YAMAHA Trumpet Contest 2009 Finale

[miamicelebrations]

FIRST we need to buy him clothes, and raise money for a haircut in the meantime he can continue studying. Good job but there is a lot of room for improving .. I like him for taking the step of being where he is... but needs more time and dedication ... he can be good. keep it up

[BRassquintett]

good ears, great ideas and spectacular virtuosity!

[Nabokov50]

wouldn't you want to be in pretty much total control of every note before you played something that difficult? at least in public.

[zachthetubaattack]

you could only talk bad to this guy if you were in the new york or chicago philharmonics otherwise most of yall dont know anything about this. i would love for one of you negative people to play this :) fyi from a tuba player right nyah

[hebrewhammershabbat]

@zachthetubaattack In my opinion, being in NY or Chicago phil doesn't really give you the right to talk about some guy's solo over a bebop tune.

[ilovejazzzzzz]

why is everyone saying this is bad, c'mon it's bebop, it's meant to sound fast and un-emotional like that, this is the style in which Dizzy Gillespie played. Just because you don't like it, doesn't mean it's not good :P

[hebrewhammershabbat]

@ilovejazzzzzz I wouldn't say be-bop is supposed to sound un-emotional. I'd say Clifford and Parker and the like were able to put emotion into their solos and still play the style.

[zo0604]

ok all you guys downing this person lets see you put up a video...if you only knew the skill it took to even get anywhere near this maybe you would not look like a jackass. you're video rocked man!!!

[sebijin]

@zo0604 I agree but here's a video if me playing a trumpet solo and I'm only 15.

Oh yeah by the way the back beat is mine and original as well.

[tjc197]

How is this bad? Haha, it's great! Great trumpet, great piano! Great ears and communication! How could you think this is bad??

[789cu]

In his defense, the video audio quality isn't that great.

[AlexCrawdad123]

I don't get why people say this is bad...? I think this is freaken sweet. No, it's not an emotion filled solo but i think it's suppost to point more toward the skill of the player, which is very high.

[tpstrat14]

holy fuck. i gotta write this oomment quick before i have to listen to another second of this. this is just horrible. oh my god

[thebigcheez111]

he's pretty good but not as good as u would hope for a finale

[barliman2001]

@thebigcheez111 Well. he didn't win.

[Bosh1997]

@thebigcheez111 okay then you play something better. and make a video response. i dont think you can play better then this guy. if you can then you have to right to criticize but if you cant then you dont.

[pianojazz1]

So ein unmusikalischer Zirkus, sorry!

[euphoniumification]

Thats pretty good double tonguing.

[number1trumpet]

@yournumbingvacation He's not bad but unfortunately "double tonguing" is not what it's all about. Check out any of my videos for a lesson in playing with FEELING.

Go ahead now...

[neilo11]

@number1trumpet dude you seriously have issues, it sounds like you\re capturing geese with a vacuum, and some retard hits the cymbal in the background

the only thing im FEELING from your half assed ego-stroking garage band is sick my friend, sick

[JazzTurkle]

@neilo11 Yes indeed! Mr 'number1trumpet' truly is a useless cock! -so useless that even in a 'useless cock' competition he would almost definitely come last! 'FEELING'...?- more like an annoying itch.

[MrSk84money]

...i couldnt play that if my life depended on it... and ive been playing for 3 years...

[Maximlian17]

OMG! Thats fucking good! He's a real man of Jazz!^^

[IchProduction]

pretty good!

[burnistone]

HONS HONS BLEIB DO!

[TrumpetmanBerni]
