[davtpt]

Mits, I'm amazed, I play pro trumpet and I play jazz/ Latin Recorder too, dude you're like my freakin hero!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanx...

[funcooldrew2]

i what form a band but one thing what does a bass guitar do?

[robbertzzzzz]

@funcooldrew2 Play the bass line

[spacecadet35]

@funcooldrew2 On your question on what does a bass do. The Bass links the melody to the rhythm. Usually it plays the beat of the drums but the root chord of the guitars and other instruments. Quite important. By the way, great playing guys; keep up the good work,

[racylaserjet]

@spacecadet35 The bass is also part of the rhythm section. Rhythm.

[rubiksdude555]

bad posture

[circular05]

Felt like I was watching a '60s Disney movie. Great stuff! I think the recorder is very well suited for this sort of music. It gives a very innocent, straightforward tone.

[rubiksdude555]

cool... lamest instument ever though do that on clarinet or trumpet then WOW!

[landielover]

[zxwater]

hhaha this is funny in a good way, ive never heard a jazz song like this on a recorder, this is cool, so is the bass

[drnebuloso]

This is crazy good.

[rtm22759]

[IRCHSVAPAJazz]

[TheMatzophon]

Thank you for playing such a good recorder! You´ll take it to an serious Jazz-Instrument. Great!!!

[chaughten]

wicked.

[mimism0m]

i can't even count how many times i've watched this. amazing enough just to play the recorder that well, then to have all those amazing licks. once i saw them play in their jazz band and on the sax it made more sense. this is one of the grooviest coolest things i've ever seen and heart

[jazzmanbd]

@mimism0m lol same here. ive prolly watched this video like 20 times

[skeetmoses]

DAMN! Shocking and good. If I hadn't seen it I wouldn't have believed it. Thanks

[minyou12]

I listen to this a few times a week.

[yasu2153]

素晴らしい。

小学生の頃吹いてたリコーダーとは思えない。

[LuzLuz718]

You rock!! I used to teach 3rd grade recorder. I wish I had this to show them how cool it could be!

[Fouceky]

Are you ever going to do another one? This was absolutely amazing and there is nothing quite like this on youtube. I would love it if you did another video.

[GingerJoberton]

Woah. I'm inspired.

[Twolinecrew]

Fucking amazing!

[Jawz1240]

can u put up the tabs 4 the bass PLEASE!!! i need them by Thursday! thanx! :)

[relampago21]

MAN! that was great!

show to these kid what a great instrument the recorder is

It's a shame that school has made it look less

[coolkid7006]

What a pointless instrument to be good at. Honestly sax isn't to hard and people actually want to play with you

[Narriz]

@coolkid7006 people actually want to play with you if you play ANY instrument good. Plus recorder rocks the world! :D Of course you can also use better sounding recorderds or different sizes but there is something shocking someone playing the plastic yamaha (or whatever) good

[hermanoguzman]

They made us try to learn he recorder in school. I didnt like it, i now play guitar, but am in interested in jazz flute or something along those lines

[funkmonstervirgil]

Damn dudes, start doin' this thing on every (^%^%^%*# crowded place and cash that money :D 

[LongRangeBullet]

Dude! Amazing job on the recorder

[kittykeh9306]

Jól nyomja a srác, de ez a fej.... XD

wááááááááá... de mókás! XD

[choperudo]

Y yo que pense que con esa cagada no se podia hacer nada.

[ipwnedanoob]

recorder win!!

[Tavernman06]

i am so glad i found this. those lines on the recorder are insane!!!!

nice bass groove as well.....

[chachacarrie]

@Tavernman06 , u said it man!

[davtpt]

Wow, I thought I was alone on the recorder ( trumpet player also ), you rocked dude, nice feeling like the true soca style....

[sacidragon]

[Bergunthera]

[jedimastert0810]

so FUN, just made me bounce up and down

[GuitarTrombone93]

awesome feel guys! great performance dude!

[wartree]

playing the recorder this way renders it one of the most difficult instruments to play

[vincenorman]

Completely killin' !!!!  WOW!!!

[PivotMAstAWalTRoNX1]

You, my man, have inspired many people to play their recorders after listening to this. It was a little bit screechy, but you can really make a difference when playing the recorder. It was very enjoyable and great to listen to this version of St. Thomas. Very, very inspiring and great.

[bruceleeC64]

a youtube classic!

[Lezzzandro]

Very nice man, beatiful job !

Showing all possibilities of this magic instrument !

Please, watch some of my videos, hope you enjoy.

[habibioidafux]

Hallodri!!! Where's my "stupid" old recorder?! I gotta do that thing! thx guys!

[jiangson]

OMG! this is so sweet! i totally want to jam with u guys now!

[allaboutdrum]

he dabbles

[goldcougar2k1]

I love this! I've never heard a recorder played like that before! The bass is super tight, too. If you haven't already done so, check out this guy's other vids. His band is ridiculous.

Also, 1:46 on the bass is insane.

[pepgui]

that's GREAT!!!

[domiven7]

bassist has great timing

[eggyapa]

I see a John Taylor of Duran Duran behind that Metronome! You guys need to get out of that bedroom and panhandle with just that song! You will be rich before the days end... Remember to dress appropriately and have a monkey run around and collect the tithings!

[BBN5A]

Awesome!!

[Vmacin1]

this is so original

[paweu22]

Well done!

[paweu22]

Well done!

[mattfreaknparker]

[emanu0675]

[paolo123495]

[thenomadsss]

tht boy can sure play recorder

[llttppkk]

and how he plays saxophon!!...watch this solo with balaton jazz orchestra!!

[whalio]

That is AWESOME!!!!!! Great tune and as a sax player and occasional RECORDER dabbler, I am blown away!

[d3clan01]

Amazingly good. I've never heard a recorder sound so good. Bass is great too.

[drumstyx6464]

@d3clan01 They sound even better when they aren't the middle school ones, and are therefore in tune. However, you're right, this sounds amazing!

[PSPGENIUS714]

Halifax.Nova Scotia,Canada

[fedricfull]

[articoci]

Nemtom elékszer megnézni!!! Jam Sessionon is szeretném ezt egyszer így hallani!!! :D

[iknowimsexy56]

Cool!

[PieterDave]

Never thought this...was possible with flute.....OMG, amazing

[GreatSquirrels]

@PieterDave thats a recorder

[minimarioman]

The recorder is from a family of flute called fipple flutes. Its probally why concert flute and tenor recorder sound so similair.

[UltraMN]

pwnd!

[palanzana]

bravusss

[allanikos]

Gr8 music. powerfull! Wow !:D I'm impresed...!

Alan - Poland

[tubeyouqwaszx]

[shiyakuhatikozou]

リコーダーとベースの相性がok！！

[myhanmei]

Recorder amazing ...

[TruAgape123]

Man you rock on that recorder!! I had no idea that instrument was capable of such character.

[LovesAFire]

... and I still think this is the shit. Man, who thought someone could be so killin on the recorder. You ever heard of that schitzophrenic musician who plays recorder out his nose? you should check em out...

[iulik101]

you are the best men!!!!

[xrongor]

how does he hit that high note at 1:49 and 2:04?

i've got most of it figured out but that one note...

[Bergunthera]

I'm still listening to this, because that thing you do at 0:13 is absolutely gorgeous! and the little lead in up to 0:14.. im almost tempted to recall my sax to life and work it out!

[TruAgape123]

I agree, I love that twitter at 00:13 too! I didn't notice it till you brought it out. The joys of listening to the same song over and over again.

[bovden94]

ez eszméletlen jó!

valami kottát tudtok mondani ehhez?

[coolloser4579]

LOL THATS AWESOME HOW YOU CAN TURN SUCH A CHILDISH (no offense to you recorder lovers) INTO A COOL JAZZ INSTRUMENT.and idk why that was in caps.... ♫=♥

[Bergunthera]

incredible, i never even imagined that that was possible

[ALJ029]

Loved it. Amazing

[Jyred]

Id say funny would be the right word. But it was very enjoyable, keep it up

[hirummy]

Brilliant!

[bebopifize]

nicely done fellas - and good improv through the changes.

[primean51]

I'm working on learning jazz recorder so I can one day surprise people with skill on that instrument, cuz noone expects much from it. You sir, have surprised even myself, who knows its a viable instrument. Excellent playing

[xrongor]

yeah its great to whip out some watermelon man from some kids school recorder you find at someones house and watch peoples minds blow. i say watermelon man because its 10 times easier than what this guy is laying down... but it still has wow factor.

this is some great playing! inspired me to dig out my old recorder chart so i could get the full scales working again.

[letterbekmen]

Ez Hatalmas nagy!!

[Anshikuu]

that was simply unbelievable.

[XxDatBlonde1xX]

i know this tune from gta xD

[chickenwang1122]

that's great, never heard a recorder sound so good.

bass is great as well, i play a watered down version in my jazz improv class. haha

[4shio]

素晴らしい！！

最高にイカしてます！

[oliveirandarilho]

Thank you. I look at this video over and over for weeks :)
