@jevonj77 I guarantee you Adam could easily play up to the double C that Arturo plays in his version. This version just shows how classy Adam is as a musician, he doesn't need to be a showboat about the national anthem (which way too many singers do already). He focuses on beautiful tone and pitch accuracy rather than screaming high notes, which I think defines him as a much more mature musician.
@strife181 but isn't the high register what Adam is known for? Isn't that what brought him there to perform at that event in the first place? While he did play nicely...I was disappointed to NOT hear anything special this night...what Arturo did not many could do...what Adam did on this night is replicable by many...many trumpeters around the world. But I dig your perspective on the whole thing...maybe that's what he was thinking.
@jevonj77 No, they brought him in because the Cowboys, up until 1989, had a trumpet player by the name of Tommy Loy, play the National Anthem at Texas Stadium. Since it was the last game ever at Texas Stadium, they wanted to honor the tradition. Having known Tommy personally, he would have been pleased with how Adam handled it. I love Arturo as a jazz player but he just does overkill on the National Anthem. If anything was special, it was the way it played. That is, the right way.
@TMNoob3 Actually it's brushed. It's not like what Jason Harrelson does and completely digs into the horn. Dave brushes it very lightly so when they go to plate it, it wears better. From far away it looks like satin. Satin finishes are horrible because the plating is very inconsistent: the bead blast creates about twice as much surface area, so the wearing can progress in some parts of the horn faster than others. I own several Monette Mouthpieces and a Prana horn....it's all the same.
@TMNoob3 It's cool man. Not as many horn makers brush their horns because it makes it harder to correct if and when the plating starts to fade, and the same goes with bead-blasted (satin) finishes. Clear lacquer or polished silver/gold will always be the most durable plating options because they're fundamentally longer-lasting and can be repaired as needed. But brushed horns look pretty badass up-close...
@KH2fanatic2010 Hey dude I am pretty sure he is playing on a Monette Trumpet. That is theway at least it looks to me. Most of their mouthpieces look that way. Look it up and tell me what you think.
No..you only put your hand across your heart during the "Pledge of Allegience" Not doing the National Anthem. I don't know who started this but older people know the truth.
@girltant Oh, are you world famous musician today? Not an MMA fighter? Not a college student? Not a 40-year-old with a beautiful wife, 2 kids, and a 6-figure income? What's the matter, got tired of typing "nigger nigger nigger" to black players, knowing you'll never have to back it up? Nah, don't worry, you're not one of the biggest losers and pussies that this world has ever seen. I'm sure you also were signed by Miles Davis, worked for Barry White, and have sold more than 75 millions albums.
@girltant Hey, racist douchebag, have you called any black athletes "nigger" lately? We know you are wayyyyyyy too much of a pussy to do it to their faces. Anonymous racist epithets, wow, you are so tough....

@girltant just going to throw it out there....they play different music. by a classical standpoint, rapa has a much better developed tone rather than sandovals harsh tone...but he dont play classically..neither of them do..so..yeah. hush. and kenny g isn't a trumpet player...so..yeah...learn yourr instruments, please/
@bhgblackmamba1 haha do you think that if arturo sandoval were told to play like rapa he couldnt do it!?!? of course he can. hes one of, if not THE and yes i mean THE greatest trumpet player of all time. I know the man, i have witnessed him live and he can do it all. and people were just trying to state how great kenny g was in these comments. Just trying to clear all of that up, because kenny g is terrible.haha
At least he stays in the same key unlike Christina Aguilera who changed keys several times. Not to mention she FORGOT THE LYRICS!!!! Its the national anthem on live t.v. You don't forget the lyrics.
@KrummyBear "C 4 ledger lines above the staff." A C? 4 ledger lines? Above the staff? So a G? I think you should learn how to read music before you post.
@KrummyBear Yeah, and Rapa plays it with much more ease and control. You obviously haven't heard the guy play. There's a reason he is all over ITG and conferences across the world.
@phen0men0n No, it really isn't too bad that I missed him at all.. Allen Vizzutti is going to be there this year, and as I stated before, Adam Rapa has boring as hell tone.
@KrummyBear Yeah man, as long as boring as hell means perfect characteristic sound out of the instrument. Sandoval's mariachi and crass tone makes me cringe. At least the Vizz can play some classical stuff and sound good.
I'm guessing you're more of a Maynard fan than a Wynton fan?
@phen0men0n No, Wynton Marsalis is one of my favorite jazz trumpet players of all time. His classical stuff is too self indulgent for me... But yes, I do love maynard and wayne bergeron.. You'd be stupid not to. Rapa has no musical identity. He is like the Kenny G of the trumpet. It's not distinctive at all. His tone isn't crass, nor is it mariachi. He played the arutunian for arutunian... He has classical tone as well.. You're ignorant.
@KrummyBear He has the perfect characteristic sound of the instrument, damn near as good as Andre's. It would be ignorant to believe otherwise. Rapa's control in every aspect of the instrument puts him light years ahead of most other contemporary professional artists. You obviously haven't heard the guy play very much.
The Kenny G of trumpet would be Chris Botti, by the way.
If he emptied his spit valve, it would have muffled his sound. ( Which it clearly didn't) He noticed himself out-of-tune and fixed the problem. I mean come on, who empties their spit valve twice?
Arturo sandoval was good. Although I don't think you can say either one was better than the other... One was jazz, the other was more classical... But which one did I like better. Arturo all the way
Arturo sandaval was good. Although I don't think you can say either one was better than the other... One was jazz, the other was more classical... But which one did I like better. Arturo all the way
@FunkafizeProductions Someone had a video up of Al Hirt playing the anthem and it was probabaly the best version I have ever heard. Yes, he did jazz it up but, it was so good!
@tonyroman100 What??? Why do you think this guy blows?! Is it because it's literally what he is doing? Or did you mean that in a criticizing sort of way? :P
@tonyroman100 Sorry he's not blasting out notes like an over rated jazz musician, such as arturo. This is more traditional, with much less screaming and show-boating, that doesn't make him bad.
@TMNoob3 correct. when you get older and decide to play in a symphony say and you earned say the 3rd chair for trumpet. your ass is staying there for a long time because there is no audition to advance chair seating. you are guaranteed to keep your chair though untill you quit.
@tonyroman100 yea you are right, arturo all the way for not being better then adam, adam does blow his trumpet really good, your sorry for the fans of adam because they have to deal with guys like you.
@disgaea03majin It's pretty hard to go an octave up when you are playing in the key Adam is playing in. This is more of a key that you want to keep in it's regular octave, or else it just sounds bad.
Beautiful tone....but I agree, he played this solo too safe. BORING!! Very rich tone though....but again VERY BORING!!!!
LETS GO JESSE MCGUIRE!!!!!!! Check out his trumpeting of the same piece at the DiamondBacks World series game (not sure of the year, mayb 2002?!?) ....best ive seen.

@TMNoob3 correct. when you get older and decide to play in a symphony say and you earned say the 3rd chair for trumpet. your ass is staying there for a long time because there is no audition to advance chair seating. you are guaranteed to keep your chair though untill you quit.

I was hoping for the high notes like the one Arturo Sandoval did during the Orange Bowl...but it didn't happened.

@disgaea03majin It's pretty hard to go an octave up when you are playing in the key Adam is playing in. This is more of a key that you want to keep in it's regular octave, or else it just sounds bad.

Beautiful tone....but I agree, he played this solo too safe. BORING!! Very rich tone though....but again VERY BORING!!!!
LETS GO JESSE MCGUIRE!!!!!!! Check out his trumpeting of the same piece at the DiamondBacks World series game (not sure of the year, mayb 2002?!?) ....best ive seen.

It's not the equipment, it's the player. It doesn't matter if you're playing on a Monette or a Jupiter. A good musician can make anything sound good.
