he was also about 15 when this video was taken. 15 year olds can be pretty arrogant.
Trumpet players, doubly so.
However, I'd say the he wasn't playing it arrogantly as much as playing it rehearsed--he's been playing "the carnival" for awhile (among other things). At least we can agree that he is extremely talented.
Yeah, most people will agree that he is very talented. He has no style though. I've watched so many of his videos. Amazing virtuosity (I'd say so even if he was 10 years older), but his music is completely emotionless, rehearsed, and boring
This young man is amazing - I have been playing trumpet for over 50 years with some success but no where near the way this guy plays.
Ruben- don't listen to any of the negative comments - they are just jealous! Any one who can play the trumpet knows what a great performer you are.Keep it up - I look forward to hearing you in the future.
Well, this certainly isn't the best performance I've ever seen, but the most impressive thing is the high F at the end. When I play through this piece, I barely have enough energy to play a staff F, much less an octave higher. But everyone is built differently.
amazing..! good job ruben... kisses from venezuela..! i think that your way for play is fantastic..! i am trumpet player and i never seen something like this..! go on friend. i hope see you soon by here..! careful yourself..!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
He's great, but he has really bad sound at times, and he can't keep time at all. He's cracking notes like crazy at the end, because he's trying to play it too fast.
The tempo is because the orchestra wasn't following him. As for the "bad sound", what are you smoking idiot? This kid is one of the best trumpet players in the world at 15 years old. This guy motivates me to no end.
bravo Ruben;)..

Somebody was in a hurry on that last variation.
If you start that speed you gotta finish that speed!!! You can't suddenly stop double tonguing at the end.
Nice F at the end. I'm assuming you got that from Wynton.
Also, play with a better orchestra haha

seriously, all i see is talent.
I can't see any work, otherwise his timing and consistency would be flawless.
i can't say im better than him, but he is going to hit a roadblock when his talent dies out.

Thanks for a great rendition.
