Herseth's studio

One of the best days of my life: Adolph Herseth, not only one of the biggest sounds of history, but also, one of the biggest hearts. He is 88, but he still loves music as if he was a kid. His personality and his wisdom provides me motivation to keep practicing, or as he would say, performing. I hope you can enjoy this video as much as I enjoyed this experience. Thank you, Mr. Herseth!

Principal trumpet problems. so many mouthpieces he cant find the right one. some many trumpets he runs out of room.

I wish that was my principal problem as well, having to many mouthpieces and too many bass trombones. When I was with Mr. Herseth, I didnt feel it like a problem. I felt like there were not a "right one", as you say, just different mouthpieces you can pick depending on what music demands. But if there is a right one, please, let us know. Thanks

@todaystomsawyer Only the violins are stuffy, actually. The rest of the orchestra hates them :)

And to think people often characterize classical musicians as stuffy. xD

This is really something for an old trumpet player who studied his performances and admired him more than anyone (still do) but never got to see this side of him. Thank you.
