Trumpet

the future Mrs. Armstrong Louis sat Lil Hardin in the second trumpet chair so that the saxophone player Oliver will still be king. As Louis played Hardin was greatly influenced by Armstrong’s technique and style, also convinced Lil Hardin to leave the band. When he influenced Lil Hardin she started her own career and she made her a fortune off of it because she got her techniques from Louis and he played very good music on his trumpet. I think it was really cool the way that Lil Hardin learned…

section, trumpet section, trombone section and rhythm section. In the back of the stage were the drummers . To the left of the stage was the bass players and to the right the saxophone players. In the rear were the trumpets, trombone players, and a conductor. I believe this setup allowed for their breathtaking performance and clear sound quality.…

The piece that I have chosen to do research on for this project is “Sonatine, No. 2, "Mouvement de Menuet"” by Maurice Ravel. Firstly, Maurice Ravel was born on 1875 and passed away on 1937. He was a French composer, pianist and conductor of classical music whose most well-known works are Bolero and Daphnis et Chloé. Shortly after his birth, his family moved away to Paris, where he received his first piano lessons in 1882. Maurice Ravel faced many failures in his music career before being…

melody. However, it slowly fades and the piano plays a solo that is slow, light, and dainty. Soon other instruments start to come in and blend together, but the piano stands out because it has a different melody. The violins start tention while the trumpets also join in and create a melody that is similar to a victory sound. Finally the piano takes over and gets a solo that is soon accompanied with the strings. The piano plays a confusing melody that turns into a peaceful one and all the…

Filled with trepidation, I entered the Conservatory Concert Hall for the first time. I was about to catch a classical music concert performed by the students of the Yong Siew Toh Conservatory of Music. As I walked to my seat, I immediately noticed the abundance of spotlights present. I figured that spotlights were able to give a warm atmosphere as were able to show the audience where the focus ought to be. I also noticed a convex wall behind the stage that was draped with curtains. I could not…

blistering cold tears run down my cheeks I didn't want to move. All I wanted was to play trumpet and learn English. But I had nothing to say to Mama and Papa. I never wanted to move I want to make new friends. So then that night I said “ Mama , Papa I don't want to move.” “ Well I'm sorry sweetheart but we need to keep up with the crops.” Mama said. “But Mama I was going to learn English and learn how to play trumpet.”I said. “We'll talk about this in the morning.”Mama said. …

The Junior Instrumental Recital took place in the Corley Auditorium in Webster on Tuesday March 15. The performers were Paige Burris, clarinet and Tyler, trumpet assisted by Kathy Nenadal & Debra Snodgrass piano and Cheryl Cotter, clarinet. I enjoyed when Tyler Jones, Trumpet performed the atmosphere was very calm. The pitch of some of the sounds were very low and some of them were very upbeat. The harmony of the slow songs he played were incredibly beautiful. My favorite music selection had to…

piece of the night Where Never Lark or Eagle Flew by James Curnow. This piece gave the concert a very prominent opening, beginning with trumpets. The sound of trumpets give a feeling of power and royalty when played Allegro and Tenuto. When I first heard this song it reminded me a lot of Bach’s Brandenburg Concerto No. 2 in F major. Both pieces have very powerful trumpet pieces and I truly enjoy them both.…

oboe and trumpet with a short statement for each. Most of them related to the Fortspinnung and Epilogue of the ritornello. Bar 80 is the part of the and long modulatory tutti section with various exchanges between instruments. Until bar 83, it’s Ritornello 5. At the 4th beat of bar 83, it’s a solo section, which is similar to the 4th beat of bar 39, but presenting more sophistication. It used the same terminology with bar 39, but played in different instruments. Oboe is playing trumpet part of…

These past three years I've been involved with the Point Pleasant Black Knight Marching Band continue to be the most incredible three years of my life. I've met many of my close friends through band and I would consider many of them my family. We will always be so much more than just a band and every tear, drop of sweat and bruise quickly becomes worth it. I learned many life lessons from my family. They stick by my side through the worst and best times of my life and I'm so exceptionally lucky…
