Amen.It takes courage to post a link to your own recital playing. Any "bashers" had better post a link to their own playing with any bash, that's for sure...
You have a lot of good things going on in your playing. I would strive for a darker sound overall. What sounds like a clear, focused sound under the bell, sounds like a brighter, smaller sound to the audience. What sounds like a fuzzy, tubby sound under the bell sounds like a clearer yet darker sound to the audience.
Many pros call this "stage make-up".
Good junior recital.

Re: Junior Recital recording is up
I just listened to the 1st mvt of the Gregson and was impressed with your control over the various ranges--transitions were very nice, only an occasional drop of a phrase (Support!) Altogether, you seem to have a concept of what you WANT to sound like and you usually do it.tubashaman wrote:My junior recital can be found here
I am not the best player or anything, and my mouthpiece is too big probably
I know it isnt that good and some of yall will bash me, but any comments or whatever is greatly appreciated

I would experiment with a couple different mouthpieces, but if you do make sure you record the comparisons so you can compare apples to apples. I'd also encourage you to do the Gabrielli at a tempo where you can really lock into it and keep it consistent throughout the variations.
Excellent job - you should be proud of the results.
