Wunderschön 😍👍

Solo lindo.❤

Very nice solo and arrangement.

beautiful performance!

Must das klein a sein. Letzte not erste lauf?....

It’s amazing song

Thank you so much from Japan

do you by any chance have a video of the first movement? your playing is absolutely fantastic, and i’d like to use it as a reference recording.

the best version, even with those background squeeks.

オケも鳥になりそうな位ゾクッて鳥肌立った…。 ジンとくる。

fantastic

melodious solo

Beautiful performance and beautiful arrangement

Does anyone know what was really making that squeaking noise? It sounds like someone had their tools and was fixing a big instrument or something...

I've listened to this fairly frequently - I love the performance - I never noticed that the crowd (?) response seems pretty muted. Was anyone there? Are they really hard to please?

Quite beautifully played (and conceived). Moving.

very good😭

best version! too bad about squaks

Beautiful tone Beautiful solo

¡precioso sonido de trombón!

ほんとにすごい

Thanks, Denmark. I love you guys. I really appreciate it.

Hello there, TRULY AMAZINGLY PERFORMED- I am currently studying for my diploma and haven't come across a player with such elegance! I am after the music of this movement 2 (and piano accompaniment too!) for a local slow melody competition and was wondering if you had any idea of where I could get this from??!

Or.. The moment he plays 'that' high C!

dat moment when he plays dat high c...O.O

Damn, this guy makes this solo arrangement sound so easy

Thank you Robert!

nice to hear you michael!

There are two ways of thinking of legato. The fast way like you said, or the Jay Friedman way that actually is slower.

whatever that dog gone awful squeaking scratching mouse in the microphone is ruined something miraculous and beautiful

Beautiful tone! Very natural.

the woman in the back plugging her ears needs a smack

I hate Michael Massong, he makes this piece seem so easy.

If a brass instrument tried to cut me with shears id be afraid too...

Absolutely Beautiful........

What the fuck are all those noises in the background!?! It's killing all the beautiful!

smooth, beautiful and clear legato, this is THE sound!

@trombonema: The legato is a combination of a really good air flow and a fast and accurate slide action all that with a very gentle tonguing. You see, its a bit complicated to explain here. Basically: Practise a lot and study with a really good teacher. What also helps is to listen to a lot of really great singers: Fritz Wunderlich, Jussy Björling, Elisabeth Schwarzkopf, Pavarotti and so on. Listen to them, hear what they do and try to copy that. That is what I did a lot. Good luck!

@CookmanT: It's a custom made Greg Black mouthpiece he made for me in 1994! About the size of a 4G but different. I am still playing on it and Greg is on working on a new one right now.

What mouthpiece did u use for this song?

Lol @3:49, the woman in the background cannot handle the shear awesomeness of the horn section.

Great job Michaell!! I hope to see you soon in somewhere!!

WOW

Very Beautiful !

With orchestra, it becomes more dynamic and dramatic! Very beautiful! Thank you very much from Japan!

Super Sound! Ich spiel auch Posaune; mit wie vielen Jahren hast du begonnen, Posaune zu spielen? Und wie lange spielst du schon? Klingt göttlich!

Que lindo sonido tienes Michael....me gusta mucho como tocas....

Herr Massong , ich wünsche Ihnen viel Erfolg mit der 1.CD !!! Ich bin auch Posaunist, studiere an HfMTKöln ( Klasse Prof. Ulrich Flad ). Wann geben Sie Ihre nächste Posaunenmasterklass in Deutshcland oder EU ? Freunliche Grüße, Oleksii Pavlenko

Danke, freut mich wenn es gefällt! Ich arbeite gerade an meiner ersten CD!

Unglaublicher Sound, BRAVO !!!
