Half plunger on trigger notes

[imsevimse]

I think you missed the "half-plunger" when you read the part. Look again and it will make sense. The post is about a solution to solve this and play as is.

I didn't miss it (pretends to be offended! but not really) I just veered off topic.

Actually for some of us the factitious notes sound pretty close to half plunger anyway, so your solution is doubly good.

Ok in that case there is no real need for the plunger if it already sounds like you are using one.

I listened to the recording and I hear the trombones play open. This means it probably is an editors misstake like Doug thought. Anyway it was a fun discussion and I got to learn something I didn't know, and that is the factitious notes (for me) are even easier with a plunger. And my fellow trombonists in the section had no clue what I was dealing with. Most smallbore tenor players here do not know much of the life of a bass trombone player. They didn't realize what I did until I told them, and actually that's good. It means they accepted what I was doing because they didn't think of the section playing as weak. I don't think I will tell them it likely is an editor mistake because it was fun to do .
