I totally love these videos; In my 12+ years of playing music (brass instruments) I NEVER learned theory, and now that i'm teaching more than playing, it's helpful to know why things are the way they are. It's invaluable information.
Clarification of the instrument transposition; Andrew's explanation confused me a little bit so I wanted to reiterate. Bb instruments' "C" note is in the same place as the concert pitch "C", but sounds a whole step (+2nd) lower. So, if transposing (for ex.) a Violin part into trumpet, you would RAISE the violin part a +2nd so that the trumpet would play the same concert notes.
I think if you have a Bb trumpet and the score its in E major, the trumpet should be written in F# mayor , in order to get everybody playing in the same tone, dont you think so?
Aww. I try Andrew to be the first to comment, but I can never make it in time...I guess second will have to do! I'm so happy to see these back in my recently added tab. I hope you know there are some of us who still anticipate regularly your new videos!
You forgot to add a second O to bassoOn... (7:14)

So a C on a Bb trumpet sounds like a Bb, then why not just call it a Bb?

Violin - C D E F G
Trumpet - D E F# G# A#
Same pitches, Bb just written +2nd higher.

If i need to transpose a Bb trumpet to F horn, does that mean I need to go 4 notes down?

But a piano makes sounds with hammers and strings.. So why is not a piano called a percussion string instrument?

@CRAIGARRR String instrument is by plucking or bowing... I think. Yea I think thats how they classify it
RSign321 1 year ago
Percussion is when you hit things together and make a sound... or when two things touch may be a better way too say it.
