Who's heard Christian Lindberg do this on trombone and double-tongue his solo into the oblivions of awesome so fast it makes normal trombone players **** their pants?
I have and it's still just as amazing as when I first heard it. Hope you find it
Ummm I have to play this as a freshmen in highschool..aha..seems pretty challenging...nothing too challenging rhythmically I guess...But I'm working on it! Stupid flats..good thing they are in the slow part..well wish me luck!
they dont put an "A" where the Bbb is because "A" doesnt fit the chord, even though it technically has the same pitch. idk if u would understand that or not
@devonmoore1219 That's about the size of it. For example, a dominant 7th chord is made up of 3rds, as in C-E-G-Bb. So if you want a Cb 7th chord, then of course it would be Cb-Eb-Gb-Bbb. In the key of Cb, an A (equal in pitch to a Bbb) would not fit well.
My band teacher just gave me this to use for college auditions and for my solo recital... I'm a bit nervous but excited! Also, I feel inexperienced, having to ask this, but how do you play the double B flat? What's the fingering for it?
@SunshineGirl92594 If you mean the low B-flat (bass clef), that is often called a "Pedal B-flat" and it is played open. It is the same fingering as the B-flat on the 2nd line of the bass clef staff, and you can go down from pedal B-flat the same as from low B-flat (open, 2nd valve, 1st valve, 1&2, etc.). It's a good range to practice a little every day.
@dwerden Thank you for the advice, but that's not the one I meant... on my piece, there is a point when a the concert b flat (in bass clef, the tuning note) has two flats next to it. I was just wondering what that was. I haven't played something with that before.
@SunshineGirl92594 Ah, I get it. I was taking "double b-flat" as one would take "double high c". A double flat is kind-of like math, as is a double sharp (which looks like a funny X). A single flat lowers a pitch by one half step. A double flat does that twice, so it lowers the pitch by 2 half steps. In this case it changes it from b natural, to b-flat, finally to A. Does that make sense? By the same token, a G double sharp goes from G to G sharp to A.
I've just been assigned this solo for my recital this semester. I'm so excited to play it - especially that C#!!!! ... If I can... I've just been listening to that tiny section repeatedly. It's my absolute favorite part and I'll be very sad if I have to take the optional E instead.
