That 1st trumpet - amazing! Looks like he was playing trumpet before he learned to breathe! But not just him - what an amazingly talented group of musicians all around! Loved this performance!

THe only reason it looks so effortless is because he's so efficient as using his air, and he's likely worked his tailend off to get where he is. Gorgeous playing!

@@ryangreenberg1194 there is effort... I’ve known personally a few wünder-players, and if they tell you there’s “no pressure”/“effortlessness”, they’re lying, or joking with you. “The trumpet charges daily” for good abilities on it, Dizzy Gillespie said that in an interview. The truth of the matter is that there is basically no inefficiency or “strain” in his playing, his technique is so extremely developed, and his gear is meticulously balanced with exacting specifications to how and what he plays. He is patently NOT playing a “stock” Bach horn, nor are the exact mouthpiece specs he uses public info or available. Sure, you can buy his GR Signature mouthpiece, but is that likely the exact same dimensions as the pieces he uses... for some reason, I’m doubtful! ;) Think you can get the exact same Bach horn setup he’s using... Dream on! :) Amd even if you did, you’re not him, so while his setup might be useable, you’ll likely not be able to do with it what he can. A “high” C for Louis is not a “high” note at all... moreover, likely feels as easy to him as a “middle” C or G feels for other players. He truly is playing “effortlessly” till he’s playing at least an octave higher than most other players can. :D He’s NEVER playing at the thresholds of his chops, because he doesn’t overblow, likely never goes over 75-80% max volume on a gig, he’s usually on a mic, he rarely uses mutes. He doesn’t hurt himself to play any of his notes, he’s built himself up on rock solid fundamentals and had a great upbringing into the scene, I’m sure he’s played amazing jobs with great musicians, has had lessons and hangs with many the world’s top jazz and commercial players, and makes friends with musicians who are similarly obsessed with making great music. I’m a decently skilled professional player, and I feel I start to “work” around high Bb-high C. I top out at a finessed “high” (double) G, occasionally “reaching” with some strain for an Ab now and then. I have no more than a few of those in the tank each day, on an average day. I am pretty much hurting myself a little every time I play one. So I try to save them. I rarely gig with regularity, and I’m often not in top chop shape, but always try to play as if I am. Louis’ technique, gear setup, and efficiency likely allows him not only an octave (or more) above that,and with a better sound(!), but he could play well into the double range on every tune of any 1-4 hour gig. My congratulation to Louis, thank you for being so damn good at what you do, relieving the pressure on us “mere mortal” players of having to do these things! You’re sharing your virtuosity and kind spirit with many people, and inspiring my generation and those coming up to play the world’s most difficult and treacherous instrument.

It's unfair how easy he makes it sound haha

I love everything this guy puts out it sounds so clean and it's never too cheesy keep up the great work

honestly, this is my favorite one you have made so far, you are so talented, and I wish I could be as good as you, I thank you for giving me something to stride for Louis.

My new favourite channel! Your sound is incredible! The whole band is sooooo tight and on point. Maynard meets Morrison, meets Rob McConnell and the Boss Brass. Thanks for making my day!

Awesome Louis!!

I love all the trumpet shots (both solo and trio). Definitely going to try to play my way through this one; this just made my day, and it's only 11am.

Amazing! Just, amazing! That embouchure! The chops!!

Awesome arrangement.....Great chops Louis!!! More! More!

Incredible breath control!

Great arrangement and playing. Just awesome.

I check in from time to time to see if you have any new projects posted, and today I was not disappointed :) You're a model for me as well as many others. Keep it up!

Why do I love this so much? Not only the fact that it's Disney but that they play it so well.

One word: How. I don't believe you only have 100k subs, you should have 100,000,000 subs! You are actually insane. Thank you so much for this music.

True artistry displayed in a most difficult medium. These instruments are very difficult to play in such wonderful balance. This my friends is music extraordinaire.............

That's awesome that you're learning to play trumpet! Just make sure your time on mutes is limited! Heres why: it's super easy to get your lips all beat up without realizing it since the mute is so quiet. I wouldn't play a practice mute for more than five minutes at a time to be on the safe side. You'll have to find a place to practice or just embrace practicing with neighbors next door, I've heard stories of people's articulation on trumpet getting messed up because they rarely practiced without a mute!

Elecro Hillkill he must have missed a note. Its impossible for a human to play that high, even with a piccolo trumpet. For most people their hearing ends around 16k-18k Hz. A quadruple C on a trumpet is only 7.5k Hz and I know that there has never been a recorded quadruple C. Let's say you were to use a piccolo trumpet. They're one octave above a typical trumpet. Let's say that someone could play a quadruple C and they did it into a piccolo trumpet. That would be a quintuple C but even that is only 15k Hz.

That is awesome

very sweet sound in the lower register too.

YES I LOVE THIS!!!
