Mulan- "I'll Make a Man Out of You" Trombone Cover

My first of (hopefully) many covers. I played, recorded, and edited everything.

"I'll Make a Man Out of You" composed by Matthew Wilder, with lyrics by David Zippel (you know you were singing along), featured in the Disney film Mulan. YouTube user 200411732 arranged it for a trombone quartet, and I slightly adapted it for myself.

The original song (and video) from Mulan:

This is literally my first attempt at video editing- I realize the video is not perfectly synced with the music, or even each video with the other videos. My laptop's poor little microphone could barely take my trombone; the cord of my headphones isn't all that long, so I had to be pretty close to my computer, so I had to make the sound pretty soft. Video done on Adobe Premiere Pro CS5, and audio done on Audacity 1.3 Beta Unicode.

You may have noticed that the arrangement was for a quartet, yet there are five of.. me. The fourth part was written for a bass trombone. I sold my bass trombone a few months ago (thinking I'd never have anything to play on it again). The trombone I'm playing now is a Yamaha, large-bore tenor with a broken F-attachment. I rigged up some rubber bands to hold it in place, so I can either play with it completely engaged or completely disengaged, but I can't readily switch it. So I split the fourth part into two separate ones- the second one with all the notes below the low E.

[earthboundPSI]

and what size mouthpiece by the way ?

[EpicPhalure]

@earthboundPSI It's a Yamaha 48L, which isn't very big for a large bore.

[MrJuanis07]

really good job..!!!which software program do you use to play several videos at the same time??

[EpicPhalure]

@MrJuanis07 It was a trial version of Adobe Premiere Pro CS5. Buying the full program is extremely expensive, so after a month of the trial, I was out of luck.

Great job playing! :)

Also, are you playing a trombone with a f-attachment?

[EpicPhalure]

@PizzaandmangaruleXD Thanks!

Yes and no. It does have an f-attachment, but it was broken while I made this video.. so I couldn't use it.
