| I don't understand the above posts. How does a horn respond slowly?
It's a hunk of metal that doesn't change. The change has to be within the player. How fast can you respond to the trumpet is what I would think.
For me response is not the speed, it's just can you make the trumpet do what you want.
If I play a C trumpet and play that bad "E" open and it's out of tune and I have to lip it. I would say that note is not responding. If I play a high C and want the note to ring or sizzle a little and it does I call that responding. If I can't make the note ring I would call that dead. " no response" |
