Kevin, this is one of my most favorite video figuring out after 25 years stopping playing trumpet sawing this one opened my eyes completely thanks a lot. Your are one of the best lead trumpet players i ever heard. Thx a lot
Effortless ! I've had my share of high note playing. I use a lot of air and seem to get high notes but it is always a struggle. I can get up there but once I am there... I don't have any flexibility. The more I see and hear these amazing trumpet players the more I see that once they finish playing the notes....they don't seem to be out of breath. There is something to their approach which I find amazing. Smarter and not harder is the key. Absolutely right.
i love the comment about the pinky ring being broke off and the guy saying no pressure so funny. saw airmen of note live it was amazing i wish i could get trumpet lessons from these guys you guys are great
Deus me deu a honra de tirar uma foto com o Brian sexta feira aqui em Brasilia DF hoje me sinto realizado obrigado Sr Macdonald vocẽ é sun real kkkk vida longa que nosso bom Deus te conserve assim.
Anyone get teethmarks on inside the lip after playing high rage a while ? I get to a below double c and have pretty good endurance but I feel I am not getting it completely right. I know not to jam the horn in my face but it is inevitable going up. Relaxation is key with fast air using stomach as pressure. Still looking for that "AHAAAA" revelation.
See if you can follow the breathing stuff that Jim talks about. Also, the MF horns are very large and require a lot of air. I used one throughout HS and college. It was a large bore with a 51/4 inch bell. It was very difficult to blow above high C with a standard embouchure. Will be difficult above G for you. You might want to consider a smaller-bore horn. I changed to a Callichio ML and it made a huge difference.
Amazing! Too much information to digest in one viewing. Will watch this several times. I didn't catch the type of Jim's horn. Does anyone know what he plays? Wow!!!🎺
Damn he is amazing, hehe that was really funny, "I have no friggin idea" when he is talking at the begining, is it bad to take a lot of air or did he just mean on his horn.
Yes, and very few do it the correct way and even less teach this. After 15 years of pushing I finally got to know I need to change everything what I learned .
I met Jim before. I asked him "what's your range?" he's like... "um about a triple C" i was thinking to myself "this guy is full of shit" he took me back stage and showed me.
@jazzanova68 playing high notes is not in itself great playing, it would be fortunate that not everyone could play this way as the world would be full of unmusical screaming. It's HOW you play the high notes that makes a great player. No style, no soul, no good no matter how high!
8 years, no agreement. There's your answer. but to be fair, you can't judge from a phone-cam recording. Sit in the back of an auditorium and have them play each horn playing lead with a big band, then you can make an accurate judgement. Some horns' sound doesn't carry well due to the amounts of highs and lows in the sound.
There IS a lot of validity to what Jim is teaching, not taking in so much air, etc. something to work on for sure. Last I heard Jim had Bob Reeves copy an old Giardinelli MF MPC
por que no buscan en construir un buen sonido en vez de estar perdiendo el tiempo con esos ruidos sin armonicos parece como que si le pisaran la cola a un gato se escuha muy apretado y lo que suena es puro ruido disculpe mi consejo

1:03 "There's *no pushing* involved. There's no pushing. It's just using the resistance.I don't think many people figure that out."
I’ve been thinking about that and it’s starting to make sense. Definitely an interesting way of thinking.
@@ColinMroczko It's not just interesting, it's the correct way of playing.
What is meant by resistance when he talks about it?
@@sebastianmorris4316 I believe the resistance of the horn pe mouthpiece. We should ask Jim for details.
i love the comment about the pinky ring being broke off and the guy saying no pressure so funny. saw airmen of note live it was amazing i wish i could get trumpet lessons from these guys
you guys are great
funny that brian said that that was the first g above c ever played on that horn cuz he's got them now.
whatever kevin played is amazing....

"Feels a little bigger than mine"......said a mouthfull there......

I had that happen to me. I just recovered from it.
@gregpenechar Yes, Brian plays lead on that tune.

sounds great
daamn. i dont knwo what kevin played but it was aammmaaaaaazzzzzinnggg
Unreal. Smarter not harder...

See, this is the real trick to getting high notes. It's not about mouthpieces, but how you use you air which sadly you can't buy in a store.

Mega!!!!!!!🔥🔥🔥💙💛💙💛💙💛💙🇺🇦🇺🇸🇺🇦🇺🇸🇺🇦🇺🇸🎺🎺🎺
Does Brian play lead on "Underground" by Ryan Haines?
anyone can write me what it says jim manley pro I do not speak English could understand through a translator
please I would appreciate it very much!
One of the horns played is a Connstellation.
What is Jim's setup?
6:48
Sickness. I'd love to be his neighbor lol, seriously.
does jim use a squeeling embocher or something?
if i'm not mistaken for part of it it sounds like hes just doing tritones
ie cgc f#bbc# cgc ect...
That is not a tritone. A tritone has three tones ( c-F#) cgc is just I-V-I

two 2 both of you i just saw that i didnt spell two right
it's kind of hard to catch everything jim's saying.. he starts and stops so much lol
Anyone else thinks they both sound better on the conn?

i think that's the opposite of what mr manley's getting at.
hahah! 1:40-1:50 is hilarious
listen to what he says on this video lol
dido to the last comment
Lip slurs, Clarke Studies, and Schlossburg.
eso es una clase disculpa una clase de que de notas apretadas la verdad no quiero ofender pero es que no le veo el sentido
por que no buscan en construir un buen sonido en vez de estar perdiendo el tiempo con esos ruidos sin armonicos parece como que si le pisaran la cola a un gato se escuha muy apretado y lo que suena es puro ruido disculpe mi consejo
