Producing Sounds & the Misconceptions of Buzzing | Wayne Bergeron

Man, what an opportunity for kids who ha the chance to be in this session.

I love how the young ladys on the right edge of the picture - get shaken by Wayne killing these high notes - check out time 03:33 :-) so funny

What a great set of ideas for young students to hear! Marvelous teaching!!

Fantastic, pure gold.

When W. was in Jr high, Their marching band performed Smoke on the Water in local parades. He's in his element giving back to these young musicians.

Oh yes, thank you! This is how it is!

Thank good this info is out there. I wish I’d have known it at the outset. And beyond! GREAT POST

Loved it !

Exactly, Wayne. Just like Bill Adam taught. I learned it from an Adam student.

05:05 a pianist, especially those from Menachem Pressler's studio would strooooongly disagree. Sure, to make a sound is simple mechnically. To make a beautiful sound where one does not overtax the string and cause it to emit fewer overtones takes real skill and understanding of diminishing returns. But I quibble. :-b Why I am writing to say is there is more here for classical/operatic tenors singing technique than meets the eye. Serious wisdom is being doled out. It represents the radical departure tenors made around 1940 when they began to sing "more open" which is Wayne's preferred aesthetic on trumpet. He's mastered resistance (something Mario Del Monaco said he thought long and hard on) and has presented a REAL strategy and concept how to negotiate this physical demand. It's a complete departure from "Head Voice" thinking in singing and gives us the greatest voices in the modern era who all shared Wayne's priorities. He seeks to make it as efficient as possible but within respect to his aesthetic priorities. Blows my mind how articulate he is here and other videos. Thank you!

E X P E R T I S E and W I S D O M !!

Hmmm...and yet Lynn Nicholson does segments where it is all about the buzz, showing extreme high playing on just the rim and advocating for that. Contradictory concepts from two famous players.

lol the girls... literally can't handle it 😂😂

NOTHING IS WRITTEN IN STONE=mc2 CONCERNING EMBOUCHURE=mc2, A VERY🎺PERSONAL POV👅APPROACH TO IT.⚖️🎶

Bruh, I had my speakers pumping coz he talks so quietly. Nearly died at 3:34

I don’t get why a segment of brass players insist on getting so metaphysical about this topic. The lips do vibrate when one plays. The horn sounds best when the player doesn’t fight the horn with the lips. In his first demonstration he fights the horn. It is physics that a brass instrument pulls the buzz down in pitch. If you don’t let that happen it sounds bad. Great player, but the stuff he says is pretty much useless.
