SAME BRO

mine sounds like a dying duck when I go past E-flat 3, then I go red...

Start slower and lower... Watch your mouth placement focus on how you blow... You should not squeeze air out.

Relax don’t push it with your throat

Baritone player, but my days have been pretty good! How about yours?

i have to master five scales in two days so that's fun

:D can you send me the time mark please so I could correct it ? :D

lol

id like ur comment but im too childish to ruin that perfect 69

This definitely helps with developing your upper and altissimo range! (This coming from a mellophone/alto sax player)

It's not too late to switch to a real instrument.

@@majcrash oof

@@majcrash 😂😂😂

I play the tuba..

There's no such thing as "flexed but relaxed". I suppose one could say "partially flexed" as opposed to "fully flexed". A tight torso closes your throat. You can prove this by flexing your torso as tight as you possibly can, and then try to talk. It's impossible to do this without there being some amount of strain in your voice. That's because your throat is partially closed from the muscle tension in your core. A closed throat speeds up the air for the same reason putting your thumb over the end of a waterhose speeds up the water. So it'll certainly help increase your airspeed and thus your high range, but you pay for it with added strain in your sound. It's certainly possible to still make a "pretty good" sound with torso tightening, but the absolute top players in the world with the most world-class sounds will certainly advocate against this. Torso tightening is the "quick and easy" path...the real key is developing good inhaling technique, and efficient aperture control in the embouchure. I'm talking about the level of aperture control where one can generate a freebuzz with the most minimal of lip squeezing and can maintain it without it fizzling out.

dctrmusic brass hey could you please help me out hitting my high notes?

nice avatar

@@mikze123 you have caused great confusion and deley

If they’re saying that, they ain’t your mates. Keep working and you’ll get better!

Haha wow you’re so quirky and unique xD

Bari Camilicious | I’m pretty sure he’s Lithuanian.

Thanks friend, glad you like my content. I'm from Lithuania :)

Hey euphonum freshman as well!

Lone Muffun hi!!

Hi friend, glad you found this video useful. Sheet music can be found here :) www.matonizz.com/product/complete-range-training/

Glad you found it useful!

@@Matonizz you are now my idol and David Childs

Hi Graeme, have no clue why that happens, try again later and if that happens send me a screenshot and I'll email support. Sorry for inconvenience!

m1keg0nz idk where but for me I just took a picture of this on my phone and printed it

Какого хрена было написано на русском?

No this is bad you’re just changing your embrasure and applying more pressure

I also play the horn and my highest note so far is high f. This video is actually quite helpful. Try one of the high vowels? I tried it awhile ago and got the high e. Don't tighten your lips too much and focus on your tongue. 👍

I'm a Speech-Language Pathologist and have played trombone and euphonium for over 10 years. This advice is applicable to all brass instruments. Try high vowels like /i/ (heat) or maybe /u/ (hoot). Google "IPA vowel quadrilateral with examples" if you need more help with these vowels for high/mid/low notes. The vowel quadrilateral is a map of where your tongue is in your mouth. Good luck and have fun! 🙂

Brass instruments seem to be popular in Brazil. Is this true?

You would need a 4 valved euphonium for that range really :/ It's possible to fill the range by lip bending of course, but that needs a hell of a tonne of practice to develop reliable accuracy there

@@staccatopeony Thanks! Since my original comment, I've gained a few instruments. I have both a Conn 20J and an Olds 099 tubas, and on these instruments I can get down to a low C on both (but it is weak on the latter instrument). I seem incapable of getting the Bb pedal tone on either. (I've read that at least those big Conn horns are quite good at getting the 'false' tones.) I bought the Olds horn recently--I had considered getting a 4-valved tuba, but then realized the 4th valve wouldn't be of help if I can't loosen my lips enough to buzz that pitch. Having the tubas makes me feel less 'pressure' to play such low notes on the euphonium, trombone, and the Conn 14-I baritone I also have. Interestingly enough, I also have a Conn 14-C alto horn (currently in F, as I haven't installed the extension tubes), and I find that I can get the pedal tone F--but also the F an octave lower, which is the same pitch as the low 'ordinary' F on the tubas! Needless to say, I'm having a lot of fun with these instruments, which also include a Blessing B-125 trumpet, and Olympian, Yamaha, and Conn Director cornets, and an old 1924 Conn "French horn alto' (I usually just call it an old-fashioned mellophone--someone used the terms "antique" and "obsolete" to describe it, but I love playing it.)

Lo mismo digo

Aprendan inglés no es tan difícil y fortalece el oído :P

I think it is a Denis Wick SM or a SM/X

If you haven't yet, you shouldn't

Just about the only thing you can do is join a wind ensemble. There's plenty you can audition for, or I'm sure there's a community band in your area you can join as well. The only other thing you can do is switch to trombone. That way you can still play in an orchestra and occasionally get to play euphonium if the piece calls for it.

Cornel Botnaru just learn how to play trombone I love the euphonium but it's easier to get into an orchestra and bands if you're playing the trombone

Double on tuba. When there's call for euph, you're ready!

Learn tuba or trombone

Well luckily Euphonium players can easily switch to a lot of instruments

Switch to euphonium :D with all seriousness this applies to woodwinds as well buddy :)

Why are bassoons better than oboes? They burn longer! Cheers, mate!

Maybe you should *practice* spelling too

@@madisontaylor2940 Maybe you should loosen up a bit. Being too tightly wrapped might shorten your life.

😂😂😂😂😂 Madison

majcrash maybe you should learn to TAKE A JOKE

Something like range is not determined by how good an improviser you are. It takes time and patience, the common Misconception is that if you simply move your tongue and vowel shape it will fix your range. Give it time. Have patience and realize that there is no rush to play the highest notes possible. Slow and steady practice is the right way about it.

@@jonathansalcedo2522 Glad to hear that! I'm playing again after many years, coming along ok, but the quality of my high notes are still lousy.

And here I thought an 'ah' vowel wouldn't help with your high range

Take them down an octave

Play the brown note

I feel you

I think it is a 4g with gold rim

Euphonium89 euphonium

My friend, click the subtitle button and you will able to see subtitles during the video in order to follow what I'm saying

I wish Im able to hit high notes like you can. I can hit very low notes very easily though haha

The water comes out faster because the limited flow restores the pressure. This scenario is not present in brass playing. The lung pressure is always present just before the aperture.

Subtitles are available, you just need to click the subtitle button

Tiner Towner who’s the profesional here

@@joshuafuentes5411 You spelled embouchure wrong too

There's good fundamental ideas, then it all changes at the extremes of range. This is true for literally anything from voice to brass to sax.

Tiner Towner fuck off

Then pick a different video of his?😂

Darryl Jones whos the professional here?

Oh, so being an instrumentalist also makes one a professional scientist or engineer? Show me one study that actually measures air speed and correlates it to pitch.

Darryl Jones if im wrong, why is it a widespread tactic used across brass instrumentalists. i dont need a damn study to prove common knowledge. Algirdas Matoniz is a professional for a reason, he wouldn't just put it out there if it wasnt true.

@@chefboyardee2497 if you are referring to the action of the tongue movement, yes it is used by most players and should not be discouraged. To attempt to explain it in terms of "air speed" is simply erroneous. Sometimes "common knowledge" is actually a propogated myth. Not to mention his RIDICULOUS comparison of air over the tongue to a bicycle over a hill. Now if he is speaking metaphorically he should state that in the beginning.

@Evan Lin Lips are not ropes in free air. That is an invalid comparison. And the claim that air gains speed because it is going downward is irrelevant in this case. Did the air lose even more speed as it had to travel much farther up from the lungs? If that were the case the air would only flow back to the lungs. It is a ridiculous assertion that he is making.
