\u00a0What about the piece is fast? \u00a0The overall tempo? \u00a0The speed of the beat? \u00a0Or the speed of the fastest notes being played? \u00a0I like to think of the triplets as moving along at a quicker pace rather than the beat itself. \u00a0That gives everything more of the majestic quality that is asked for. \u00a0You wouldn&#8217;t expect to see a king or queen running would you?<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/youtu.be\/CNlM598hkeg<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px\">If you are planning to audition for college, this would be a great choice and you should learn the entire piece rather than just these two short excerpts. \u00a0The final\u00a0of the three\u00a0videos here is a complete performance by New York Philharmonic Principal Trombonist Joseph Alessi.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Concertino\u00a0by Ferdinand David, excerpts What can I say about the David that hasn&#8217;t been said before?
