Your high F actually shorted out my speaker. You played that and I lost sound. :)
I'm 68 and retired. Just bought a new bass bone from Mack Brass, I originally played in school and college marching and lab/dance bands, have megatone and denis wick mouthpieces, and plan on a high C with your guidance. Agree, you are a fantastic teacher. Wish all your videos were in one place. Like all the one man band quartets, I learn better visually than by other methods. You are very inspiring. Keep up the good work.
hey Chris. im a trommbone player myself in high school and your lessons are really helping me become better. could you please make some more lessons. maybe start a series of lessons for high schoolers. thx
That high C made my eyes vibrate.
Came here for the high C. I have my trombone right now, "In the Mood" at my desk, The last note is a low Ab, but right before it high C for 7 counts at 80 bpm THANKS DUDE, YOU GOT A NEW SUB
I started watching these and realized that I already used all of these techniques when I practice, these are what got me into region band. You really are awesome and with a little more practice i will be able to play more advanced music than I am already playing
Am I the only one who absolutely CAN'T double tongue?
You're not alone bud, I can't double tongue either.
Same here I can't
Can't double tongue whatsoever. I can triple tongue up a storm though lol
me too bruh..out of the question
Say "Ti-ka" is what I've heard and it works for me, I've used it on multiple occasions.
I came here because the piece that I'm playing for my high school spring concert has these notes in order: high G, high A, and that super high Bb, followed by another high G and high A, and then high E, high F and high G again. and the double high Bb has been giving me alot of trouble so thank you for making this video!
Marshal6000 Can't hit anything above a high f on baritone. Need to do a double octive b scale for wind ensemble. Guess I'm going to Symphonic band 😑
You are amazing. I knew how to do these things already but i can easily see people learning from your videos. you're very skilled and i hope to one day be as good as you. i've been playing trombone for about 8 years and i honestly don't ever want to let it go so i always look for inspiration in order to motivate myself. you, sir, have successfully motivated me. Thank you.
This guy is a monster. Definitely subbed
If anyone is interested, the second growl he uses is the fluttertongue if y'all want a name to find more info on it
Good video! For the low register range, double pedal notes are totally possible. It's more of a bass bone technique (mainly what I play), but it works on tenor too. The trick is to play it one position lower than normal. E.g. play a Bb in 2nd position. There are vids of it on youtube. Again, great video!
Thnx I could barely play a high F and I learned how to play a high A in just 10 mins great techniques👍
Thanks Christopher for the video. I've learned a lot.
Could you please put the camera to your right in order to see your mouth and jin. I think it is important to watch and study the embouchure how it changes ( or not ) going higher or lower.
Regards
Edmund
Great idea! I'll keep that in mind for the future!
Thank you SO SO much Christopher, that literally helped me to finally get a technique to reach the high C. I am salsa trombone player and usually play in the high register but with much pain sometimes. Your technique worked 100% for me!
..You make me want to convert from Cornet to Trombone.
YES DO IT NOW
Do it :D
Corason no... don't... cornet is dope
Corason do it. If you already have decent to good range on trombone your rang on trombone will be insane. I could only play a g on trumpet if I was lucky but I switched to trombone and I can play a double concert f on a good day. And I'm wayyyyyyyyyyyyy better at trombone than I ever was at trumpet
Do.
Thanks. Watching your video urged me to instantly grab my trombone and try it out.
Being a trombonist, I have learned a lot from your videos.
I learned how to do multiphonics in literally 10 seconds. This video was amazing Christopher Bill you are a GOD
Hey, you might have understood the video a bit better than I did. When he was talking about doing a growl (which is btw the effect I'm going for) do you know what he meant by rolling your tongue?
thats actually a flutter tongue :P and yeah you do, to growl you legitimatly growl as you play
you're a great teacher! Thanks for the tips. Very helpful
I think that a growl is also called a flutter-tongue. Am I right?
+Christian Johnson What's the difference
+Christian Johnson erre
No. You growl with your throat. Flutter tonguing is as name says done with tongue.
Nice job!
Thank you, I have trying to find out how to double tongue for a while now.
I can hit the Bb above middle C pretty easily after practicing (I can hit Db above high C on a regular basis), and I totally agree with you that the embrasure is different.
Thanks for the techniques on playing the high tones. Im playing trombone and a few other brass instruments for some years now, but if i try to play above the one-line-Bb with the bone or baritone, i need damn much pressure, its impossible for me to play above the two-line F and im getting really silent at this height. so ill practice your techniques next weekend and try if i manage to play the notes above Bb1 louder and maybe ill get your c3 (i hope i managed to get the right octaves for the played notes)
Man... I actually have to use the technique you described at 5:00 in order to get a lower A or even the G sometimes. How come you can do this so easily ?
Nvm, I got it.
I need this to play your Frozen arrangement for a spring concert coming up. A little trombonist of mine also re-arranged your original sheet music of it to split the solo part for all of us to play! He's an amazing composer if you;d like to take a look. Although any further tips on how to cleanly reach a high E and C would be very appreciated since I need to have those notes down before May D:
Found this video by accident not even looking for high note vids , I could already hit them, but holy fuck have I never played them so loud, the air to floor technique never really worked till I watched this vid.
Side note tho I could really only get these to work with fresh ass chops or I squeeze my entire face out
nice lesson! how I wish there was youtube when I was learning
You should make a video for playing two notes at once
Hey Christopher, great vid! Just wanted to say, I'm a freshman this year, and I have a pretty well developed high range (I can hit everything I've heard you play) like double high Bb's etc. What I wanted to say was that my old trombone teacher was a pro and told me never to "overlip" I think he called it. It may be harmful? Just saying, Anyway once again great vid, I've watched all of your covers over and over!
One more thing, to play high, I normally have to have a little bit of warm up, and afterword I normally have some difficuly playing low notes (pedal and trigger). Any tips?
can I look at the notation of these techniques somewhere?
Wow... 10 minutes after watching this, I’m hitting triple Bbs!!!!!!!!!!! That’s another freaking octave.
I already knew bout playing cords on tbone
Immediately subbed after watching. Great job!
Thanks a lot, man. ;)
Hmm.. Anyone know what it's like going from playing above the staff on a Trumpet, to playing high on the Trombone?
Generally speaking, if your range on trumpet is above the staff, (Say..High C, which most High School trumpets are able to accomplish without strenuous difficulty) given adjustments to the embouchure, after some practice your range on trombone/baritone/euphonium should generally be a bit higher. Say you go from trumpet to trombone, with a High C range, you should be in the ball park of what would be the bass clef equivalent to a double Bb. I hope this helps, but would recommend checking other sources too.
Me lol
god that top b flat sounds like a me playing a double g on my trumpet...actually thats probably what it is in concert pitch being that trumpets are transposed.all i play is trumpet
Anyone else hear the phasing?
On the growl, I don't do any of that... I just play loud and it just naturally growls.
What if you wanted to do a growl at a lower dynamic? That's where I've needed to develop either the tongue rolling or the growling in the back of the throat. Also, the growling can be better controlled this way, and more similar to Duke's great horn players.
Thats probably because you may use fast enough air where you accidentally vibrate it without realizing
Don't. Please. That's literally disrespectful to your instrument. Disgusting.
7:10
I can barely hit a middle c
me
I can’t even hit high f.. :(
I don't understand to your lesson
I was expecting the high c to be an octave lower, not that crazy nonsense
i can hit a high d
LOL
stop kissing your trombone gee
You sound like your screaming
2 people can't play the trombone :-0
1 dislike omg :O!
I'm lucky if I can hit the C below that haha
How high is he actually going? like on a piano how far from is he from going higher than a piano? It would be insane if he could the range of a piano on his trombone.
The highest note he played on the trombone here is F6 on the piano.
I play extreme altissimo on saxophone and trumpet hitting C8 and above. Pretty can higher than a piano. Learning Trombone I've managed to hit a Bb6. I have my own channel in certain videos displaying this.
Trombone makes Trumpets look like shit.
Is that high C the one above 4 ledger lines up?
How big is your range?
Out of context Bb0-Bb6, in context Bb1-Bb5. Shoot for Bb1-F5 and you'll be just fine.
Christopher Bill What do you mean "out of context" and "in context"?
Karter Wood If you're trying to musically play it in the middle of a phrase (in context) or just sitting there trying to hit a note (out of context)
Christopher Bill Thanks for the explanation. By the way, do you find it harder to hit high notes on smaller or bigger notes?
Funny how big his range is now (If you haven't seen it yet you should watch his range chorale. It has ridiculous range in the piece.)
I'm in the trombone section for the WVU marching band and I love that that you use the octave notation! Pretty much no one does here. And damn do you have an impressive range. D1-Ab5 is my current in context range. Out of context is Bb0-C6.
I've commented on a few of your videos already and I just want to say, you're an amazing trombone player. I've only been play for about a year and a half now and I can hit a few notes above High F, but your tips and videos are really inspiring me to be better than my section leader, who's been playing for 7 years or so. You're an inspiration! Keep it up!
Have you ever used a Wedge mouthpiece and if so do you recommend one? I know it's dependent mostly personal preference but I've been trying to get opinions on the idea, not many people seem to use them.
I have my own high range embouchure which I use for f and above but you do amazing work- this coming from peanut butter
@ Jess walsh, no its the C thats 2 lines above the Treble staff
Thanks so much, this taught me three things I've been trying to learn for a year! I'm only a freshman in high school!
Is it normal for me to be able to play low pedal bs and double pedals really easily on tenor. I feel like they are as easy as concert fs for me
you kinda look like and kinda speak/sound like Jim from The Office :O
I can play the high c but I struggle with getting to e flat
The highest note ive ever played is a double high D
Nice
but im thai
7:11 breaking my ears
Thanks!
Would you happen to be sitting in the choral hall of the music building at SUNY Purchase? Though it's been a long, LONG time since I was there, those stark railings, and that bland color of the walls, look awfully familiar.
+motive440 I certainly was! Though it's been a few years since I've been there either

Can I ask, with lip trills, I've been trying to work it out and I understand the technique I need to do so, however I'm facing troubles with it. I know it takes a lot of practice to get it right, but my problem is what part of my tongue should I use to manipulate to trill, cause I want to make sure I'm using the right part so then I'm not getting annoyed when I'm seeing no real change
The BACK of the tongue should move when doing lip trills. The back of the tongue moves up slightly for the higher note, and down slightly for the lower note. You really never want to move the front of the tongue that much when playing trombone.
***** thank you very much :) just wanted to make sure i was doing the right thing
