G-horns Posted July 15, 2008 Posted July 15, 2008 I can see some kid busting their chops playing that on a Bb trumpet. Not that it was all that easy on G. Serves 'em right. Heh. Quote
frachel Posted June 19, 2009 Author Posted June 19, 2009 Yearly bump. I still like to hold down the 3rd valve and play this from time to time.. too bad I sold my G horn years ago. Enjoy! Quote

frachel Posted September 23, 2011 Author Posted September 23, 2011 (edited) Was playing this today (on a 'comeback' with the trumpet, havent played in years) so figured I'd bump it :-) Edited September 30, 2011 by frachel Quote
MelloHorn13 Posted September 24, 2011 Posted September 24, 2011 Yearly bump. I still like to hold down the 3rd valve and play this from time to time.. too bad I sold my G horn years ago. Enjoy! Just played through this with my third valve down. I would DIE to play this book one time with the 87 hornline. Quote
eheart144 Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 I have quite a few more State Street - just didn't want to overdue the forum...I also have four other guards that I'm not sure who they are. I will post them later and maybe someone will know them. B) I hope others add to the forum too!!! Quote
frachel Posted October 20, 2011 Author Posted October 20, 2011 Just played through this with my third valve down. I would DIE to play this book one time with the 87 hornline. It's been a long time since I've "seen" how the hornlines of today work/practice/etc, but it sounds like its a lot more "professional" for lack of a better word. At least in my own experience back in 87 - there wasn't any audition. I walked into camp, found someone who asked me "can you hit a high-c on a trumpet consistently".. when I answered yes, they just gave me the music for the lead soprano part. There wasn't any semblance of an "audition" until the next month, when one by one we went to a back room with Michael Klesch and Barbara (Moroni? been a while) and they just asked us to play some scales and just talked for a bit.. that was it.. Was really surprised me was there were more than a few soprano's who were actually "learning" to play - woodwind players wanting to do corps, or just fairly beginner players.. lots of fingerings written in, etc. Good times.
