But why don't we talk about who Hugh was before he joined the program, before you became a painter back in Jackson Butler's business six years ago?

Yeah, it's honestly tough to think back that far ago as well.

I've gotten two degrees since then and I'm getting married at the end of the summer as well.

But it's funny when I think back to who I was at university, I was the kind of kid who had a really big engine.

So I was really willing to put in a lot of work and a lot of effort into areas that I saw a lot of return for myself personally.

So when I started out in university, that area was music for me.

And I really loved playing the saxophone.

And so how do you believe the skills that you've learned, you know, at StudentWorks are going to help with your career, Hugh?

But then if you then take a tube which picks out the frequencies nicely, you can get really lovely pure tone, so clarinets and oboes do that.

Now, if you take an instrument like a, a trumpet or a French horn, I've happened to have a horn here.

Now, if I take the, the mouthpiece off the French horn, this mouthpiece is only a, a few centimeters long, and if I start to blow into it, [horn sound] not a very nice sound.

But if I put that onto the horn, and the horn has now got a long length of tubing, and the tubing has its own harmonics.

[horn sound] So I can get the different harmonics, and depending on the shape of the instrument, you can get different types of harmonics.

So a trombone will sound a bit different from a trumpet, which will sound different from a tuba, and they're all just very subtly different.

And now we know how sound is produced by different instruments, how does that sound travel from the instrument or a singer, for example, to the listener's ear?
