My favorite excerpt
What a pleasure to hear you, the sound is pure and full of sweetness with a lot of finesse.
Magnificent !
Quel plaisir de vous entendre, la sonorité est pure et pleine de douceur avec beaucoup de finesse.
Magnifique !
What a wonderful sound! I’m still sticking with my Benge trumpets though.
That sounded fantastic. Please tell me you have a lot more of these coming out. :-)
He plays Yamaha for this vid but every other video on TH-cam he’s playing Bach 😜
What other videos?
yeah.but it's means he is multi player too.
Yes, he plays Bach.
I think the Eric Miyashiro Yamaha jazz trumpet might be the best trumpet in the world. I play a Yamaha myself but I’m a nobody. 🎺😀
I wonder what made him move away from his Shires trumpet.
What piece is this? I would love to play it!
Pines of Rome

What did Ludwig Guettler play?

57dogsbody i cannot, my level is not as big
I also play Yamaha on my main horn - a 632 rose brass M bore Schilke designed one from the 70s. No it isn't a Schilke clone. It's designed by Schilke and manufactured by Yamaha... not that it matters. It plays better for me than anything else I've tried (including other Schilkes and Yamahas), and I basically stole it from someone who left it time capsuled in a closet for 40 years. I'm sure it's just my personal preference though, and mostly the combination of the bore and the rose brass bell. People can hear the difference between the 632 and my old Yamaha 4000 series for sure but a quality pro horn is just a matter of preference, nothing more. The 4000 series was plenty good enough to learn to play at a decent level, it just didn't sing as much. 2000 series Yamaha is a bit of a hindrance once you know what your doing. 2000 series horns aren't bad, they just aren't very good either (which is exactly what to expect from a student instrument).
I'm not sure why this guy is playing C trumpet in his advert for Yamaha but I would guess that its a matter of personal preference too, at least for the sound on this occasion. The Yamaha C trumpet is tight and even and sings at just the right point for him (maybe for you too, or maybe not). That's a nice convenient feature for a player to have an off the shelf horn that does exactly what he wants. Play the gear that feels good, but also play the gear that feels like it has something to teach you... because it does. You can get a 100 year old horn for a couple hundred bucks, the depreciation on it is long over if you want to learn about the old ways of playing. Or drop your 3 grand on a brand new horn with nothing guiding you other than brand loyalty. It doesn't really matter so long as you are a dedicated musician. Realistically, every dedicated player should have a pro level instrument once they have decided to play for the rest of their lives.
PS - Play the Bach if you really want to, but not because someone tells you that's the horn to get for you to move to the next level. There's more used Bach Strads out there than any other horn and its because the player wasn't sufficiently inspired to continue playing. It's nothing against the Strad, just kids who didn't really care enough to keep playing.
After I got sellers regret for my 634 - I've managed to secure another one. Happy days.
@@pgpete I'm really hurting for a Martin Committee but I got my 632 for $300 in very good condition and I fear it may have ruined me for all future horns. Recently I got an LA Olds Special receiverless Cornet for $200 that needs the olds proprietary large shank. It came without a mp so I tried a trumpet mp instead. I actually prefer using a trumpet mouthpiece on it with the tuning slide pushed all the way in to compensate for the added length from the trumpet mouthpiece. It slots super nice and wide like that. I fear this has further ruined my future search for "the perfect" horn. The added length from a longer mouthpiece feels like adding a low gear for the horn, less punch but wider slots. If you are curious you could try a cheap cornet to trumpet mouthpiece adapter so it would go trumpet mp to adapter to trumpet with the tuning slide pushed in more than normal. Trust me, it's worth the $20 on the adapter. It's like adding a low gear to the horn.
@@dachanist law of diminishing returns - once you get to a certain level throwing more money at your gear level doesnt provide much of an increase in instrument quality or functionality. You can prove this by swapping trumpets with another guy with a pro trumpet - you will still sound like you, and he will still sound like him. That being said I still get it - you can derive a lot of pleasure from owning and playing a pro level instrument - sometimes a great instrument can inspire the player to play better...
I didn’t read all of this but, the ps. Is so true. I know way too many freshmen that go out and get a Bach 37 because their teacher told them too, or because they didn’t know better, or most commonly, because they weren’t ready for a professional horn. Then, three years later they end up selling it and buying a different model Bach, Yamaha, Edwards, Ect.
What hall is he playing in? It isn't Verizon Hall. Those seat backs are sure different.
