    Hi Mr. Dunn. This is Kathleen, Vanessa Fox‘s grandmother. I have a trumpet and this was so helpful to me. When Vanessa does her band homework, she does it with me. There are times when we play together. She plays her clarinet part and I play the trumpet part.

      This is great to hear! I have been meaning to do this project for many years and I recently upgraded my video editing equipment so it was a pretty fun project! I’m glad to hear it helped! That was my intention!

    watching this as a woodwind player is terrifying

      Why? You can clean your woodwinds. Just have to remove all the keys. You can submerge plastic and metal for several minutes. Just not wood. It can be wiped down to get cleaned.

      @@RyanReskyTrumpeter woodwinds should only really be wiped down. taking out all of the keys is a lengthy process and the pads or rods can get damaged if you’re not careful. wiping down the instrument is much easier and safer for the instrument, so it wouldn’t be worth the risk or hassle.

      @@food.fighters. sorry but it’s really not an issue doing what I stated when a repair tech does it. Instruments do need to be completely cleaned sometimes and not just wiped down.

    I recently looked on Amazon and the Walmart website for a basin just like that which a trumpet would fit in but couldn't find any. Any idea where I could buy one? Thanks in advance!

    Nice video, but annoying,repetitive “sounds” for a musician. No oil on the threads?

    • @RyanReskyTrumpeter

      You would grease the threads.

      Sorry for the annoying sounds. One of my early attempts with iMovie. I never oil or grease threads as it would be one more thing that would encourage crust and seal them shut. I’ve never had a problem cleaning this way for 40 years - on all brands, king, Bach, monette, etc.

    • @RyanReskyTrumpeter
      @RyanReskyTrumpeter 6 месяцев назад

      Absolutely wrong. Grease or any lubricant will actually prevent the threads from freezing up. It actually prevents corrosion on these parts of the instruments. That’s why when we do this in my shop when a horn comes back for yearly service, we can get all the parts separate with no persuasion what so ever. It’s just clean and service. Greasing/lubing threads are preventive

    as a band director, this is exactly what not to do. you are asking for rust.

      Incorrect! I do this in my repair shop, just with chemicals. It’s totally fine. Just have to make sure it’s dry.

      Hilarious. I’m a band teacher. And player of 40 years. Last time I checked, brass doesn’t rust…only steel rusts.

      It doesn’t rust but it does corrode.
