Canadian Brass, Penny Lane with Brandon Ridenour, Great American Brass Band Festival

[abcinbc]

The camera work is far too shaky for my total enjoyment, the Canadian Brass of course are always enjoyable, especially Brandon on his Piccolo Trumpet in this instance.

Too bad this festival did not use a proper sound stage, the background noise detracts from the overall sound quality.

Absolutely beautiful. 

[hypoheinz]

man, hold the camera still :D

[hypoheinz]

but thank's for filming at all ;-)

[Trapper855]

Another amazing performance....enjoy!

[pohatyam]

1:53 is just unbelievably good

[RGCRANMAN]

I saw all of them in concert, got s signed CD, and had a lengthy convo with Joe. ...loll XD

[poultryhugger]

owch.

[poultryhugger]

Man, I can't play anywhere close to that good, but every trumpet player would look better holding his trumpet higher!

[mhenrikse]

@poultryhugger - I suggest you don't go to a Nakariakov concert.

[DasSneakyGerman]

@poultryhugger Holding the trumpet too high could stretch out the abdomen and compress the spine which makes it hard to breathe efficiently.

[poultryhugger]

@DasSneakyGerman I personally hold mine ~5 degrees lower than level, I've noticed that it's the best spot to get a balance between air and a stiff neck :P

[brassperfectionist]

coletti is better



[GrumpyPeon]

@brassperfectionist lol wrong.

[Ibanez3789]

Man, Brandon is a beast. Definitely one of the premiere players in the business nowadays.

[trompetemiguel]

[canosgmk]

[65strad]

Brandon is a monster, so is Joe for that matter, as was Jens and Ronnie, and last but not least Fred RIP

[reidcore]

[shootthewaffle1]

I love the face the picilloist? made when he mesed up. At least we know he's normal.

[gretchenne]

[CaptainQueue]

Very, very few trumpet players could ever accomplish this piccolo virtuosity. Bravo. An amazing achievement.

[andreidavidcandrianu]

very nice piccolo solo...great sound on that yamaha piccolo...

[andreboogie]

Nice but too fast in my opinion.

[reidcore]

1:22 is not sounding too well with the trombone.

i was in a master class with the new trumpet player. he is amazing.

[Spdres]

@reidcore Nothing wrong with that part.
