Trombones. Nobody likes them.


Recommended Posts

If any person has even a hint of doubt for the lovely instrument, play them this.

That is lovely, but far from worth excusing obnoxious bone players that my dad (professional trombone player) endearingly says are "like a bull in a China shop."

What the difference between a pizza and a drummer?

The pizza can feed a family of four!

That link of the Illinois Graduate Trombone choir is awesome...exactly why I chose the trombone in the first place and did 2 performance degrees on the instrument.

A good t-bone is a wonderful thing (Zoltan Kiss of Mnozil Brass comes to mind right away. Go to YouTube and put in

Florentiner march - MNOZIL BRASS

. His bit starts at 3:45, during "Hungarian Schnapsodie." (called so because it's his feature and he's from Budapest))

They're being used because they can be, and for no other reason. There's nothing SCV's doing with them, for example, that can't be done with a marching bari.
