@nicholasb12 how long have you been playing for?

@kovaxtromb Hi, I like the way you sound, so please don't take this as negative criticism. While it is true what you say that there is not much change in the embouchure at a certain level and it is hard to play accurately, but not impossible. Have you checked out the "High F Smackdown" here on youtube featuring Billy Bargetzi, Eddie Elsey, and Wes Funderburk?

Hi, it sounds good.. How high did you go? I believe in your last phrase you went up to triple D. Is that correct.?
-
Damn. I can only go high F. I would die going to G.

@toothpickboy13 those who are trying out for the Phantom regiment on one that's who -___-

lol... bass trombone ftw. Who cares about high notes when you can rock some crazy pedal tones?
-
That has to be some kind of mouthpiece! i can play 1 over the tripple D on trombone but holy hell, thats high!
-
What kind of mouthpiece?

@kovaxtromb im sorry, did you say those notes arent possible with accuracy? check out the video a guy did where he transcribed andy martin's solo on emily

I swear that's not even you playing
so can you actually play in that extreme tessatura or do you just hit the note and slide around? Eclipt, work all registers, relax, use air. Breathing Gym is good, Marsteller Exercises are good, David Vining Daily routines work well, and many other books. If you are losing notes then that means there is too much change in your embouchure. Try to move as little as possible.

no, i cant.. nobody can actually do it .. on tenor trombone those notes are not in position.. above high G it is very difficult to play accurately.. there s no too much change, my friend , believe me :) ..
