Hey paul, thanks for posting all of your educational videos. I’ve been playing the French Horn for a few years now but i’ve decided to start learning the trombone so that I can be in my highschool’s jazz band, and it wouldn’t be possible for me to learn it without your videos!!
Thank you, Paul. This is my first visit to your channel, and I've learned so much already. I'm a wannabe trombone player. I currently play the Blues Harmonica. Been doing that for 35 years. I found a King Liberty 2-B in a Thrift Store. So much to learn
I started out on the trombone when I was in 5th grade and I'm 62 now. Our band leader was very knowledgeable and told us the same things you're saying here. I wish I would've been more mature & paid attention. I've made up my mind to be a trombone player so I'm starting with this basic; embouchure. I want to play my instrument in church but I have a ways to go before I can do that. Thanks for the help Paul!
It is now late in my life and my band “teacher” was a violinist so embouchure was not even talked about. Your lessons are very useful as I pick up the trombone again. Rented a trombone to see if I can start again with more insight gained from your videos. Thank you!
Thanks, Paul. Needed this. Recently picked up the trombone again after a very long hiatus. the journey to get back into shape is indeed long but I am intent on faithfully and daily doing these exercises to get my chops back into shape.
I played as a grade school child but quit. I picked it back up about 2 weeks ago & now starting to develop proper emboucher. Thank you for this video; it’s extremely helpful! I know I have a long way to go but I’m gonna be a trombone player even if it kills me🙂.
Thanks. I’ve been playing for 4 years. I started to become a great player but took a big break. I sort of lost it, but you reminded me I need to use all the muscles, not just the corners specifically. Thanks. Hope all is well
Hi ! Thank you for all your valuable advices ! I'm a french trombonist, new player for 4 years, and after listening your video I undestood I put to much pressure 🙂 More work to come !
I watched the masterclass. I think it will help me a lot. Thank you!. I stopped playing after High School over 40 years ago. I got serious again a couple of years ago and was lucky enough to find a fantastic teacher. I have been struggling with my tone quality so I think this will help.
Hey thanks dude, I’m in my high school band and I’ve been playing the trombone for about 6 years now but I need to improve from the basics so thank you for these
I've seen a couple of videos from you because I have music at school and I have to learn how to play trombone, and they are pretty good and straightforward. Keep doing the good work, man❤
Im practing absolutley everything for a chance to get a solo for Love For Sal, its me(Freshman) against the world(Juniors and seniors) wish me luck and thank you
hii, i just wanted to say thank you for making this video. i’ve been struggling with embouchure on my trombone and it comes out all wonky. Thank you so much this helps a lot
Thank you for making this video! I was never taught how to set my embouchure and have been trying my best to improve it on my own. I’ve gathered that corners should be set but I’ve also heard that you should keep your chin flat. Will keeping my chin flat help me get better control over my instrument?
Not me playing an air mouthpiece at work and now my lips are tingling 🤣🤣🤣🤣 daaaannnggg... I swear... every video I watch I just want to storm Meyer Music and get me boned!
Hi Paul. I appreciate the tips! I am a trumpet player so I picked up a nice Reynolds Bb valve trombone because I’m too old (or lazy) to learn slide positions! :) However, I’m sure everything you had to say about embouchure will still apply!? My trombone came with a 12 C mouthpiece. I’m finding I’m having trouble getting clear, consistent tone in the middle C range. I’m sure it’s mainly due to the difference in mouthpiece sizes and, since I don’t play my trumpet that often anymore, lack of muscle tone but would you recommend a different mouthpiece in my situation? Thanks!
Thank you Paul. My names armaan I’ve been playing trombone for about 1 year. I started in 7th grade and now I’m in 8th. I can double tongue flutter tongue and my tone is getting better every day. Is there any way we can meet up on a zoom call or something and you could help me improve my trombone playing. Keep in mind im a middle schooler not a pro but im determined to get better and I practice for many hours every day.
Please have your mouth facing the camera! Your trombone blocked your face! Same with buzzing. You used your right hand to hold the mouthpiece and so we couldn't actually see your mouth.

just starting trombone this past week, and the mouth has been the biggest struggle for me, this really has helped!

I'm picking the trombone back up after 36 years. Any thoughts tips for an older person returning?

W tutorial
Do you have any tips for playing with too much pressure. It’s a bad habit I’ve had for a while.
Ya , I’ll make a video on it, thanks for the idea
@@PaulTheTrombonist No, thank you for the content

Great job!
Would you recommend a heritage 2AL mouthpiece for bass trombone playing?
Whatever happened to Squinch Scat Guy?
He lives inside us all
😎✌
I think my lips are too big to have a fast buzz
