IDK, I never really got into Brahms music. it always felt like it was missing something. I'm guessing this is nan excerpt form a larger symphonic work? does a rotary trumpet require a larger mouthpiece? I want a rotary piccolo so bad haha. you deserve so many more views Steve. I'm not sure I understand RUclips's Algorithms, there are so many trumpet players out there, who could benefit from these teachings. You are an amazing player and teacher, and giving us these videos are a huge benefit to the trumpet community, inmho. I hope you can gain more viewership in the near future. regarding tuning. I am lucky that, although I don't have perfect pitch, my relative pitch seems to be impeccable especially when singing. (lol not trying to brag ..really!) so I do not believe in perfect pitch i.e. is the "perfect pitch" tuned to A= 440 or A= 432, or A =441 etc? and is the perfect pitch using 'Just intonation' or 'Pythagorean intonation'? also if perfect pitch does exist in all tunings, I believe that would not help playing with other instruments, due to the small tuning changes that are required to play in tune with each other, unless each player had the same 'perfect pitch'. My way of tuning (and I'm sure yours as well) is that I actually "sense" there is a "slot" the notes go into. Even a couple cents is highly noticeable for me, in any tuning. I think this is why I did so well on cello, and being able to play with other instruments, like piano. I am saying this because in one of your comment responses to me, you mentioned not trying to think about things too much and let the body respond naturally to our playing. Thus we can trust our bodies will know what to do. that being said it can be hard to hear our sound at times because the horn is always pointing away from us.
Hi Canadian 🌝. Thanks as always for your comments. I find them interesting and they are appreciated. However, I just spent half an hour trying to respond to you by replying through the "reply" function on my channel and lost everything I wrote. I will greatly appreciate it in the future that if you want to converse, that will contact me through my website submission form, That way I will have your email and you can even introduce yourself by name. You might even give me a little background about yourself. I am actually interested in people 😉 and am happy to answer questions but I have limited time and energy and find this method of attempting to communicating very unsuitable. BTW, it sounds like your sense of pitch is better than mine so sorry for all the out of tune content I post 😳
@@stevenemerytrumpet4095 yea, I hate it when that happens! ugh. sure thing Ill send you an email, since I was going to explore possibly doing a lesson anyway. best/Doug.
