Radijazz

Logan and I went to Austin yesterday to Radijazz. It was a lot of fun. We will definately be going back again. By the time I was in position to take the pictures his expression had changed but that's the way it goes.

WOW! It looks like a really fun place to be! What it is? Gavin and I need a place like that right now to beat this heat! We have spent way too many days indoors playing and have exhausted all our games and toys! It was supposed to let up tomorrow but now they are saying extreme heat warning through the end of next week. It's horrible!

It's just a themed indoor, air-conditioned play place. It was really neat though. Definately a place to beat the heat. The admission charge is only $3.00 for one year olds and under. Plus they have a snack bar and Internet access available. Good for Moms too.

Jobim, Antonio-Carlos (arr. Scharnberg). No More Blues. trombone forum index trombone forum mouthpieces By the time the trombone gained a regular footing in the orchestra, players of the instrument were no longer usually employed by a cathedral or court orchestra and were therefore expected to provide their own instrument. Military musicians were provided with instruments by the army and instruments like the long F or E bass trombone remained in use there until approximately the time of the First World War, but the orchestral musician understandably adopted the instrument with the widest range which could be most easily applied to play any of the three trombone parts usually scored in any given work - the tenor trombone. The appearance of the valve trombone during the mid-19th century did little to alter the make-up of the trombone section in the orchestra and though it remained popular almost entirely to the exclusion of the slide instrument in countries such as Italy and Bohemia, the valve trombone was ousted from orchestras in Germany and France. The valve trombone continued to enjoy an extended period of popularity in Italy and Bohemia and composers such as Giuseppe Verdi, Giacomo Puccini, Bedich Smetana and Antonn Dvok scored for a section of valve trombones.
