 | More from my first Orchestra Like performance Well, The first thread I posted went over so well I thought I'd post a few other pieces we did. Hark the Hearld Angels Sing is the first clip. I really love to play melodic tunes and I think that this piece shows it. Me and Mr. McMillan really had it in sync here I think. [/quote] The next clip shows my more imperfect side. Here I am blowing my entrance for about 8 bars until I finally get in sync with Mr. McMillan and the rest of the ensemble. The song is Let Us Celebrate; a surprisingly up tempo song for a Catholic Church. It sounded good; I think once I got on the same page with everyone. [/quote] Again; thanks everyone for all the comments and for helping me develope into the Trumpet player that I've always wanted to be. I shudder to think "what might have been" had TM existed when I was in School in the late 70's and Early 80's. Hark The Herald Angels Sing was on Bb and Let Us Celebrate I played on my C and Mr. McMillan played his Bb. The Key signature was B Major (Yuck) so I played it on C. All the best, John Last edited by Eclipsehornplayer : 01-19-2007 at 10:49 AM. |

| Re: More from my first Orchestra Like performance Good clips John, I'd be every pleased with them were I you. You've come a long way in a year, and now you're playing Bb and C trumpets on the same gig and doing well. "Atta boy John!" -cw- |

 | Re: More from my first Orchestra Like performance John, I thought they were both really good clips: the trumpets really seemed to lead everybody else with some terrific counter-melodies in Hark the Herald Angels Sing: you should be really proud. To be honest, I wouldn't have noticed that you were marginally out of sync in Let Us Celebrate if I hadn't been listening out for it. You're right that is surprisingly upbeat for a Catholic Church: I can't imagine my church letting us play that! But again, it was a wholly convincing performance: it sounded good the whole way through! Really well done: you should be really proud! Chris. |

| Re: More from my first Orchestra Like performance Thanks again everyone. I'm really touched to have such positive feedback. This really was the gig of a lifetime for me; I can't wait to do something similar very soon! |
