One of those stories. This bomber crashed 100 meters behind my grandparent's house. Commemorative plate in memory of the five killed crew members of the bomber Whitley V Z6586/ZA-F which was shot down by a German night fighter on the night of 16 to 17 August 1941 https://www.tracesofwar.com/upload ...

The estate 'het Rosevelt' doesn't seem to be connected to the city of Roosendaal albeit they are only 25 km apart.

Julius Caesar called the people in nowadays Belgium, Holland, North Germany the Germans. But Germany has a lot of different names around the world. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/74/Germany_Name_European_Languages.png/525px-Germany_Name_European_Languages.png Must be a great ...

Why bother with the right pronunciation in the original language.
All dutch/belgian/german... last names or all anglicised anyhow.

Re: Beginner advice
Engineer here: find a teacher who actually plays the tuba. Shouldn't that be, find an engineer who plays the tuba to teach you. According to some students... My PhD in engineering means that I think at too high of a level to actual be able to teach. By that logic.. being a barely passable tuba ...

Re: paperless
A new tablet in comparison with a new tuba, no cheating.
Not that I remember you selling that kind of tuba so cheap. I do remember you selling a Besson baritone and you almost got a fit and called me a liar when I said a bought one for less than half.

Stop overanalysing, it doesn't get any better than this.

Re: What makes the sound?
Well, to be basic, God created the ability to make sound. You have 120 years to figure out how He did it. Then by that time, after you figured it out, you'd probably forget why you were wondering about it in the first place, forget why you were searching for that and your time would be up . The ...

Re: What makes the sound?
So houses are made for the throw away economy? My house is 125 years old and is doing better than lots of newer builds on build quality. Engineering might be better in design, but construction isn’t! I guess you could say the same about tubas. A certain 6/4 CC made in China apparently has the top e ...

Re: What makes the sound?
You obviously don’t catch the joke. Guess the old days of these forums are dying. This was before my time but has been brought up over the years. Since you are a hobbyist, I would say spending time making music would be beneficial than the over-analysis. But to each their own. And I’ve been wat ...

Muscling through this issue sort of reminds me of attempting to step up one's jogging routine to fix a broken leg... ...but knowitallism is not uncommon: I can think of a bloke who is pretty stubborn about believing he knows some things because he's paid to do them, and another fellow who is pretty ...

I don’t think about my lips when I play or think about embouchure nor do I teach it. Then again, I’m rooted in Jacobs/Rocco pedagogy.

Re: What makes the sound?
I have a “double buzz.” I am generating two waves, but they are different and out of phase. Sometimes slightly out of phase, sometimes completely out of phase. This results in varying degrees of severity. Any and all are invited to address and explain this phenomenon from your point of view. And how ...

Re: What makes the sound?
It isn't that because of some exceptions which will probably exist that you can dismiss the positive and negative pressure in the mouthpiece forcing the lips in and out and the fact that the efficiency of the standing wave being reflected is the highest when it hits a solid object and not one with ...
