Mendelssohn Trauermarsch for (one armed) Trombone Quartet
มุมมอง 8173 ปีที่แล้ว
A project designed to keep me in shape and sane while my shoulder heals and I wait for the NSO to start up again. My Boeing trombone stand worked pretty well at keeping things relatively steady for this project.

One arm, left hand trombone stand. Wagner's Pilgrim's Chorus
มุมมอง 4574 ปีที่แล้ว
During my time away from the National Symphony Orchestra recovering from shoulder surgery, I built a one hand trombone stand so that I could use my left (good) arm as my slide arm so that my right shoulder could heal. This ended up being a much more difficult project than I'd originally thought. Pitch and finesse proved to be most difficult with the slide on my left. Additionally, the mouthpiec...

Elegy for Mippy II with pile driver
มุมมอง 1.5K8 ปีที่แล้ว
Elegy for Mippy II accompanied by a pile driver that was being used at the Kennedy Center for its expansion project. It's a bit slow and not completely steady, but definitely louder than the tapping foot that's normally used.

I just had rotator cuff surgery today on my left shoulder. To prepare for this, I built a stand to hold my trombone up so I could play with just my right arm. The stand's base is half of a Boeing 737 wheel and the post is a Boeing landing gear actuator; both sourced on eBay. I'm using a couple percussion clamps and part of an ergobone to suspend the trombone in a position that allows me to play...
