We are adding another musical instrument to our collection. I have decided to get in on the act with Angel and Star and join the brass band ... so on Wednesday a euphonium will be arriving for me to try out. In the little tinkering with brass instruments I have done I have discovered I am definitely a lower register person - I just don't have the right mouth for trumpets or cornets - but it remains to be seen how well I will take to it. I can get tunes out of Star's baritone (similar, but lighter) which is a start.
How glad I am that we have tolerant neighbours!
That sounds like so much fun!!!!
ReplyDeleteGood for you! How fun!
ReplyDeleteI played the baritone horn in our high school band 56 years ago. Played it poorly, I confess. I have always been sorry I didn't buy one for myself (I had the band's horn)and kept it up. By the time I had the extra money, it was too late. So good for you. You won't be sorry.
