[Trombone-l] Question

[Don Fitzsimons]

Absolutely.
   
  If I'm rehearsing something I'm somewhat familiar with, I practice with an entire band that exists only in my head.  Often, the phantom music even keeps my actual sound in balance.
   
  When I concentrate, in a live rehearsal, I imagine only the troublesome pitches for accurate placement and feedback.

Now, I'm wondering if the listers can hear their trombone playing in 
the same way. That is, listening to the language inside your head is 
called "silent speech." Can you listers also hear "silent music?"
