The Feast of Trumpets symbolizes the Rapture – the last great harvest. Polished up enough though, to be ready for rehearsal tomorrow.The Rapture: the ultimate trip In this post, we explore some of the main prophetic points of this Holy Day. Still need to clean it a little more around the tight areas (braces, counterweight), but too much going on right now (it'll have to wait a little while). here's some new ones of mine (it cleaned up nice).

Then, at the Concert last evening, Doug played my LA 4, along with his LA 6. what I thought I had was a Williams 3.ĭoug revealed that no, it was actually a Williams 4. He measured my Williams bore size, with some very specific tooling. I had the honor of meeting Doug Elliot yesterday afternoon, and listen to him play and perform with the Artie Shaw Orchestra. My trombone teacher in college didn't like it's sound and encouraged me to find another horn which, fortunately, turned out to be my 6.Īrtie Shaw break through//Lord of rims w/ calipers///
I found my 6 to be freer blowing than the much larger bored Opera but I may have had a bad one. I was blowing an Olds Opera for four years before getting my Burbank 6. I have to get over there and check out his Burbank 8. I just wished I had had a chance to play on your Williams bass trumpet. You had a couple of 6's that were also fantastic. Just a great sounding horn with that big old bell. it plays substantially purer than my Burbank 9. dark compact sound like a Williams but it didn't really make you work overtly hard. I think the horn that most spoke to me was one of the Williams 4s. Wow, you have an amazing collection of horns and a number of bona fide collector's items. Quote from: chris.amemiya on Aug 24, 2010, 04:20PMDrew, I'm blushing. Williams horns are certainly not the freest blowing horns and they can make you work hard for that dark, compact sound.
And insofar as how they play relative to Kings, Bachs, Kanstuls, Shires, Conns, Yamahas, again, personal choice. I've played horns from all those manufacturing sites that were fine horns. There are good Williams horns and bad ones but you'd expect that from any hand crafted horn since no two horns are identical. next time I'm in Hawaii 'kay?Īnd to the few folks who have posted queries about whether Williams from LA, Burbank, Tennessee, Tulsa play better/differently from one another, I think this largely depends on your own taste and preferences. hearing and seeing someone play like that in person is just mind-boggling and life changing lol! hopefully he chimes in a little later with some reviews!ĭrew, I'm blushing. Quote from: Bach42BOS on Aug 17, 2010, 11:32PMwhat an evening! just got home a little while ago from my storage unit in which i finally got to meet Chris Amemiya! what an amazing player and nice guy! i couldn't believe what he was able to do with the horns! i have never personally seen or heard anyone play like him.
