Mr. Raph, in what time signature did you play this in?

[alanraph]

@CrownCollegeTN

Its in 2/4 time the note units are sixteenths.

[TehGoal]

can this possibly be done on a bass trombone?

[alanraph]

@TehGoal

I've done it on a King DuoGravis with a 1 1/2 G mouthpiece. In fact the video is with the 1 1/2 G.

May I ask a question? Is the f-attachment on a tenor trombone attached where the tuning slide is or do you have to buy a new trombone?

[alanraph]

@PizzaandmangaruleXD

It would be the bell section. You might be able to keep the slide and match it to an F attachment bell.
