Slide positions for B-flat tenor trombone concert pitch to middle C:

C (6th), D(4th), E(2nd), F(1st), G(4th), A(2nd), B(4th), middle C (3rd)

try horntabs.net.......or you can go on youtube look for zoot69 and she will have the music on there for you

It's a counterweight to the slide. The slide gets heavy, especially when extended into lower positions, so the balance puts extra weight on the opposite end of the instrument. It makes it easier to play by relieving pressure on the player's hands and arms.

Trumpet

He's a baritone.

yes. he is married 2 gigi Parker kashiwa

A euphonium is a low brass instrument. It can be base clef or treble clef. It looks like a small tuba but plays higher notes than the tuba. Most euphoniums have either 3 or 4 valves.

See the related link below for a picture and more information on the euphonium.

Sometimes music scores are non-transposed to make things easier for the composer and conductor.

This can be a matter of personal preference but normally the best brand of Euphonium is considered to be a Besson Euhonium. Other really good compensating brands are York, Willson, Sterling, and Yamaha.

It depends. Is she challenging you? If not, then just ask her out.

If she's challenging your position, just treat her like any other person. Win with humility. Lose with humility. Then you can ask her out later! ;)

The modern family of brass instruments can be broken into valved brass instruments (trumpet, horn, euphonium, tuba) and slide brass instruments (trombone). Brass instruments could also be broken up into Cylindrical bore (constant diameter tubing like the trumpet and trombone) and Conical bore (increasing diameter tubing like the horn, euphonium, and tuba).

Value is too difficult to be accurate without seeing the gun. Condition which includes the amount of original finish and original configuration will determine value. Recommend taking it to a gun shop for appraisal.

Any given length of tubing will produce a specific set of notes on what is called the "overtone series." By making the length longer or shorter, it changes the group of available notes.

If the tubing on a Bb tenor trombone were straightened out, it would meaure 108 inches (or 9 feet) from mouthpiece to bell.

ebay has some pretty crappy, horrible trombones up sometimes, also, try your local high school owned instruments, they're usually pretty horrible.

valves

In the same way as in any music - as directed by the score and the general tone of any improvising. In 12-bar trad. jazz the brass instruments usually share leads, but in rock and pop it often takes a more supporting or rhythmn role.

Yes. The harmonic series is the foundation of how brass instruments work.

No..that could possibly damage the horn.

It depends, what's their day job?

this is why i came here ( it is the basson tho)

The instrument Larry the Cucumber plays in the Veggie Tales theme song looks like a Sousaphone, a member of the tuba family that wraps around the body, resting on the shoulder, and is used primarily for marching. The most noticable difference between the Sousaphone that Larry plays and a real one is that Larry's Sousaphone does not have any valves. Also, real sousaphones are much larger than real cucumbers!

You put your lips together loosely and make a bzzzzzzzzz when you vibrate them. Or you have to just rest for a while or play low notes.

Each Instrument has its characteristic sound primarily, but not entirely, because of its sound "spectrum," the combinations of the pitches in its tone. When we listen to the sound of an instrument playing a sustained note, we hear one "pitch." But that note is acoustically "complex"; that is, it is a blend composed of a number of frequencies (pitches), each with its own intensity. When the combination of frequencies and their intensities varies, the quality of the instrument's tone changes, and we recognize a different instrument as the source of the note. Just as an artist can create varying shades of green by mixing varying yellows and blues, a pipe-organ (or an electronic device) can "create" -- imitate -- the sounds of other instruments by combining the various frequencies, each with its required intensity, to match the sound-spectrum of the instrument that is being imitated. Other elements determine to the characteristic tone of the various instruments, but sound-spectrum is the main one. For an advanced discussion of the issue, and of a great number of other issues in the science of the acoustics of music, go to http://www.phys.unsw.edu.au/jw/SiteMap.html#general At the page, click on "General Topics" and then on "What is a sound spectrum."
