A (belated) Christmas gift to you all!

Post by Finetales »

My first Christmas multitrack in 10 years! It's good to be back.



I used 4 different trombones, along with...a bunch of other stuff. :wink:

Such an instrument should only be used to play a post-lude. Posthum[or]ously.

That's a corno da tirarsi, or slide horn. Mine stands in trombone Bb and has crooks for A, Ab, and G, with a 5-ish position handslide. (I used Bb and A for the video.) As weird as it is, modern examples exist today because Bach wrote for it! The wonderful historical horn player Anneke Scott plays corno da tirarsi often, and sounds much better than I do:

Besides the excellent playing, I am totally impressed by your arranging skills. I have listened a bunch of times already and I keep hearing new stuff. And of course the video arranging too.

What a FANTASTIC arrangement! Some parts remind me of contemporary brass band competition pieces. You should start composing for that style :-)
