Great dexterity Jim. I was impressed at the ease with which you played this one. That calm seems like the key to it. Thanks. _________________ Bb: Schilke X3L AS SP, Yamaha YTR-6335S

I for one, thoroughly enjoyed that recording, the melody, the tune, and the expressive playing - it's lingering hauntingly.
If one was to look for the music, what title etc would one be looking for? Are you able to help with info re location for purchase?
Again, thank you for the encouragement. _________________ Eliot

Have to agree that the Cherubini melody was really fine listening. Thanks Jim. _________________ Bb: Schilke X3L AS SP, Yamaha YTR-6335S

Episode #17
This may look a little different - I tried my hand at video editing to see how close I could get to the others, but mine is a little rough... I'm learning. New intro in the works!

Hi Jim,
No real problems with your video editing. Of course once you start playing the sound takes over and I do not pay as much attention to the visual. Very nice work again. You really give life to the etudes.

It's sort of like driving - if you are looking just beyond the hood of your car, you are going to be very tense, because your time-to-process is very short, and you are more likely to wreck the car. If you can look well down the road to see what is up ahead, you will be more relaxed. Reading music is exactly the same. Also, if you focus on a mistake you've just made, you take your eyes off the "road" by looking backwards. Ears in the present with eyes in the future. |
Great analogy! |

Again an really nice start to my online day here on the east coast. Your handling of the various Charlier etudes is really wonderful. I am enjoying hearing how they "should" sound.
Thanks again for posting. _________________ Bb: Schilke X3L AS SP, Yamaha YTR-6335S

Episode #19
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JoVvGcW6tZI
In the spirit of full disclosure, I confess I violated one of my cardinal rules in the making of this video. Brandt Etude #28 requires extended use of triple tonguing, and my tongue just gave out. I had to make a small edit, which until now I have been able to avoid. The good news is that I am getting much better at video editing, so the transition should be virtually seamless and should not detract from the overall performance. The bad news is that I am getting much better at video editing, so it will be harder for you to tell when I am cheating. Apologies in advance. _________________ Jim Wilt

Brandt #28 is really challenging. I admire your honesty in advising us of the edit because there was just no way to tell otherwise....
Seriously, your videos are really useful. Aside from David Baldwin's wonderful collection of CDs, which are not widely available, there are not many high quality reference recordings of so much of the standard etude "rep." Your videos are filling an important gap. |

Well Jim,
The edit was so subtle that I am sure many missed it (or thought it was a Youtube ad).
Great job. That is really a tongue numbing one. Glad to know you are really human! _________________ Bb: Schilke X3L AS SP, Yamaha YTR-6335S

Nice change of pace here, Jim, and nicely done. Since your recording is so good, we catch all the nuances of what you are doing. Great sound on the Bb too. Thank you. _________________ Bb: Schilke X3L AS SP, Yamaha YTR-6335S

From what you've written before you've previously worked up most of these (or at least I hope so ).
If you don't mind, how are you approaching (re-)learning these etudes/pieces? _________________ More than one trumpet

Many I have seen before, but the Collins, Cherubini and this Berdiev were new to me. There might another one or two in there, too. _________________ Jim Wilt

indeed! Very impressive - I guess the question becomes how do you approach learning pieces/etudes then! _________________ More than one trumpet
