So, I had the most awesome lesson yesterday. (******** knows why I waited this long to write about it. XD)
I finally stepped up to playing trumpets in other keys. Your basic trumpet is the Bb, and Moore let me play a C, Eb, and D (in that order). It was the most amazing thing ever! It was so cool, playing the D and Eb and feeling how different they are to play. They're a lot smaller than the Bb, and they're a lot more crisp and easier to articulate on. Moore's going to lend me his D and I'm going to learn a song on it, then I get to start playing the kind of music that I really want to! Bach cantatas! I'll get the D horn tomorrow, since Moore didn't have its case with him. It's worth 5k, so I have to be really careful. And he said the Eb is worth even more, and it can't ever leave his office, so I'm pretty sure it's worth more than my life. gonk
