Wat Im sayin is that a vibrato on a mello or french horn if solo or not is a BIG NO i listen some PROFESSIONAL F-horn players and when they was soloin i didnt hear a LICK of a vibrato they Tone was steady straight across to me nig ga who play wit a vibrato on mello only do it cause they TONE is poo so they TRY to use a vibrato to cover that up
O Ok i understand wat yall sayin but some people take it TOOOOOO far like every half and whole note and some times quarter note has a vibrato now thats out the box LOL
i believe that you can use vibrato, but as someone said not with an ensemble, unless instructed to do so.... I've heard it used on a mellophone and it sounded beautiful "like a voice from tha heavens"...lol... but your tone has to be impeccable...
Its a time and a place for everything. I played saxophone before mello so I automatically have to stop myself from using vibrato like I normally would. Its cool when u playin by yourself but definetly not in a marching band setting.
