Thank you so much for the incredible resources you provided for the brass community and congratulations on your newborn! If you ever return, I would love to see more arrangements for the wide variety of instruments you own (loved your soprano trombone contrabass trombone duet haha). Sad to see you go, but wishing you all the best on your next chapter!

For more than a dozen years, my wife-at her behest-and I have daily been taking 5,000IU of vitamin D3 plus 0.5mg of iodine through kelp flakes on our meals. We`ve barely been sick during that time, even during the last 3 years we came down with nothing-amazing! Best wishes.

    It's been such a huge pleasure to follow you for all these years. I've been following you since way back in 2014 & I've seen your instrument collection grow tremendously, while learning more about brass instruments than I ever thought possible!
    I'm not the person I was when I first started following you either, time seems to have been following us all! I was a high school trombone player in those days, and now I find myself almost a decade later doing park land management; what a world! In a way, I sort of grew up with this channel!
    I've greatly appreciated your videos and I hope you find success in everything you choose to pursue next!

    Trent, you are one of the biggest reasons I thrive to learn more about music and the history of musical instruments. I’ve watched you from the beginning, and loved every minute of it. Thank you for all the hard work you’ve put in for people like me.

    I'm not a brass player (I play drums) but it's been a joy to watch your channel grow over the past years. Best of luck to you and your family in the future! Once your kids can play a horn, you better post a video :P

    I hadn’t run across your channel until relatively recently, but it’s been a unique treat during.
    Have no fear, so many of us have slow-updating channels on the sidebar, and we’ll still welcome anything new.
    Welcome the changed life focus, and use the channel for as much fun and interesting and educational as you’d like.

    Your channel has always been a comforting place, Trent. I remember finding your videos online when I was 12 or 13 and feeling like I found my people. I'm getting my Doctorate now in composition and I couldn't be more grateful for everything you've given the community. With your name and flowing, I could imagine your channel being a transformative space in new music for brass. "Trent Hamilton" could be the new big distributor for brass music! Just some food for thought :) Best of luck with the kiddos

    When I first found you, you were posting videos of the trombone family and I was in high school. Your brief video demonstrating each member was something I remembered my first year of college, and I searched it up and used it in a class presentation. Now, I’m a degree-holding, certified music teacher. Thanks for being here and being part of what not only motivated me to be an instrumental music major but also helped me get my degree. Now, I teach choir… looks like we both found different paths than we were on a few years ago! :)

    While I haven't been here as long as many...I still must say thank you for being a wonderful gateway into the world of music. A passion such as this never leaves you, so I hope you are blessed with the gift and love of music forevermore. Cheers!

    I always enjoyed your videos covering obscure brass instruments, even if I wasn't a regular viewer. I must say, it's been a joy to watch you grow and change -- and always for the better. I'm glad you're not leaving TH-cam completely, but I'm really happy you're taking more time for yourself. Hell, I'm just really happy for you, man! Keep your slide lubed!

    You’ve helped me learn so much about instruments and music. I’m a trombone player teaching myself trumpet. I’ve been watching you for years and I’m happy to say that I’m still learning from you and channels similar to yours. This man has kept my passion alive simply by being someone I can search for when I need a little bit of inspiration. Thank you, Mr. Hamilton!

    Trent - as so many others have already said, it has been a pleasure watching and supporting your channel. Informative, passionate, humorous, but never boring, you brought some of the best 'real' content to what can be a cesspit of narcissistic pursuits. So, thank you for being real and for sharing your passion for brass with us.

    In Virginia, USA and have been playing trumpet since March of 1960 so I really have enjoyed seeing your variety of horns and hearing you demonstrate their qualities (or lack thereof); enjoy being a good father as that is the most important gift for you to give. Thanks again.

    Trent, I first discovered your channel when I was eleven years of age. I have now begun attending University and I can honestly say that your content fostered an immense inspiration in growing my appreciation for the world of music and it has been a joy to watch tis channel go to the places it has gone and to be here on this journey with you. Thank you for all you have done for all of us and I wish you and your family the best in the future and good luck with all your future endeavors! :)

    I'll always enjoy your videos as sporadic as they might be; You are like a gem from a bygone era of TH-cam where it's just some hobbyist randomly uploading a video every once in a while to show you what he's gotten himself into now. Also your dry humour is unlike any other. You do you.

    Thank you for your content, Trent! I've been watching for the better part of eight years now, and really can see part of the growth of myself as a musician paralleled with the knowledge I gained from your videos. I recall trying my hand at arranging for the first time for one of your intro/outro contests years ago - I have since composes and transcribed many, many pieces that I may never have without your channel! Best of luck in the future!

    So sorry to see you go. You have answered so many of my questions about "What if they made a. . . " You showed that they tried and it didn't work. Still looking for an independent brass harmony instrument. Best wishes wherever your paths take you.

    Man, you’re one of the reasons I’m even into music. I started watching you in 9th grade and now I’m in college pursuing a music degree! I enjoyed every video you put out, it always put a smile on my face when I was down. I know you’re family has the BEST DAD, I wish you the very best in your future endeavors.
