Ah...the tuning sounded slightly off at the start and a bit flat on the last note that you played after the glisses. You just need to work on your tone and tuning a little bit and it should be fine :)

What grade are you?

(little note: You could have played the third section a bit faster but that is up to you)

I remember playing this on Brighton bandstand when I was twelve with the Beckenham Concert Band...very scary after only two years of playing!

@AngelaTheTrombonist The Recording isn't great...plus I was only thirteen at the time.

Maybe if you think your better actually upload something of you playing!

I've played trombone for about 7 years now. I'm just about to play this for my grade 6. You play it well.

[jr2629]

@Aviation94 i had played for about 5 years here. I never played it for my grade 6. But i've played it so many times it become kinda fun.

very good, but there's one thing making me sad. Most of the fast parts u make a gissando, thats worse. Try using better tripple and double thoung.

[MrGingernips]

@AngelaTheTrombonist he was rubbish all the way through i play trombone and i am grade six i should know he was poor !!!!

[smellyperson321]

@jr2629 mate, i played that for an audition when i was 13 and i was way better- and yeah, seems cocky but don't go criticising other people if you haven't even heard them play! Angela might be a pretty good trombonist, and the fact that the recording wasn't great doesn't make up for the fact that you played it badly! If you carry on with your trombone and get better, then maybe you won't have to worry about how good the quality of the recording is, and then you can call yourself a trombonist ;)

@jr2629 AngelaTheTrombonist was giving CONSTRUCTIVE criticism... it's a good thing if you want to improve. And yeah, unfortunately you were slightly flat, your position was too far out.

[AngelaTheTrombonist]

@jr2629 I would if there was a decent quality recording, the only reasonable recording that you can hear properly is an audio, and that wouldn't satisfy you, would it? You'd want a video. Oh, and I do play this better, and played it better at 12 years old, also, after only 2 years of playing when I performed it a brighton accompanied by the Beckenham concert band.
