GMC Forum _ PRACTICE ROOM _ Hello
Posted by: Mihai Sorohan Jan 7 2014, 11:47 AM
Hi
For some time I was keeping an eye on the lessons here but I'm new to this forum, so let me introduce myself.
My name is Mihai Sorohan and I'm a musicohoolic 
Actually I am a trumpet player and a guitar hobbyist/ enthusiast. Here are some really cool lessons, I especially like Stephane's jazz-fusion videos, very clear and easy to understand while quite complex on the theory/harmony/substitutions...etc.
Even if quite late for Christmas, I would like to show you one of my latest things I've done, a version of "Vitae Lux" composed by Frode Alnæs, me on trumpet, guitar and some of the keyboards:

Hello Mihai! Welcome to the forum! Listening to your song as I write this. So far it sounds very good!

So glad you decided to join GMC, my Romanian fellow 
Although we are only Facebook acquaintances, I can tell you are a very gifted musician and I appreciated your composition a big lot!
Let us know if you need help with anything and keep sharing the nice music!
Cosmin

Alright Mihai
See you around the forum and maybe you will be tempted to join a collab here: http://www.guitarmasterclass.net/guitar_forum/index.php?showtopic=50970&st=0

Way too many good musicians (yet never enough), feel a bit lost, but I might try. Thanks for the invitation.

That would be awesome Please don't treat it this way We are a full range of levels - from very beginner to advanced and that's the beauty of our collaboration - it doesn't matter what level You are. Also...being in Your shoes I don't think Your playing has anything to be a shame of
You can view our latest collabs mix. You can hear how different is the playing level but it all keeps a nice mood and is a great job from anyone involved
or the latest one:

Hey there, welcome to GMC. I played a bit of trumpet when I was younger.
As far as collabs go… the more people that join in, the more we get to hear different flavors added to the mix.

You have nice soloing stuff on your lessons, I'll keep an eye on you
hehehe the old trick!
thanks mate.

Darius is right GMC is a place in which collaboration is a word with many meanings - all leading to one common goal: Development for everyone. And let's face it, your playing is very good so you can definitely come up with something nice Looking forward to have you aboard mate!

We can start an improvised jazz horn band section.

GMC horn section...HOW COOL IT COULD BE !
Posted by: Mihai Sorohan Jan 10 2014, 01:29 AM
Now that's a cool idea.
Just think, you would make some jazz/funk/soul/blues lessons, but before, when you make the backing track, you send a MIDI with the line and tempo to the "GMC Brass Section" and you'll have your brass recorded live
Meanwhile, I have some free trumpet and brass loops that you could use if you want, see my sig.
Those are not really the best, were recorded with my old gear in a not treated room and I tried to hide the room reflections with a reverb, so... Well, as soon as my "music room" is ready I will make some new brass loops pack, mostly in E and A, for guitarists

Welcome to GMC :-)
Nice Frode Alnæs cover mate, great song :-)

These loop packs are popular enough out of what I know.. Have you thought of getting them featured in famous pluggin packs? Who knows - 'SoroHORNS' might sound like a cool pack name.

Thanks, I'm glad that you like my version.

Who knows - 'SoroHORNS' might sound like a cool pack name.For now I have some muted trumpet Kontakt patch and some other stuff, a http://tekit-audio.com/products/instruments/recsoprano/, a free choir patch with vowel morphing and my glockenspiel is featured in a high end hardware/software pack under a non-disclosure clause.
I will make a brass VSTi but not with loops, quite hard to fit them to everything, but of course for such nice and supportive community the "real deal" is a "must"

Wow! Looks like you are a very busy trumpet player
So, where are you actually living now, Mihai?
Posted by: Mihai Sorohan Jan 11 2014, 06:54 PM
Norway right now
Posted by: Cosmin Lupu Jan 12 2014, 02:08 PM
Do you live solely off music there, or you're into another field as well?
Posted by: Mihai Sorohan Jan 13 2014, 12:37 PM

Thanks. Cool community indeed
Teaching trumpet, conducting a brass band and playing in a jazz big-band. I still keep doing my thing, a little bit composing and "doodling music" which sometime ends up in games or short videos, nothing too fancy.
Now I want to pick up the guitar again and do something with this, make an album, have some collabs, you know, if you don't use a skill you'll soon forget it and lose it...

Amazing man!
I am really happy to hear that you are so active as a musician in a country which has such high standards in respect to life in general! This is how I see things from the outside, but maybe you can share more of the inside view
