Hero Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 (edited) I'm not involved in any kind of music-making, I'm far too busy with all the work that spreading the revolution in apathetic populations entails, but I don't have much respect for guitar players without further qualifications. Most go for the guitar only because of its prevalence in rock music and its derivatives. How am I supposed to respect a surrender to the post-modernist urban monoculture? There are just too many meaningless buzzwords involved. Brass players, now brass players have my full respect. Strong lungs are the surest sign of a strong heart.

It is, a lot of people are able to make a lot of money off of it. There's a lot of bitching about the proportion of people who get their music illegally, but the paying market is still bigger than it ever was before, in every country.

Mousefire Posted December 16, 2009 Author Share Posted December 16, 2009 big lungs? Isn't it all in the embouchure? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oujay Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 big lungs? Isn't it all in the embouchure? no, your embouchure its not going to get the air for you, it is about the lungs too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hero Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 big lungs? Isn't it all in the embouchure? That doesn't mean anything if you can't get a strong and clear sound out of your instrument, and more importantly sustain that sound. Someone who smokes cigarettes or can't run a mile will have trouble getting a sustained, good sound out of a trombone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mousefire Posted December 17, 2009 Author Share Posted December 17, 2009 no, your embouchure its not going to get the air for you, it is about the lungs too. ah, but without the embouchure, you can't hit the notes. I have perfectly healthy lungs, but I couldn't play the french horn on my first try Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT075 Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 Wut? Middle School Bnad sucks? Well. I just got back from playing in the suckiest performance I've ever heard. Ever. So yes, it does. On topic: I play Clarinet and used to play Piano. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parrhesia Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 I used to play clarinet, but never practices; predictably, I was terrible. Now I can barely stand the sound of clarinets. Vaguely learning acoustic guitar in a roundabout way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
