Re: Vibrato



Dear Brass Banders,

correct

Yes, Dave is right ! Listen to the Salvation Army player en principal
trumpet player of the New York Philharmonic, Phil Smith. He has got a
very wonderful vibrato (by moving his lower jaw up en down, even on a top
f with <italic>FF</italic>. !!) He has got a very shining tone ! Also
James Watson has got a good vibrato.


Listen to these great players. And try to imitate them !


Regards,
