Trombone Trills

What fun!

I have a trombone sitting in the house right now.  Friends of mine had a son who no longer was playing the instrument.  I mentioned I would be  interested in trying my hand at blowing a horn!

Well, actually, I had played trombone a decade or so ago.  That was back when I was doing a lot of music, and the opportunity to play trombone was a side light.

Yesterday I pulled out the horn and began to play.  Not for long.  My lips are not in shape at all.  The sound was less than stellar.  But there was a sound.

I’ll carry the mouthpiece with me and see if I can’t get the embouchure back in shape.  Sooner the better.

So, just slip sliding away!  Oh what fun!!!
