- Joseph Alessi discusses with his good friend Daniele Morandini their harrowing experiences with Bell's Palsy and how they were both successfully able to overcome it.
Thank you for speaking out about Bell's Palsy. I really appreciate you both promoting more awareness of an injury that brass players and/or wind instrumentalist have and do experience. It's very important! I value you showing some of the stats/information about traits of BP and epidemiology.
Thank you so much, gentlemen! This gives me so much hope. My BP started about a week ago after a run through for a season end performance. The next day, I had a sore throat and chest congestion, and something seemed off with my embouchure. I thought maybe I had caused a mild hematoma during the run through, so I iced it for just a little bit for good measure. The next day, I tested positive for Covid and the BP was in obvious full effect. Air would just blow out the right corner of my mouth. Following morning, I saw the doctor and was prescribed paxlovid and prednisone. I had to miss the performance over that first weekend, and I’m missing other obligations as well this week and next. But this makes me hope for the best for the long term! Can’t thank you both enough for sharing your stories! 🙏
My God, as I’ve been dealing with a very similar “earthshaking” path, your generous and open spirit is so welcome and appreciated, Joe and Daniele. Talking and sharing about these very real, yet mysterious and misunderstood issues is a huge part of the healing and recovery process.
Deepest gratitude to you both.
Glad it might be of some help to you. Good luck!
Frightening 😮
Thank you very much for sharing!
Wow! This is an amazing story and very informative for all brass players. Thank you for sharing!
I've known two people who suffered with this. One was a sudden onset in the middle of a performance. Both recovered, but one had to wear an eye patch for a year. Thanks so much for sharing a very personal and important message.
Sorry that you guys had to experience that. Thank you for sharing. Your dealing with it is very inspirational.
Lucky that we can still hear both of them playing!
Thank you so much for sharing your stories!
Great video, thank you guys.
Thank you, Mr. Alessi. I also had shingles about 5 years ago that involved my right eye and face. I looked like someone used me as a punching bag. I still struggle with numbness and weakness to this day. My skin still has that funny tingling feeling as if the dental novocaine hasn't completely worn off. I have to live with RH for the rest of my life. Playing the trombone is now a hobby as I have had to retire from the business.
Thank you for sharing, thank you so much!
Thanks, Will! Hope all is well with you.
Thank you so much. I had the shingles and had it with the ear trouble as well. I had it on the left side. I thought pain from Cancer was great, but this was one of the worst thing I have been through. Thank you for this. Carole Paul Trombonist
Thanks💪👏

I am a junior Trombone player at the south jones band of braves, I am 4th chair in our wind ensemble but I keep getting a second or 1st part. I have been told to do clinics and things because of my sound, however, I can't seem to get it right where it "needs" to be. I would like to know how Mr.Alessi set up his tone and sound and if he could give some tips. I love you Mr.Alessi have a great day.
