Wonderful performance, Mr. Werden...thank you! I'm just now coming back to the euphonium after a seventeen year "hiatus" and am working my way through your book "Advanced Fingering Guide" after recently, and accidentally, stumbling across a Brua Keefer horn built in 1933 that still plays like a champ, and I love how you demonstrate so fluidly how a technically advanced passage can be played using only the fourth valve. Your video just made my day...thanks again! I can't wait to practice later today. I'm feeling inspired!
Thanks! I have always been one to use alternates when it worked in my favor. In the early 1970's I came across this trick, but I did it on trombone. We had a solo feature in our jazz band, and on my triggered trombone I could play the whole thing without moving the slide. In that case, the joke was to tuck my right hand into my coat, like Napoleon. (Never did it that way in public back then, though).
Thanks! I don't mind you asking. It is the QHR Euphonium Hand Strap. Also, for sitting, you might try the lap pad from the same company. Both are fantastic! stores.quickhornrinse.com/ehs-001-euphonium-hand-strap/
Great piece I finally ordered it last week and its been alot of fun. Do you know where I can order the minor section it was not included in the link order
I'm using an Audio Technica stereo condenser mic. I think it was about $400-500 when I bought it. Here is the nearest current model: www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/602080-REG/Audio_Technica_AT8022_AT8022_X_Y_Stereo_Phantom.html

Isaiah Devoe it can be used to get a better intonations on pitches played with the first and second valve. for instance, when played with 1 2, the D in the middle of the staff can sometimes be a bit sharp, by using the third valve instead of 1 2, it will be more on the flat side
MusicianGamer12 got the right answer. Either fingering works on a concert G, for example, and I use 3 because it is slightly better in tune and because the sound is a little smoother.
Your teacher may be correct as well. Many 3-valve horns are made with the 3rd-valve tubing a little longer, so they will not be so sharp with 1&3 and 1,2&3. For those horns, 3 alone will generally be flat. This is especially true of the front-valve American brands - at least, it used to be true - but it can be the case with any, so check with a tuner and see how it goes.
What a brilliant piece of music, played brilliantly!
Dave, thanks - really enjoyed your playing. Nice to hear this famous old solo again. And congratulations to Sarah for her wonderful accompaniment

Absolutely AMAZING!!!
Well done as always! Bravo!
Very nice playing and sound!
I enjoyed the sleight of hand in the last movement, Dave. :) Nice playing.

супер. мега
Fantastic playing! Do you mind if I ask where you got the wrist band? I always get pain in my left hand and it looks really helpful.

What microphone are you using for recording? Sounds great!

Look mom, no hands!
is there a reason for using 3rd valve by itself

Wow thank you. My teacher always told me 3 was out of tune
