Super FX Andrea :)
it has seen some hard use but I bet it still sounds great - wonderful postwork
You've liquefied it. Nice work. Benny Hill could always make the word sound dirty.
I only know what this is cos a friend of mine plays one!
You did an amazing job with this.
We didn't go to the Tuba Christmas this year, but I hear they had 580 euphoniums, tubas, and sousaphones! We'll go next year ... it was just bad timing last weekend. It's fun to see this, and to think about the sound!
Wonderful picture of this golden oldie.
Xoxoxoxo
well since tara's not here now, I heard a recording of that mass euphonium/tuba/sousaphone group, and man, that's a sound I'm not sure I could take more than a few times in a lifetime. They're really good, but these are instruments that should be played in groups of 2 or 3. Even Wagner's brass has its limits. You really transformed this: The flickr version is replete with rust and age and tarnish and that matte quality you get on shiny metal when it's past its prime. This, on the other hand, is like a big drawing of the patterns alone, like metal beset with colonies oozing their way across the surfaces. Two really different photos---artistically, this one is far more fascinating, whereas the other shows the true aged character of an old piece of brass.
(I was grateful that tara sent me the link, because it was something to hear such clarity with all those low bulbous instruments. But it's like bear-fat or lard; it's so thick you need some drano to cut through it. Not that I eat a lot of drano, but you know what I mean.)
