Favorite Color Of An Instrument

[bossman]

FAvorite color, is and always will be the euphonium/ French Horn.

There's no comparison to those two

[Nancy08]

For WW, English horn and bari sax, and basson when played right. If the reeds too bright...>_<

 

I love f horn, and flugel horn, and euph in the brass.

 

Chimes, and timp for percussion.

 

Cello for strings.

[Shiloh Phoenix]

My favorite color is...red...especially when applied to a tuba...

OMG that's so funny.

 

I wish I had a green clarinet, but I wouldn't abuse it.

Now all I have to do is afford it...

[Shiloh Phoenix]

what brand euph is that?

[EuphToth]

It's a Yamaha. May not be the best brand, but better than the one I'm playing.

That, my friend, would be the Yamaha YEP842S Custom Bb / F Compensating Euphonium

[bossman]

i did that my freshman year with my horn, all we did was trade a couple of pipes and it looked exactly like that.

[whitewing09]

^ lol can you say ghetto jk

 

 

you know i alwayed liked the sound of a trombone and i alway want to try to learn how to play it so i think im gonna do jazz band and learn how

[EuphToth]

I problably should do that too. It's depressing that they don't allow euphonuims in.

[chickora]

I want to do the same thing, but learn Saxaphone.

That's my goal this summer.

[Nancy08]

sax can sound really good (when our all-stater plays it) OR really bad (when I play it )

[Shiloh Phoenix]

Yamaha is a great brand if you buy the right horn, such as a YBB-321 tuba may not be the best choice for a concert tuba, but a YF-101(I think) is a GREAT F tuba.

 

and don't get me started on the quality of their contras, it's phenomenal.

 

speaking of gawdy trumpets... http://www.harrelsontrumpets.com/satellite1.htm

Sexy.

[connman]

 

That's what i'm talking about...even though the trombone itself isn't that color...

 

But soundwise, i like the Trombone sound, it can be goofy, soft, fierce, or smooth and fits in right where it is.

 

But, because i'm biased on that, i'll say Euphonium is my second favorite because it's perfect in marches and can have a bouncy sounding melody to it.

 

I dont really like the trumpet, because the players in my band have shrill sounds, and i dont really care much for the clarinet *sorry guys* because too many people play it and i can hardly hear them (even though there are more than ten people playing)

if you think a mellophone sounds like a dying moose, try listening to a beginner playing the tuba

*salutes*

 

Doesn't everyone sound like a dying moose as a beginner?

I did.

 

It was a long ladder to climb.

 

One that took 5 years.

Yeah, I remember your sound sounded muffled. Remember how I gave you those scale patterns to work on?

[connman]

i didn't sound like a dying moose......more like an elephant being dipped in acid

[Nancy08]

i sounded like a foghorn, or a dying moose...
