Bass trombone evening Codarts

Yesterday evening I organised a bass trombone evening at the "Codarts" Conservatory.

6 of my students were there to join me in a session of Daily routines and after that all played
a solo piece. I asked everybody to judge the playing of their colleagues.

This gives the students a good chance to exercise audition situation. The ambience was very good and
all students experienced it as a very positive thing.
Beside being nice to each other they also gave very good critics. As teacher it is always very helpful to hear
what the student hears when he is Not playing himself.

Konstantin Koev was not able to join us because he was in Finland to play there

Also Jesse vd Ham did not join us because he helped the The Hague Conservatory
in their Big Band. They needed badly a bass trombone for a project.
