We have reached T this week - so of course I chose a Trumpet, here are some views of a trumpet I hope you like them:
Just to be technical and in case my son looks at this, the photos are of a Trumpet in C, in UK it is more common to play a Trumpet in Bb, this is my son's trumpet and I love playing it, although I don't play it very often as most of the music I play is written for Bb and I am not too good at transposing.To find out more about ABC Wednesday and see links to other participants' sites go to mrs nesbitts place
Those are great photographs of the trumpet. Too bad you didn't add a you-tube of you or your son playing it :0)
ReplyDeleteEllen B - maybe I will add a video you never know!!!
ReplyDeleteHi from Talca, Chile, beautiful blog, pretty and interesting photos, congratulations.

bye.

This is one I didn't think of. Good T.
ReplyDeleteThese photos are great! I'll be happy to make a video for you-tube but you'll have to wait until I have a good playing day!! There are already some videos of me playing if you search for "clearnitesky" on there, but none on this instrument...
ReplyDeleteI may have to get some of these shots for when I make a website :)
I particularly like the one of the valves with orange background.
Thanks Rich - well watch this space for when Rich makes a new video, it is worth looking at the ones he has already done.
ReplyDeleteLove the close-ups of the valves, and gorgeous warm colours. I also play trumpet (very badly) and french horn, but it's been so-o long!
ReplyDeleteGreat photos, I love all of the different angles.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful instrument. I especially love the close-up shots.
ReplyDeleteI am not good at transposing either but I am sure you are awesome at it!
ReplyDeleteLove the photo.
Mine is up here and here.
This is a great idea... I never even gave thought to this. I love the angles and close ups you gave to this!

Wonderful photos, Barbara! My Dad played the trumpet when he was younger, but me? Alas, no musical talent at all.
ReplyDeleteNothing like blowing your own trumpet - but I'll blow it for you instead - these photo's are superb!!
ReplyDeleteGreat post too.

ReplyDeleteOne of my sons played trumpet for a while.
