Man this video showing these ultra high notes while I can barely hit a high b flat
Maybe your lips dont have space in the high range. Try to see you in the mirror and try to move the moutpiece a bit
I see most professional use bigger mouthpieces for better, bigger, sound I assume. So I am going to start using a bigger one and get used to it. I am also 15 years old and new to the euphonium world but I'm glad u have these videos up. Very helpful
Glad it helps! Regarding mouthpiece size if you're going with DW go size 4, Parker size 5, this is the most optimal size for solo, chamber, band and orchestral playing!
+Matonizz ok thanks
@@Matonizz im using the SM4X, your opinion?
Looks like another great tutorial. Way beyond my current level, however, I just had my first private lesson with a highly qualified instructor. I hope he can help me boost my learning curve to where I can make use of this advanced information. I'm sure I can use the strengthening exercises now. And the rest is still fascinating to watch. Inspirational too. Hence the instructor. Thanks again.
r u pro now ?
Me: Plays a woodwind instrument
Also me: Is here at 4am
Hello, I am soon to be an 8th grade euphonium player. I would love to do my middle school allstate band but I am struggling getting a foothold on the instrument. What are some tips you can give for 1. Sight reading and getting better at it 2. Tone quality and intonation and making my sound better 3. How to play higher notes easily and make them come out well and lastly 4. How to get better at the instrument overall. Responding will greatly help and just to say, you are an EXCELLENT euphonium player and I wish you the best 😊
Grazie Maestro, apprezzo molto i tuoi consigli ed esercizi pratici ed.... i colori della bandiera italiana bianco rosso e verde sulla tua felpa!!! Thanks Maestro, I really appreciate your advice and practical exercises and .... the colors of the Italian flag white red and green on your sweatshirt !!!
Make a video on how to gain volume on low pedal notes
Push more air.
This guy put subtitles for the Portuguese guy. Subscribed
Thanks for making video.
the circle behind the thumb is the button?
that's a fifth valve of euphonium?
I've never heard this stuff. Thanks.
I am an average player, and I'm having trouble getting significantly better in my playing. How do you continue to progressively get better at playing without stopping, even when you play every day?
Carson Alverson just keep practicing holding notes without breaking
Great job, greetings from Brazil!!!
I love your videos, your talented and buff what a combo. What other scale besides the Bb scale can I do and can you teach me how to do them SLOWLY. Your awesome Thanks Also can you demonstrate how to play Scotland the Brave?
@Matonizz Thank you! Can you do a video on slotting?
I love that intro
While doing the bending exercises, are your lips supposed to fatigue as if you’re playing in the high register? I can bend the pitches but I am not sure if I’m doing it right. Ps do u have any suggestions for why I am able to hit high Bb and C-Eb consistently but not B natural?
Thanks for the class. it is very helfull, What size is o good mount pece for euphoium?
this doesnt have much to do with this video but what kind of horn do you play on?
It's Sterling Virtuoso buddy
+Matonizz thanks!
Good to know!
I have stamina issues in the lower ranges never mind the higher end lol
How should I go about consistently hitting high G's?
Always go baby steps, that's actually the fastest way to go. Make sure that you are hitting F every single time, then F# every single time and then work your way up to Gs. Best of luck my friend
I’m having problems playing my high g and b flat I’m playing the swan and my solo is next week and I’m considering telling my teacher I can’t do it
Im in 7th grade and i have to play the f scale on tuba,what do i do?
Learn it
I'm having lots of trouble continuously playing high C for my solo, and I only have 1 month left. What do I do??
What solo is that? The problem is that playing high C is not a skill. Relaxed, quick and efficient breathing is a skill. Good support is a skill. Centered embouchure is a skill. Being able to play high notes is just a result of you having certain skillset. Normally If I had a student with such a deadline I would put him on a very specific practice routine targeted to particular goal, I'll be honest and tell you that it is hard for me to say what is the problem in your case. The usual suspects are airflow, mouthpiece centering and pressure control. If you can generally play high C but struggle to do that in a piece context that means whatever you play before you fatigues you to the point where you can't get it. Really focus on your high note setup (make sure the phrase before it is good quality). Option B, put the note down the octave! I much rather hear somebody do that than try and kill themselves up the top. Either way, let me know whether there is anything else I could help you out with and best of luck!
Matonizz My solo is Blue Bells of Scotland by Arthur Pryor. Thank you for the tips! I do lip slurs and long tones every time before I practice and I'm hoping it will build up endurance for my performance.
Заметил: стал играть эти упражнения и у меня стали нестройно звучать ноты А, В, Н, С, в верхнем регистре. И вообще, общий строй испортился. Может я что-то делаю неправильно?
Very nice video, love it! Also what mouthpiece are you using?
I use an Denis wick sm6u ultra but I have a small air gap and it doesn't sound as clear then on my smaller 12c beginner mouthpiece? How do I get rid of this?
+Jeremy Parker-5G 51D, I used DW SM for most of my life but the new Parker mouthpieces are the real deal, the one I have is a prototype, I will get one soon, but it is Lance LaDuke series, they're pretty damn good
+Matonizz Alright thank you, I'll take a look at those mouthpieces
what would you to say some body who hasn't played in 10 years, what kind of exercises should I be working on. I recently bought a euphonium and have been practicing everyday for about 2 hours, obviously it's been a while so nothings the same. I've been doing long tones and focusing on sound. Do you recommend any exercises or books?
Depends on your goals! If you're just doing it recreationally for fun, get some easy mid range tunes to play along and it will work as an exercise. In this case your goal should be having as much fun as possible and there no exercise that will make you play better, it's how you perform the exercises rather. I could tell you to play bunch of low tones and all that good stuff but I feel like I wouldn't be helping you all that much. In order to be specific I would have to know your goals, hear you play and etc. Arban and Clarke were pretty much the only two exercise books I've ever used with small exceptions here and there. If you're looking to take this a bit more serious then your goal is to be as efficient as possible and to make as much progress as possible. In this case you determine which area are you targeting. For example: breathing. Then you will pick an exercises based on that goal which will allow you: 1. Play 2. Be simple enough to put focus on breathing rather than fingers or smth else 3. Track your progress via metronome count, rest amount or whatever it is. This is how you want to be thinking rather than just picking some random exercises. Sorry if that's not too specific but I really hope this gives you some room for thinking and making the best decision yourself my friend.
Best,
Algirdas
thanks so much.. I'd like to eventually join the wind symphony around here. My goal is to get as good as possible, I was first chair all State my senior year in Texas but that's 10 years ago but I'm allot more mature now and feel like I'll grow more now on the euphonium because I'm worried about tone quality, intonation, consistency, breathing which are things I never worried about when I was in school. When I was in school I wanted to be the Best I can that was my goal, it's really my goal again and I'm going to continue to watch your videos and try that just get better. I bought the Yamaha neo your videos helped me choose and many reviews. I plan on finding somebody in the area to give me private lessons eventually. I plan on committing 2 to 3 hours a day to practicing I'm working through the arban book edited by Alessi and Bowman. Thanks so much for your reply. I'll message you if have questions on the future. Again Thanks
Sure! Best of luck!
I too an in a similar situation, and after four months of daily practice have not gotten back to where I once was. As I recommend this to myself, I recommend it you. Be patient. Remember how long it took to get where you were. Be honest to yourself about where you were, and do not be chasing an unreal assessment of your past playing. Record yourself daily and listen to it. Recording is like looking in the mirror, you can't escape the reality of what you hear. Do not be discouraged, rather feed off of what you hear. I ask myself, "where is the power?", but I forget how I sat there in the football stands back in school blasting my head off and how that served to increase my power and stamina. Be patient and work on basics. Scales have proven to be my pathway to improvement. Practice at a higher volume to help with rebuilding strength. Worry about your tonguing and cleanliness at the higher volume. Play lyrical studies that are not too high in range, and most importantly HAVE FUN in the process. If you puff up too much, take a day off. I wish good luck to both you and myself in our journeys back to quality playing. It is a slow process.
9:07 Ventriloquism : D
Great work !
Looking forward to a new video ! ;)
What type of mouthpiece do you use? Great video!
He uses a parker moutpiece
This is an informative video, but the editing makes me feel like Im watching the 9oclock news
I play clarinet and sax. What the hell am i doing here
Prosperity
You should probably ask the question, leaving the last word😄
Kiddin...
what the heck how do you gliss
I'm having trouble with my high register
Work on controlling your low register, this will help you understand airflow, jaw movement, tongue position. Once you're good with it learning high stuff won't be a problem. It takes a bit time buddy so be patient!
Matonizz ok thanks.
Sure man!
Matonizz I can't wave between my notes
Learn it in low register, than work your way up. Make sure breathing is full, quite, relaxed, embouchure is well centered and follow the exercises in the video mate!
Хотелось бы иметь эти уроки на русском языке, хотя бы субтитры. Если это возможно.
