Two different types of vibrato. The slide vibrato allows you to always have the
note centred. This has a quite different character to a lip vibrato as used on
other instruments which depend on playing across the "width" of the note. If you
need to blend with cornets perhaps the lip vibrato is more suitable. If playing
a solo perhpas the slide vibrato allows for a more beautiful tone.
