From Russia with Love

That was really good Russell ,that trumpet sounded good and it is really small.

That is a happy catchy tune (although the riff reminds me of "all of me").  Merv can sure blow that thing, and frankly has more wind than I do.... but for the benefit of Dino, I think that trumpet is actually a Cornet.  Kind of the "travel guitar" of the Trumpet Family.  I personally like the tone as it is mellower even without a mute.

Confession time:  I sold my Baritone years ago...... but there is still a "Bone" in it's case in the corner of the music room next to the Piano.  I hesitate to mention it as this is a Guitar Forum, and risk expulsion or censure for blasphemy.

Nice job! Musical mutancy runs in the family, I guess.

I've also got a trumpet, slide trombone, and valve trombone in the basement. The trumpet is out in hot rotation now because my youngest likes playing it. She doesn't know how, but she's doing a great job learning on her own. I'm hesitant to introduce any disciplined, organized instruction as it would likely take away from the fun.

I do believe he is Vasily Bogatyrev, at least he is credited for the music for the series (which is also available on YT in several languages including English).  As to where the sound studio is located..... that could be anyone's guess, but the dubbing is done in Southern California, and one video I watched where he did a video tour of his personal studio, had Palm Trees, and lots of equipment from US sources.  Sorry my Russian is not better, I can generally follow the narrative, but they talk so darn fast!  Of Course our British friends say the same of Americans too, and we speak the same language (sort of).

Take Care;
Doug

PS: Thanks for the link Russell, the Grandkids are really enjoying the animated series, dubbed in English .
