Thank you, Maestro, for taking the time to work with young aspiring musicians. They are very fortunate indeed to have shared a playing space and workshop with you.

He’s so unbelievable, so skilled

The Master Marshall Gilkes

Thanks hes loking older but sounding even better,, the high notes flow nice together now

Virtuoso trombonista,bendiciones.

Music is an art, not a sport. Technical virtuosity is necessary to convey emotions, explore concepts and allow great creativity to flourish.

Incredible!!!

It seems to me that this concert is about the kids and Marshall Gilkes' masterclass to them, not a critique of Mr. Gilkes' perfomance. Let's remember what the othet contributor said. It's about the kids. Make sense?

MG is the Balls!

This must be a while ago because he’s still playing the Getzen not his new signature Shires.

As a trombonist of unbelievable brilliance I think Mr Gilkes tries to do too much at one t

I shall continue where I left off. He tries to do too much at one time. He has a phenomenal tone on the horn. Unbelievably brilliant musician.

This solo is high on chops - low on musicality. He could learn a lot about artistry from Bob McChesney.

Likes B flat major doesn't he......................................

I'm pretty sure the only reason he writes opening excerpts in mostly Bb is the fact that pedals on a peashooter that is standard for tenor trombones only reach from Bb to E, and even then the F# and lower are just not well speaking notes. His range is definitely not defined by key, he has a lot of cadenza recordings in other keys, this is just his most popular one

I don’t know the situation here, but this is disrespectful to the kids. It’s always about kids…period. If he wants the spotlight he should get his own gigs.

Thank you for watching. I'm band leader of this video"Fukuda-Gumi". I planed this live, choiced all pieces, and decided all solo spaces. All responcibility for this concert is mine. First of all, Marshall is great person. He is so polite and kind. As you know, he is one of the greatest trombone player. That time, he came to Japan as a member of Japanese Big Band. it is hard to believe, He didn't have any single solo. Japanese Jazz Fans, Trombone players wanted to see his Solos. So, as you said, it might be too match solos, but audiences need his solos like this. If you have time, please watch another video. The Canadian: kzread.info/dash/bejne/eaCdqsh8qJeXoNY.html This piece wrighten by band member, trombonist Ryo Otomo. It was great experience for us. It was good collaboration with him. Finaly, did you said band member as kids? Almost all member were over 25 year then.
