This upcoming season is going to be my 4th Marching Band season, but my 1st playing Baritone. In my first 2 years, I played trumpet, and 3rd I played Sousaphone. I am a bit nervous about arm fatigue, does anyone have any workouts/ advice to prepare my arms for the season?
This will be my first full season marching Baritone, I used to play alto, and I was wondering what is the best way to gain that muscle to hold up the instrument through the entire show?
I've been looking around and found out about Baritone guitars so I'm wondering, what's a good reliable brand (or model) of baritone guitars that I can get?
So, kind of a strange question, I'll try to explain.
Been playing gtr for about 4 years, exclusively metal, exclusively rhythm. Finally want to upgrade from my 100 euro superstrat and I've set my sights firmly on the Harley Benton Amarok. Simply no debating that there's no better metal axe for the price, I'm afraid.
Here's the thing: it has a baritone version for the same exact price, which has thrown me into a week-long brainstorming session on why I might actually want a baritone(???).
My band plays D/Drop C, and I write almost exclusively in D, so this might seem stupid at first. But I thought hey, it's just a normal guitar with 1.5 more inches (compared to my superstrat), and with the proper string gauge (probably 10-52s?) and setup it could easily play D/Drop C but with the added clarity and low end definition of a baritone. Basically, I'm looking for that added tightness.
Now, baritones having more low end clarity is - as far as I can tell, never having played one - just a fact. But does that trait only really become noticeable in tunings like B, Ab, G etc, or does it exist no matter the tuning? If it does, then I see no good reason to not get the 27 inch instead of the 25.5 and just set it up for the tunings I play. Even if the benefits aren't massive, I can't really think of any drawbacks.
There's a decent chance that I'll tune lower in the future, but basically 0 chance that I'll go back up to E standard (and if I have to, I have my other guitar still).
Obviously I mean that D standard is my HIGHEST tuning, and I may or may not drop to C#, C, etc. And while a normal scale length can play E standard, it definetely can't play like, Drop G (not without an extreme setup), which the baritone will gladly do. In both cases, a significant change in tuning will require new strings and a truss rod/intonation adjustment, so it's not like a baritone requires more work to do the same thing or anything like that (?).
I'm not really sure if my thoughts are making much sense, but I just want opinions, experiences etc, because I realise basically noone has thought o

Hello,
I am wondering what songs everyone would recommend for a male baritone vocalist? Iβm looking for something more rnb oriented that will be provide a good example of my vocal range, dynamics, etc.
I am looking to make a portfolio for my own personal self and songs like Nikes by Frank Ocean (see live unpitched version) seem technical enough that there seems to be an importance on vocal ability.
I will also be playing guitar and I have a strong background in playing string instruments so any songs that have strong instrumental potential Iβd appreciate as well.
TIA
I have been playing the standard uke for quite some time and want to move to the baritone ukulele. I mostly do finger picking and play solo. I have heard that we can transpose the tabs of a standard uke to a baritone if we move 5 frets ahead on the fret board.
Like if you were playing 2nd fret on a standard uke then playing the 7th fret on a baritone can work.
Is that actually possible??
