to those bitching about "out of tune" "not right key" etc etc .... this is "echo TAPS" meaning two horns. usually the second horn player is several (50yards or so) away. this gives the echo effect when played in a "round" and also masks any slight intonation discrepancies. perfect pitching two horns in a slow duet is extremely difficult due to horn manufacture ,player,slide adjust etc....this isn't a les paul. mad these 2 Marines played at a greater distance you would never hear the off-sync overlaps due to sound travel speed and how you hear sound. good job Marines!

Thank You so so much because I am a 7th grader in band and i joined in 6th grade and i play the trumpet and my grandpa is a veteran and at his funeral he wants me to play the Taps. Also this is very touching knowing two US Marines are playing this. good job you two.

You can feel the meaning of this song only if you have served the army,so emotional...

I love how well they are listening to each other, working with one another to sound like one voice. That, right there, is the key component of a true musician.

I will always have much respect and admiration for our soldiers who defend us, our way of life, and keep us free. We owe them everything! Thank you for this excellent video.

For all the people whom fell during the 9/11 attacks. May you all rest peacefully. We haven't forgotten.

Outstanding rendition, Marines.

Who the hell disliked this? this is a song when a fellow Marine or Navy Seal dies. He/she dies for our country and this shows respect for them.

fantastic ! thank you very much. 감사합니다~

Absolutely beautiful, thank you to all our Men and Women who sacrifice their lives, and May God Bless Them & Their Families, in Jesus Name. Amen! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

We live in the greatest country in the world with great people as exemplified by the two USMC soldiers in this moving tribute to their fellow, fallen warriors.

Outstanding! I hope more people hit this page!!!! Ooorah! MJ

There will always be a United States Marine Corps

This music always give me bumps.

This is the video that just made me choose to play trumpet for my first year of middle school in a month

Beautifully done!

for those wondering this is called Taps Echo.

Solid Gold. Godspeed, Marines.

Detail Marines, Hold the Salute to the west no matter where you are I still remember, and freeze my body while Taps plays. Semper fi

Lovely sound. Exactly the key I play Taps in and Ab and Bb are exactly the keys to play Taps in

Rip my father he was a Marine I remember he would tell me stories of when he was in the military and he died at the age of 38 I remember the TAPS and when they were folding his flag and they gave it to me

Respect to all who have served thank u

Tis this day that we honor and that the soldiers may Rest In Peace and may have eternal life and good ness and mercy will fallow them forever

Complete agreement. A Marine has never has been a soldier. They are, and always "will" be, The few, the proud, the UNITED STATES MARINES !. Semper Fi! Thanks for your service!

You can play Taps on any valved instrument with the same valve pressed down and jumping between M3rds, P4ths and P5ths. "Easy", but one of the most heart wrenching things to play at a serviceman's funeral. I know from experience.

I play trumpet and I thought this was awesome. Y'all don't have to go around saying they're out of tune, because they are in fact in tune. This is for enjoyment... Not hate mail... They're heroes, and who in their right mind would want to hate on a hero?

Thanks, Brothers. 🇺🇸☝️ 😎😎🙏📹🎺🎺🎵🎵

Brings me to tears every tim semper fi

As do I, but these men are NOT soldiers, they are Marines... and yes there is a difference. Respect to all who serve... ... and ooorah 1rst Marines! S/F

played in the key of F, Strong work!!!

beautiful this is for you coisen

taps was written during the time when open (no valve) bugles were used, for signals in warfare, as well as in ceremony. Because of this they can only change notes in the natural overtone series.

Thanks to KZread I borrowed this dual solo just to illustrate the story.

When I played trumpet in High School,the instructor mentioned that you can make a B-flat trumpet play as a bugle by holding down the first and third valve.

Hooorah to my fellow fallen Marines! RIP

Simple yet awesome

Anytime there's a F in the chat moment, I play this.

Taps is a bugle call. Bugles are traditionally in the key of G. I assume but of course don't know that they are trying to simulate that by holding down the 1st valve.

Hey, they got the melody right, which is pretty uncommon these days. But still... Army Regulation 220-90, Army Bands dated December 2007, Paragraph 2-5h(1) states the following: "'Echo Taps' or 'Silver Taps', the practice of performing 'Taps' with multiple buglers, is not authorized. 'Echo Taps' is not a part of Army tradition and improperly uses bugler assets." Army Regulation 600-25, Salutes, Honors, and Visits of Courtesy, dated September 2004, Glossary, Section two states the following: "Taps The traditional 'lights out' musical composition played at military funerals and memorials. The official version of 'Taps' is played by a single bugle. In accordance with AR 220-90, 'Echo or Silver Taps', which is performed by two buglers, is not authorized." Field Manual 12-50, U.S. Army Bands, dated October 1999, Appendix A, Official And Ceremonial Music, Appendix A, Section 1 - Ceremonial Music, Paragraph A-35 "A-35. Signals that unauthorized lights are to be extinguished. This is the last call of the day. The call is also sounded at the completion of a military funeral ceremony. Taps is to be performed by a single bugler only. Performance of 'Silver Taps' or 'Echo Taps' is not consistent with Army traditions, and is an improper use of bugler assets.

Peace and Love

Rest well Daddy.

real story of taps happened in 1862 during the civil war.It is during the night a catatain hears a soldier moaning crying out in the field. He can't take it any and decides to retrieve him.He drags him back the moaning solder is dead. He takes a lantern him and see's he is a confederate, the shock it is his son wow. His son had been studying music in college when the war broke out. His Dad did not know he enlisted. He asked for a military funeral was denied. He was allowed to have one musican

What beatuiful tone.

imagine a night of war and you think you lost and then you here this song play

Luv it

Isn't Taps traditionally played in the key of G? (3rd valve down for melody)

Respect aux Marines

@jerryboy219 actually its kind of higher playing it open....

@trumpetsownu94 How does the key make it wrong? Very few people have perfect pitch, so melodies are remembered by intervals rather than actual notes. Personally I like to play it with 3rd valve for the richness of tone.

@blogger1947 I know for a fact one of theme is not. One of them does look like a bach but I assume they are just student trumpets.

It really is very melodious. 😀😷🐠🐟🐍🐊🐆🐎🐄🐂🐘🦋

Bugle calls are almost always done on a B flat trumpet in the military and when Army trumpet players go through the Armed Forces School of Music they are trained to play all bugle calls "open".I suspect the same is true for the Marines.Most players who don't play open like their chances better with a different valve combo.As an interesting side note - echo taps is actually against Army regulations and with the number of veterans who don't receive live taps is seen as a misuse of bugler resources

Semper fi my brothers and sisters

There are G Bugles with 3 valves. But you are right those are Trumpets.

Semper Fi, brothers. Sleep well, wherever you are.

Depends on the tone of the instrument. Mine is all open, my kids is first valve.

God Bless America

Esta música me faz lembrar de alguns amigos que se foram.

Damn right!

rip to all Fallin marines and god bless you

to perform at the funeral . He played the song that was written by the dead solder---the Dad found the song in his sons uniform-wow wow wow woo freaky

I can play "Taps" but I don't really know if I play it like that...

You can Start on many notes G, or F, or even, D you can also play it with a mix of D, G,B,C So pls dont judge this is the military your correcting they fight for your freedom i think they can play Taps how ever they want to play taps

This is beautiful, yes. But just for contrast, take a listen to "Taps for Maynard." It's a whole new way of thinking about the traditional sound.

But I thought the traditional Bugle was in the key of G? Not F#?

You can hear it when they go to the same note that one of them it flat. But then they adjust it quickly with their embouchure. Those are trumpets though. :P Bugles don't have valves. You can also see the one on the left moving his slides to change the pitch. You just have to have an ear for it. You're correct about them playing in harmony though. But you can be sharp or flat on any instrument. Anything from the temperature to the mouthpiece itself can change it. I wasn't bashing them. :P

nice tuning! wow

like a boss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wo kriegt man die noten von dem stück

ALL branches, not just the Army.

Please correct me if i'm wrong but isn't this suppose to be played only if someone has died? Our group always (well the trumpet soloist does at least) Plays this at our memorial day concerts to remember and honor the fallen soldiers.

Semper Fi, OOHRAH!

question? no offense to anything but why is the first valve down? traditional you do not use valves for taps, like it is done on a bugle.

You also play it at the end of the day but it looks like high noon.

Thumbs up!

Sleep well my brothers

i wish my marching band was in tune like they are...

no problem, (took me ages to learn transposition)

No they are playing in harmony. You can only do that with trumpets. Those are not bugles.
