Duo Joe Alessi - Phil Smith - 12/05/11

[interracialafrica]

When I first started playing the trumpet at age 10, I found it easier to hold the trumpet at a slight angle since it did not strain my left tricep muscle in keeping the trumpet bell up. Then I got a stern lecture from my teacher at that time and keep it straight up and that little muscle dealt with it. Also, I wonder if the slight twist of the bell affects the tone??? I doubt it. Besides, Phil can place that bell wherever he wants given his stature!

i wonder why he plays his trumpet at an angle can anyone tell me?

@itrugater It's just his personal preference, there's no set way anyone should be doing it.

[inf1nity]

@itrugater it's what's most comfortable for him.

@KnottPatriot Pretty much every country other than the USA put the day before the month. Stop being so self obsessed as seems to be the trend with you Americans.
