I play the double bass, electric bass, most brass instruments - with a preference for the low - and some other instruments, as well as sing (choir, á capella and solo). I know a fair bit of music theory and arranging, as well as some musical acoustics. I have a huge crush on musical instruments in general. My main focus is jazz and related genres, but I find myself in other contexts now and then.

Finding chords that match with single notes The chords used in the song are Dm, C, A, and Bb (in order of how often they occur). You'll have to figure out where/when each is used yourself as a homework assignment. :-) |

Could B♭ instruments be built in C? Why are they in B♭ in the first place? I believe you mean "Surely a slightly shorter instrument...". |

Converting to harmonic and melodic minor There's a terminology gotcha for people with another language than English as first language: In many languages (such as German, Russian, and the Scandinavian languages) the term corresponding to the english term "relative key" uses the native word for "parallel". |

Converting to harmonic and melodic minor I'm assuming you are simply trying to understand how the minor scales relate to the major scale in terms of flattened scale steps, regardless of key signatures and other theory. |

How do I stop a sensitive microphone picking up breathing when recording acoustic guitar? I understand that some modern producers want to record everything that is audible during the recording session, especially including breathing, in order to, as fully as possible, catch the live feeling and the artist's work. You could decide to be one of those ;-) |

What characterizes ragtime drumming? Just a note: Historically ragtime was played straight, and not with swung eigths or sixteenths. |

What is the best way to work on my fret hand finger independence? @Mick: You could probably gain from practicing troublesome note/fingering sequences using different rhythmical patterns as well. I was taught to do this by a piano teacher and found it very productive in terms of learning difficult fingering sequences. |

What is a transposing instrument? You should probably edit: guitar and basses are transposing at the octave, while tuba is not (in bass clef at least)! |

How to remove a rusted mouthpiece? @SamuelEGiddins: There might be, but haven't heard of it. Maybe someone else has. Perhaps you should add it specifically to your question? |

Why is it common to write tuba sheet music in concert pitch? I took the liberty of correcting some errors. Revert if you think I wronged you. |

Is it dangerous to sing an entire song in falsetto? I wouldn't think so. There are barbershop tenors that exclusively sing in falsetto. Also isn't the entire song Fantasy by Earth Wind and Fire sung in falsetto? |

Why is it common to write tuba sheet music in concert pitch? Most tubaists stick to one kind of tuba, or use one low (Bb or C) and one high (Eb or F) kind. So you seldom need to transition from C to Bb and if you do it's often a one time affair plus it's quicker than you'd think to relearn the music reading. |

How many (major and minor) keys are there? Why? @Luke: Why? Who set the standard? When? And what about G# being a key - this does not fit within 30! - as by the question I linked in the previous comment? Maybe there is no clear answer to these questions, but then I'd like to know that too. :-) |

How many (major and minor) keys are there? Why? What started my thinking was this answer as well as the question is G# major a real key. |
