@@fredrik952I spoke with an ex-trumpet player for the President’s Own marine band and he said that you should aim for a high C (high Bb for bass clef) with your finger under the third valve in order to prevent it from going all the way down while vigorously shaking the horn
NICE JOB!! (And the “horse whinney” at the end was perfection.) As a brass & woodwind teacher for 33 years (and a musician who has played this piece about 13 times), you can trust me when I say you did an outstanding job. You weren’t just good technically - you played it MUSICALLY! Keep it up. The worldwide tribe of musicians is happy to have you among us!
@@kaitlynr8688i play the trumpet, and when my fingers are flat theres a higher chance of me pushing sideways (thats how the valves get stuck). Curving them makes me push straight up and down which is better for the valves! (i’m not a professional though, just from my experience)
I was so impressed with how well you guys watched the conductor. The tone quality was pretty darn good and you guys did really good with dynamics. All of that was very impressive. All of you guys were truly one unit.
I am a band director as well and I have to say that your tone, attention to articulation, and dynamic contrast is exceptional! Keep playing! Truly talented musicians!
i don’t play trumpet nor am i in band anymore (graduated high school 3 years ago) but this brings back so many memories of christmas rehearsals and holiday concerts. i wish my band and i did these videos back then. u 2 sound great AND THAT NEIGH WAS THE BEST IVE EVER HEARD
I've been on a kick of watching Sleigh Ride and have probably seen 100 of these videos. You two are the unequivocal best of the trumpets. You're focused, you nail the tone, and it was a pleasure to watch you as you are intentional in playing well.
I graduated HS over a decade ago but this was always the most fun song to play around Christmas. Our director did not like doing it every winter concert but almost every section has a really fun part to play, so it always made its way into the program.
Man this bring back memories. Used to play trumpet back in high school and had a Christmas concert playing Sleigh Ride as well. Keep up the great work guys. Trumpets represent! 💪🏼
Guy on the right, I know a face of someone (usually percussion) messing up😂Regardless, both of you were on point, and the horse whinny was fantastic!! 10/10, this was a textbook performance. Well done!
I know I'm late but I love this video! The band sounds so great and you two sound amazing as well! (coming from a 2nd year trumpeter) Sleigh ride never gets old with videos like these (In my opinion, best sleigh ride video from a trumpet's pov)
I’m a freshman trumpet playing 1st cornet on this piece in December at my first high school band concert. I’m kinda terrified but extremely excited haha!

I love hearing the bells desperately trying to keep the group from rushing but the horns and flutes are having none of it lol
as a flautist, i take offense, but also I DONT RUSH, HOWEVER, i cant say the same for the rest of my section
The saxes during the soli were on there own timing 💀
@@pharrahlowther so yeah the flutes rush... thats what the comment was
During rehearsals the saxes got cut out in a part WHERE THEY HAD THE MELODY cus the first chair was confused the whole time and playing random shit
That's all this song is. The tamb and sleigh bells trying to slow it down while everyone speeds up
Horse neigh was bloody perfect! Even better than some professional bands.
how is that done? im not a trumpet player so it was pretty weird / impressive
@@dragonstorm9567 I am a euphonium player so don't actually know the technique behind it.
You just push your valves half way down and slur up and do this weird shake when going back down
@@fredrik952push your valves half way down, start high and shake the trumpet as you go down

facial expressions were on point
Notice how much I have memorized after playing it for four years 💪🏼
gotta do what you gotta do 🙏
guy on the right was DEDICATED, and the guy on the left was relaxed.
@@ariroary I could never keep a straight face, if I'm running out of air or hitting a pretty high note, you'll know for sure. 💀
@@DarkVeil857 oh definitely 💀 if someone plays a wrong note next to me i’m dead 😭😭
I love their combined tone. They’re both so different but they sound amazing together.
What do you mean they're different? Wait, scratch that, one is a human, the other is antique farming equipment.

I'm a music teacher and I would love to show this video to my band students on how to properly watch a conductor. You guys cool with that?
Of course!
You might need to gimme some lectures because I have a very bad habit of not watching my director, I'm working on it though

Whats the difference between having their fingers arched vs flat when playing?
@@kaitlynr8688 Having them curved and pressing straight down on the keys is easier on the body AND allows the keys to be played more quickly.

@@jillybean2722 you are right, that indeed does get the valves more stuck when you play flat versus arched
I swear every other school's band always has people that look like they're college students-adults lol
tuba in the back row lol
bro has a full grown beard 😂
@@pinkyoshi5433 high schoolers have gone through puberty…
@@caleyholland7601 yeah, but i was adding to the fact that the high schools band look like college students
Saw this in my recommended and was convinced it had at least over a million views, has that feel to it, great performance guys
I was so impressed with how well you guys watched the conductor. The tone quality was pretty darn good and you guys did really good with dynamics. All of that was very impressive. All of you guys were truly one unit.
2:10 is insane to do! Amazing work!! I love playing this song.
as a sax its def my least favorite part of the song
@@filmfreak5856I play clarinet and I hate that part with a passion
The horse trumpet player is absolutely going places
DAMN that horse whinny was clean
The fact that it's way past Christmas and your music still got stuck in my head shows how amazing you are.
Edit: Mom I'm famous
I am a band director as well and I have to say that your tone, attention to articulation, and dynamic contrast is exceptional! Keep playing! Truly talented musicians!
unpopular opinion: all of the trumpets need to do the horse whinny at the same time
and nice performance
That’d lowkey go crazy
i'd buy a trumpet and practice it secretly just so i can do that if we ever do this song at my school
@@_blackholesarecoolwhy secretly?
@@russellbrothers9627 so everyone will be surprised when i pull out a trumpet
Seriously, this sounded so freaking good, this is why I love the sound of a trumpet
EPIC HORSE NEIGH!!! Perfect for 2023 after Thanksgiving.
I love the subtle self-evaluations on the face. Success or failure. Love it. Shooting for excellence!
Not only are they both amazing at playing and their whole band ate that up but they’re cute too!
i don’t play trumpet nor am i in band anymore (graduated high school 3 years ago) but this brings back so many memories of christmas rehearsals and holiday concerts. i wish my band and i did these videos back then. u 2 sound great AND THAT NEIGH WAS THE BEST IVE EVER HEARD
From a trumpet, love the playing but my god dude on the left- FLAT FINGERS?!?😭 loved the ending tho
Seeing two guys in tuxedos play such nostalgic Christmas music is just amazing 😂😂😂
Great job guys!

1:04 favorite part😍, I love the way the trumpets match tone and just the way they sound together
Criminally underrated. Amazing job, this legitimately could've been a professional band from the way it sounded!
as a fellow trumpet player..... TRUMPETS STAN Y'ALL SLAYED
Wow! I’m an eighth grade trumpet and you guys are amazing!
coming from an 8th grade percussionist it would be amazing to work with people of this skill level
@@ale_isanodd1 you will meet them in high school
as an 8th grade violinist who knows little to no knowledge about band, sleigh ride is somewhat easier to play in orchestra lmao
Ay eighth grade trumpet gang. It would be cool to play with these guys tbh
@@randomanimatorandgamer9392 nicee im 7th grade trumpet its pretty cool
me watching this in mid summer
Fr
Man this bring back memories. Used to play trumpet back in high school and had a Christmas concert playing Sleigh Ride as well. Keep up the great work guys. Trumpets represent! 💪🏼
I don’t even know how much times I watched this. It’s such a good piece played by two talented trumpets!
most majestic looking trumpet players
Dude, this is SOLID. I love your articulation!!
I love how good this is played, i listen to this everytime i get ready for performances it makes me so motivated!
woah the tone of the whole band and the skills of you two are really impressive... bravo and keep practicing! happy holidays
1:29 that little eye roll on the guy on the left when the saxes rushes lmao
I think hes just looking for the conductors cue
Can't wait for this to be recommended in 10 years
My dumb ass thought they were playing inside a Home Depot
Guy on the right, I know a face of someone (usually percussion) messing up😂Regardless, both of you were on point, and the horse whinny was fantastic!! 10/10, this was a textbook performance. Well done!
Whenever y’all put up yalls horns you can tell the one on the right loves marching season😂
He marches in college now! I played trombone with these guys.
I know I'm late but I love this video! The band sounds so great and you two sound amazing as well! (coming from a 2nd year trumpeter) Sleigh ride never gets old with videos like these
(In my opinion, best sleigh ride video from a trumpet's pov)
your guys tone is incredible!!! and the horse blow 🤌
This is incredible! Great job to the two of you, and of course the rest!
2:48 that dying animal noise was on-point!
edit: i meant a horse
Dying!??
Dying…. Do you mean just a living horse noise…………..
So progressive to feature two left-handed trumpets in the famous Backwards Italics H Gymnasium, home of the Ergos!
I am in love with this song
This was really cool!! You guys are super talented
this is the definition of two friends playing different parts
Bro y’all articulation and pitch is so good great job 💯
Underrated contentment . Nice work! Pure talent
why is the guy on the right tweakin so hard
sick masterpiece
Absolutely beautiful, you should post more!
I recently played sleigh ride for the last time at my school so seeing this just brought back so much nostalgia. Nice job guys!~
Two class acts, really brilliant.
I’m a freshman trumpet playing 1st cornet on this piece in December at my first high school band concert. I’m kinda terrified but extremely excited haha!
Oh my word! That was beautiful!!❤ well done!
