That was just mind-blowing. I'm practicing this piece for an audition, I thought I was playing it pretty well, not great, but good. Then I saw this video and was just like, whoa, I have a lot more work to do than I thought! XD Sounds amazing, beautiful tone, excellent vibrato, and just over-all great playing. I'm going to aim to sound like this, because if I set a high goal for myself, even if I don't reach it, I'll still do better than if I set a low goal. Thank you for playing so wonderfully!
It's phenomenal how his tone sounds so full and open no matter the range. It's not too harsh when he's hitting the pedal tones - fantastic control! At the same time, his high notes just seem to float with such stunning clarity and openness. It's monumentally challenging to play like this, and this man is fantastic at playing the way he does!
This sounds wonderful. We are playing this in our High school Symphony Band. Instead of having a trombone soloist, we have a euphonium playing the solos.
I will take a beautiful tone like his over a fast passage any day..I'm playing this piece in two weeks and I was playing Allegro moderato section way to fast....Great Job Man
He is indeed an amazing trombonist and brassplayer. I had the honour to attend a masterclass with him 2 months ago (I play the trumpet, and he was teaching the trombones) and he has such a great philosophy concerning the mental state of brass playing and different techniques to control focus and anxiety. He is currently the solo trombonist in Sønderjyllands Symphony Orchestra of southern Denmark. I had alot of fun with him, and we had a lot of beers and just had a good time...
Don Immel was a guest artist on this concert. At the time of this performance, he was the principal trombonist of the Honolulu Symphony Orchestra. I believe he now is playing for an orchestra in Europe.
he makes it look so easy.

The allegro moderato chunk of this piece calls for 104mm. Most people take it too fast and I think he sounds perfect at his pace (around 108)
