[Iamtubuler]

Wow So beautiful. God has given you much talent sir. Keep using it to praise him!!

[rmlojj]

Fantastic! Thanks and Blessed Christmas

[Iceman444443]

Oh yes Paul. I know your secret. You hit the high note at the end so, so clear like it was second nature. But alas, you had intervention from the man above. If you look close you can see the guy behind you (drummer?) raise his hands in the air apparently asking for intervention from the big guy exactly at the time you were going for the high note and he did disappoint on that high note. Excellent playing, great tone, simply worth the time to listen.

[paulchops]

Thank you for the kind words. ABSOLUTELY it's God that is the player. I just am His instrument to execute it !

[SnipeXmontage]

@paulchops best quote ever!!!! you should trade mark it before i take it :)

[MegaJmovies]

hey could you give me some advice on how to play long, slow songs without my chops busting? i'm having a real hard time playing slow songs especially when they start getting real high

[paulchops]

The best advice for endurance in general is keeping the lips buzzing at all times. There are many good exercises on that. Keeping a steady airstream, in control, with the lips buzzing will allow you to play more efficiently. It takes 3 to 6 months of daily practice at it, maybe 5 to 10 minutes a day before warmup. I am sure you can find more info on the web abut it. Also, I hear Roy Roman's teachings work well.

[dereckIamar]

youve got some chops man

[trumpetogal37]

beautiful playing!

your face looks like a tomato though. lol

[FitzHorns]

beatiful

[theuportis26]

That was very nice performance, do you have music sheet for it? I really like the how you played it.

[kathiemclair]

wow, like I haven't even seen you since we graduated high school. you always were the best trumpet player I know.

[wonka2006]

can you do that for me please?

[wonka2006]

This is great. I was wondering if there is sheet music available for it. I would really like to play this.

[paulchops]

hmmm..no sheet music at this time. It was pretty much ad-lib, a little different at each service. If I had other requests, I could notate the arrangement.

Thanks for the kind comments - Paul
