It’s called Vocalise
Its the Allora ATBB-450 Vienna Series Bass Trombone Lacquer Yellow Brass 🔔
@@pdqbachfan good ol’ rachmaninoff
Trent, being someone who can competently play both soprano and tenor brass, could you some time review the Wycliffe Gordon/Chasons Hybrid Trombone cup with trumpet shank mouthpiece?
If you could get someone to send me one, I'd be happy to review!
@@TrentHamilton I have one....you can't have it though lol ....my trumpet range on it is curtailed immensely.... but dang I have the best low range you'll ever hear.... I'm a trombonist trying to play trumpet.... even worse a Bass trombonist....that low E concert just cranks on the Chason. Which reminds me, I had planned to get the horn and flugel stems....
BTW Great video..... Dr Dave is a bit of a legend around these parts. I really should give his mouthpiece a try....given that I have the option of just dropping by the shop...I really should.
@@NeilABliss I've found I have some intonation issues with it, or maybe more that some notes don't really slot in very well and you can very easily be a quarter tone off on some notes if you're not careful. But then again, maybe it's just me.
I only play saxophone, but I still find other musician's opinions on gear for instruments I don't even play very interesting.
what sax?
@@EdenStoneReal sax is long metal tube that go doot doot
@@PilliamWilliam what kind of saxophone? sopranino, soprano, alto, tenor, baritone, bass, contrabass, subcontabass. i'm not an idiot
@@EdenStoneReal the kind that doot doot
@@EdenStoneReal Probably the subcontra doot doot maker since it's the most common one.
thank you trent for this new video giving a little bit more insight on the wedge, I am a young player who's been playing for a couple of years and has heard great things about the wedge. your videos are awesome and i love watching them. keep up the great work!
Nice playing! I love every time you say "Wedge"!
Trent! I thought you sounded beautiful! What was the cornet? What cornet mouthpiece was your wedge closest to? I enjoy your channel very much.
brass mouthpieces come on a spectrum. you have the mouth of euphomum at the far end and then the wedge cornet mouthpiece on the other far end
I have been playing on my trumpet wedge mouthpiece for about 6 months now. When I tried to go back to my old mouthpiece, my playing greatly suffered.
I think enjoyment in playing translates to enjoyment in listening. If the musician is struggling, labouring or disliking their experience then the listener may feel the performance is dry, routine and by the numbers. However if the musician is enjoying their recital then it feels more expressive and dynamic. To me it feels like the difference between playing because one has to, and playing because one wants to. This, to me, is why live performances on just about any analog instrument engage me. I can better appreciate the talent in others that I sorely lack in myself, when the performer is playing for desire instead of necessity.
I love vocalise!
I played a variation of that tune in the intro as a solo for my field show
a bit unrelated, but I thought I'd ask... all your instruments look nice and shiny. What lacquer polish would you recommend please? Thank you!
Again I have tuned in to hear him say the word “wedge”
'The idge of the widge '
nice sound man
Thank you Trent. I find it a trial and error process to get one's suitable mouthpiece. The difficulty is that you can hardly try a mouthpiece before you buy. Even if you can try it at the shop, it really takes times to know if the mouthpiece is an optimal one. So the result is getting many many mouthpiece at home but only using one or just a few. Any solution? Trent ? Anybody?
I hate to ask a question that you have already answered, as that would probably mean that I, a brass player, have non-functioning ears, but do you know exactly how old a wedge mouthpiece is? Neither me or my music teachers have heard of one, and I’m wondering if it’s a new thing.
Not completely sure but definitely at least the early 2010s.
We have been in business since 2007.
@@Wedgemouthpiece Oh thanks I never thought you’d be here
@@TrumpetGuy26 I subscribe to Trent’s channel. His stuff is brilliant.
I always get my mucking words fuddled up when I say Dennis Wick
If I was seeing your watch correctly...did you really record this at 2:08 AM?
No, 2:08pm :)
Finally a new video
There have been new videos nearly each week all year
@@TrentHamilton yeah but can’t never wait for you to upload
