Hi there!
Most people get a very brief crash-course on how to care for their instruments in beginner class, but not many people get any kind of refresher course after that. Even professional players struggle with proper care and maintenance! This video is meant to be a deep-dive into the wonderful world of French horn care, but it is also relevant for anyone who is interested in brass instrument care and lubrication. These things can be applied to any member of the brass family: trumpets, horns, trombones, euphoniums, tubas, and any of the other freaky instruments I left out. :) I didn’t include anything about piston valves in this video, but if that is something you’d be interested in, please leave me a comment!
This video will explore the following topics:
What products to use for slides, rotors, & bearings
The difference between the various products marketed for brass instruments
How to properly lubricate slides
How to properly lubricate rotors & bearings
I will also talk about my personal favorite products: valve oil & rotor oil, tuning slide grease & slide gel, and my passionate love for Hetman lubricants!
Learning how to care for your brass instrument is super important, so I have attempted to make this video entertaining and to break it down into easy, bite-sized sections for you.
Also, I am just a SUPER NERD for all things repair and maintenance! I know, that’s probably really strange to some people, but hey! What can I say? I am a bit weird. :p
So, whether you are here for the low-down on French horn maintenance, an overview of the proper care of brass instruments in general, or want to majorly nerd out with me over Hetman rotor oil, WELCOME! And enjoy! :)
