Rehearsal Doodle Mega Post

I drew these while in rehearsal! I play trumpet for the Rose City Wind Symphony, and I should be paying more attention to my conductor!

I never did buy that plunger mute... I just used my hand.

Want to hear us play? Here's a link to the concert recording:

I'm in the second half with the Wind Symphony. My fave piece was the Low Down Brown Get Down by Omar Thomas. The 1st trumpet part is KILLER, and we nailed it.

Band version

Have I ever kissed a boy? No. But I am arranging for a version of “The Predatory Wasp Of The Palisades Is Out To Get Us!” by Sufjan Stevens for wind ensemble.

So, that’s actually gayer.

things you don’t want to hear during rehearsal

out-of-tune shifting

the squeaky sound of someone rosining their bow

“oh, wait. is this two pages?”

a cello falling over onto its bridge

a flute falling off a music stand

the neck of a double bass hitting something

a breaking string

the clarinets tuning

someone’s endpin sliding back in

careless whisper

the violas

someone hitting their head on their tuning pegs

the low brass slowing down

the percussion speeding up

the percussion breaking their sticks

someone’s phone

only half the room remembering the ritardando

an alto saxophone attempting a high c

a clarinet attempting anything past a high c

“my reed!”

the trumpets

someone spilling a water bottle

a second violin when their part says they have to shift

all but one of the violins forgetting the g#

a bow stroke longer than 8 beats

pizzicato sixteenth notes

christmas songs in september

the sound of someone stepping on a ligature

“cork grease, the forbidden snack”

someone playing your solo much better than you

kazoos

gum

a bow that isn’t rosined nearly enough

someone knocking over their case with their foot

drumline in a closed space

the piccolos

someone sneezing into their instrument

“let’s sing our parts”

Anyway, welcome to Wind Symphony...
