Thanks for sharing!!! I’m a 71 year old retired bass trombonist (Louisville Orchestra 45 years) getting ready for a recital with Guilmant and Barat A&A. Your beautiful performances and advice are very helpful!
Dear Mr. wilson, thank you so much for this magnificent little little video. Great tips, not only for Morceau Symphonique, but for all pieces and studying in general! Bravo! 🙏🏽
Thank you very much! I am preparing this piece for college auditions and your performance is exactly the kind of style I’m going for! I appreciate the tips 👍
Hello Sir. I am a junior in a small high school preparing this piece for my local Solo and Ensemble examination 30 miles west, and I think your words of advice are amazing for what I am trying to do. Not only that, your dive into the history of this sort of work in France helped me grow a new perspective of what I am playing. Now I feel that when I play this work, I am at a downtown street in Paris in 1910 using art and music to converse with the people around me. It makes me question what emotion I feel, what does the music express of the setting? I will follow those words of advice and achieve this vision and question throughout my practices up until my performance in February. To stretch the unconventional notes and let the emotion breathe, and apply it to all parts of the piece. Thank you!
@@cobblestonemine923 The slow stuff is the type of work I LOVE playing on trombone. Especially when the trombone has a moving part on the higher register. Last year I played the entirety of the piece "Three Vocalises for Trombone" which even the more uptempo stuff was done in mezzo and in legato. It was a legendary experience and made me just want to do slower music for solos. Now comes Morceau Symphonique. I read this one in a selection and read the slow part being in Eb minor and having several higher notes. Then I read the allegro section, which I knew it had a main theme. I felt that was it. That is the piece I want to play. When I actually practice it for solo and ensemble, I will start to love it more than I do now.

Those are the pieces I’m preparing for my college audition! Do you have any tips?
This video is all excellent. Beyond that, I just quote the great Charlie Vernon, who said “suck air and sing!

Same here! Preparing this for all district. The beginning slow section is my absolute favorite because you can just put so much soul into it.

Excellent video. I appreciate the tips. I’m a comeback trombonist and in March will play this for the first time with an orchestra.
I love this piece! Just performed it this year in Liechtenstein
Great video! Just late for my regionals audition by half a year lol
