Thank you so much you saved my ass :D
@Dillon Tatum happy to help xD
Man, his passing has hit me harder than some of my own family members passing. I'm glad Paul had this opportunity and experience with Bill. I'll always remember our own personal time together playing jazz standards for 3 hours at his home, many years ago.
RIP Bill Watrous. I guess now was your time to go.
His cadenza on 4th floor walk up is absolutely the best. Excellent video here Paul. You were lucky.
Bill was a genius. Totally unique. Probably the greatest trombone player who ever lived.
I will never forget walking into the exhibit hall in San Antonio, at the IAJE convention and seeing Bill across the way. I told my wife “hey, that’s Bill Watrous”. We walked over and he was doodling on the trombone. He noticed me, stopped, turned to me, shook my hand and said “hey babe'!” as if he had known me all his life. Very genuine and humble man he was.
73 and trying to get my chops back. And recommendations.
Yes !!!
Don’t “try”.
Play a bit, rest...
Play a bit, rest...
Play a bit, rest...
That’s the masters way.
Cheers to you !!
Thanks for the great video Paul. I had the honor of meeting Bill twice in El Paso, TX, when I played lead trombone in the UTEP jazz band. Great human being, who really redefined the way a trombone is played. I’ll never forget having a conversation with him where he told me that in order to prepare for a gig he would practice 12 to 16 hours per day. He was a workaholic who loved his craft, and would outwork his competition.
I dig the first display of doing so much whit a few notes
Veiwd this clip several times…awesome interview and lessons learned…thanks Paul
Paul,
Thank you for going to the trouble of videoing Bill. I studied with Bill from 1977 - 1981 while attending CSUN. the warm up and embouchure exercises are ones we did sitting opposite each other at his house during the first part of the lesson. By doing this warm up (low pressure) it focused my chops, extended and solidified my range both up and down. I talked to Maryann a few months ago and she is well. We all miss Bill.
Wow, that is deep, great video!
Great as always. And what an incredible story near the end there.
Paul, Bill briefly refers to warming up on his mouthpiece in the car on the way to the gig due to lack of time. I'm playing Sackbut with a group of Renaissance string & recorder players. They don't want to hear me do a 5 minute warmup. I need the warmup though,, so I can play on the soft side, with a good tone. Just playing a mouthpiece is messy! I remember a million years ago in college there was a guy who had a piece of tubing or something, still messy with all the saliva. Could this be a topic to discuss? Some trombonists might have invented something that works well for the car warmup.
My favorite jazz trombonist!
May Bill Watrous rest in peace. He was a very inspirational musician and my gateway to pursue the trombone.
watch 2:13 to 2:25 out of context.
I think he was demonstrating running up and down arpegios. It may have been CMaj7, C7, C6 into F. Pitching was a bit off.
What did you observe?
@@medicalinterest9091 watching it out of context, it's just a funny scene :)
@@martin1024 Thanks.
Love it !!!
At 56, I am now PLAYING the T-bone correctly, with ease and alacrity.
I can get WAY up there with very little effort !
Thanks master 😊
Rest In Peace Bill. What a master of the instrument.
I loved his “testimony “ at the end . However, he never addressed your question regarding his incredible breath control. Did he ever answer this question?
I believe his answer came in the form of his story. The point of his story was that his incredible breath control came as a gift from God. The point being that even after his lungs were affected, he was still able to go right back to playing.
that was fun! Follow me on twitter to get in on the action next time twitter.com/jazztrombonist
Incredible how he still could play in his advanced 70's... RIP GOAT
Hi Paul, I note your video is over 4 years old (its now July 2020) Interesting about the visitation. Both my parents had visitations. My father dismissed them as himself going crazy even though they were incredibly real for him. My mother (at 95 and a half) on the afternoon of her dying was visited by my favorite cousin who had died a week before. I don't think my mother knew of my cousins death. I couldn't see who my mother was talking to but she was very happy. I still have no beliefs about after life but maybe we are all visitors to this space-time dimension. I don't have any faith but I pray for things and they happen even when I have just been joking.
Very odd.
You wrote your comment about afterlife, and visitation about a year ago, and that you lacked faith. I would like to suggest a TH-cam channel called "Give Me An Answer", with Cliffe Knechtle. He helps people to consider first to follow the evidence wherever it points. He gives evidence to consider that there is a God. After a person gets there, he then gives evidence that the Gospels are historically reliable accounts of Jesus, how He lived (without sin), what He taught, how He died (forgiving His enemies), and that He rose from the dead. And that we can know God. His format is on college campuses where student ask him questions, and he gives answers, and they have a discussion about the topic. May God give you understanding as you seek to know truth about God.
Bill Watraus played a lot Just out of curiosity What is his Trombone brand Does anyone know?
Wow!! Bill Watrous! You can just feel the knowledge ooze out of him in this great video!! And the great thing for all of us is that we can listen to it over and over and have our ears and brains take it in!! Thank you again so much Paul for this Master Series!! :-) Great job!!
This was so informative! Thanks for interviewing this legend of a trombonist, Paul!
In college for a jazz festival had the absolute pleasure of playing with Mr watrous as he was our guest musician. Was a thrill and an honor. And what made it better was the fact that he actually flirted and hit on my then girlfriend who was my 3rd chair bone (I was lead horn) hahahaha to this day, that was the coolest thing ever!! Hahaha rip Bill!
yes! bill is definitely my favorite bone artist
This is my favorite interview of this series with my trombone hero the late great Mr. Bill Watrous! I had the pleasure of meeting Bill twice, once at the NAMM show in Anaheim and the other time at the ITF convention in Redlands where I met you as well Paul. He was a very nice person and even showed me some stuff on trombone and complimented me on my tone!
Many years ago Bill Came to my home town in Wales.He took out the mouthpiece placed his head in the bell and played through horn backwards.
Wow, I finally found the vid! The one and only Bill Watrous :-)
Rhythmically in the grove while blowing garbage still sounds pretty cool !
What a wonderful musician and person overall. He has done so much for the world. May he Rest In Peace. His passing really hit me hard as a Trombonist. I know he’s blowing some hot lines with someone greater than us
God, even when Bill tries to play badly, it sounds incredible.
Love bone masters! It must be amazing to play and learn with all of these amazing players, what a great way to teach concepts to an audience too. Thank you so much
Came back to this video after hearing about watrous’s passing, rest in peace, amazing player.
I've watched this a half-dozen times. He made it look so easy...and it's not! RIP Bill.
Anyone know of a transcription of Bill's warmup ideas? I may try to put one together on paper, that there's good stuff...!
Great teaching in this vid. Enjoyed the practical examples. And his supernatural experience he shared at the end, well, it must have been real. I hear lots of these sort of things.
yes! bill is definitely my favorite bone artist
Was he also circular breathing??
Thanks for sharing Paulie
¡¡¡Maravilloso!!!, mi respeto, mi admiración y un eterno abrazo de luz a el mas grande trombonista de Jazz de todos los tiempos, a mi gran maestro Bill Watrous.
the solo at 7:25 was so weird compared to the first one I dropped my apple
Many years ago Bill Came to my home town in Wales.He took out the mouthpiece placed his head in the bell and played through horn backwards.
what it must feel like to play like that. Always admired every aspect of his playing. Always seemed like a good fellow too. He was so nice to a googly-eyed 17 year-old me on '81.
Ready to film?
Wait, put these shades on !!
Ahhhhhhhhh, now we’re cool 😎
Beautiful!!!
The VOICE at 0:15 , a spot for Mac Donald or the naxt pdt of USA ?
❤
great questions. Everything I would have asked him
Wow incredible but it likes he putting tension into his lips even though he said he's not.
Very very interesting, thank you so much !
Paul, thank you so much for these great videos. I've learned a lot watching them.
Could you tell me the family name of the guy who rewrites melodies over chord changes that Mr.Watrous mentioned?
Tom Kubis.
Thank you for sharing this.
Bill, we miss You so much!
He put me into a trance.
Rich Bullock!
🤯
Nice! Really nice. Legend.
I hope he is playing with the greats in heaven
Is it just me that likes the “BS” playing
I love it
W. O. W!!!!
Paul what what mic do you use on the trombone?
He’s still considering whether or not to tell you.
🤪🤪🤪
so funny
how
Can't complain any chance I get to see Bill play, but it would be so cool if he could answer the questions asked. I don't think he's doing it on purpose, he just gets off topic into stories.
Thanks again for you work Paul!
Paul. Please enter Kurt Thompson's trombone challenge!!
