Playing this piece for Juries! Thank you so much you play this sooo well and do soooo many great things. Had to look up the song for how the piano fits in with my part and of course this video pops up because this is amazing!!
I have been replaying your performance so much lately that I just bought the sheet music. Thank you for inspiration; I hope my 4/4 can reach the bar you set.
Curious about your recording gear/setup and placement, sounds really nice! Always have a hard time with blowing out my (cheap) USB mic, and lowering the gain just makes it sound "empty". Any post-processing (bass EQ / low pass filters) ?
Thanks! I placed the microphone within a foot of my bell. It is usually at bell height, pointing at the edge, on the far side of the valves. This gives me a nice warm sound and helps to isolate from the very dry studio. This way, I can add reverb to that dry, but clear, recording.
I would recommend playing the part at 60 bpm, then 62, 64, and so on until you reach the written tempo. It might seem tedious, but if you have the time, the repetition helps a ton.
The “technique” is to make it perfect at the slowest tempo necessary. If the fastest you can play it is at 40bpm, then start there. Play it at that tempo until you can get it 5 times in a row perfectly, then try it at 42bpm. Once you can get it 5 times in a row perfectly at 42, then try it at 44bpm. Rinse and repeat 😆
Big tuba solos are cool.
Thank you my friend!! 🙏🏼
Played this in High School and your video brought back so many practices room memories.Excellent performance

Everytime I listen to this, I’m blown away, Mr. Sutherland!

I'm planning on playing this for my upcoming recital! I love how you played tuba and piano simultaneously! Good work! 😊❤

Does anyone have any tips on how to play 5:27 - 5:37 just can’t get it down

@@thebagelsandwich5501 how would you say for me to play it what technique do I use
