Rota 1st movement
Here’s a clip I found of the Rota Concerto 1st movement, from trombone class a few weeks ago. Had some issues with nerves and articulation but happy with how it’s coming on. #taketwo. . . . . #trombone #trombones #trombonist #music #musician #musicians #musiciansofinstagram #recital #performance #brass #lowbrass #practise #technique #symphony #orchestra #exercise #warmup #flexibility #rota #ninorota #concerto #tromboneconcerto

More Kahila, I find this 2nd part tricky. Focussing on connecting the notes and keeping a light articulation. #fun . . . . . . #trombone #trombones #trombonist #music #musician #musicians #musiciansofinstagram #recital #performance #brass #lowbrass #practise #technique #symphony #orchestra #exercise #warmup #flexibility

Here’s a practise clip of a nice Kahila study, I enjoy playing this to work on legato and musicality :)) . . . . . #trombone #trombones #trombonist #music #musician #musicians #musiciansofinstagram #recital #performance #brass #lowbrass #practise #technique #symphony #orchestra #exercise #warmup #flexibility

Nice short trombone solo in 'I've Got You Under My Skin' Was a pleasure to play my last gig of the year with @thenqbb before heading back to Dublin, it's been a great month playing such amazing classic tunes with the band (and listening to @james__b__stephens 🤩) Really looking forward to what's to come in 2023. . . . . . #trombone #trombones #trombonist #music #musician #musicians #musiciansofinstagram #recital #performance #brass #lowbrass #practise #technique #symphony #orchestra #exercise #warmup #flexibility #bigband #jazz #jazzband #horns #swing #blues #christmas #xmas #christmasmood #christmasjazz #sinatra #trombonesolo

Throwback to a few weeks ago, playing Rachmaninov’s Symphonic Dances in the @rncmlive Concert Orchestra with Sir Mark Elder. A beautiful piece with so many colours and stories to tell, was a real highlight of the term personally ......#trombone #trombones #trombonist #music #musician #musicians #musiciansofinstagram #recital #performance #brass #lowbrass #practise #technique #symphony #orchestra #exercise #warmup #flexibility #dance #dances #picplaypost #rach #rachmaninov #rachmaninoff #symphonic

Here's a nice little multiphonics exercise I do, singing the upper line and buzzing the lower one.

Nice to have a little breather after a super busy month. Enjoyed slowing things down a bit, practising and working on new rep. Here's the opening to Jongen's 'Aria et Polonaise', a bit rough and ready, plenty to work on over summer! . . . . . #trombone #trombones #trombonist #music #musician #musicians #musiciansofinstagram #recital #performance #brass #lowbrass #practise #technique #symphony #orchestra #recital #jongen #aria #polonaise #posaune
