Wow! What a great guy Doc is and how knowledgeable about music, trumpet-playing and life. And his interviewer is delightful. Wish I'd stuck with the trumpet in my teens, but could never come near matching Doc and all the other greats.
the true sign of greatness is when someone of immense talent and achievement can be down to earth, not condescending, and willingly talks about how he achieved and continues to achieve that greatness. That is Doc Severinsen .
I adore this sweet man. Been following him for 51 years. He has always been so gracious to me when I have been able to meet him. He is my trumpet inspiration forever.
Mr. Severinsen-I've been a big fan since the early 70 's -- Hearing you today has inspired me to really start playing seriously again .I'm 57 had some health issues I believe I'm over. I now feel it's not to late to make it happen again. Thanks for sharing -- Mike Koptyra
Ray Crisara taught at the University of Texas at Austin's Butler School of Music..... I'M going to be a transfer student there...... and Doc gave two of the hugest compliments you could give to that man.... holy cow am I lucky to be playing here 😍
I was a trumpet player in the UT Longhorn band 50 years ago. Doc was in Austin for a concert one week during football season and joined us for an outdoor pep rally event one Friday night before that Saturday’s game.
5 people who went directly from a conservatory environment to a symphony orchestra gig without learning anything about music besides how to win an audition disliked this interview.
Doc's fingers work the lifters, at such a rate, that the cylinders glow; He is the first Trumpeter with whom I encountered a burnt cylinder. The pistons-valves were in tack, but the cylinder walls were bored-out from the friction. Air was seeping from the cylinders becoming bored-out. Well, Doc made the seeping sound apart of the pitching sound. Maybe a ring-job could be incorporated into the piston .. All-in-all ...just try STP industrial strength oil or there is 40 weight grease.
+Donald Marshall STP or 40-weight grease? Monster Oil or no oil! Unless, of course the ring job was done with parts from a 1993 Dodge Daytona. Then, by all means, go ahead with the industrial stuff....
I blew my lip out over-playing double high "G"s during a halftime show back in high school (a thousand years ago). I pretty much got it back but never really the same. I haven't played in so long, though....I would LOVE to have a horn again, develop good tone and see what I'm still capable of. He seems to have some extra horns back there...I'll gladly take one off his hands, haha! ;-)
So generous with his knowledge.. Thanks for sticking around, Doc!

I love Doc. he is so wise and intelligent, he's one of my trumpet idols next to Maynard Ferguson.
I feel the same way....on all counts.
And they both learned from Benny Baker
Doc, man what a classy guy, could listen to him for hours

This is so valuable! Thanks for ALL of your great videos!

+Mike Koptyra You should absolutely make it happen again! Doc is such an inspiration in so many ways.
Thanks so much for a great interview. I learned a lot about Doc I never knew. Brian O'Flaherty

Awesome interview! Much appreciated. Thank Doc for me, as well!
I swear: The radiance from Doc's trumpet causes the cylinders to glow while FLAMES thrust-out from the trumpet bell.

Thanks, Doc!

Love his emphasis on vocal phrasing. Same for guitar!
Awesome 👏

Doc. Do you remember a trumpet player named Lou Oles?. He was my friend and teacher in the 60’s in California.

Nice interviews man! you could have 10 times more suscribers with Spanish subtitles, and i'd also be grateful XD
This is a GREAT idea. Seems like a ton of work. It's on the to-do list.
MonsterOil if you guy need help, I would gladly do this for free.
Interviewer seems nervous as hell... I would be too!
Help me Please! Doc is talking about characteristic studies(~7:45). I can’t understand name of author. Anyone?
Kamil Zwoliński St. Jacome's
What étude is he talking about at 11:57?
This one:

Charlier Etude 2. Sorry I'm 4 years late
...to be a better husband!
Interviewer's attitude not acceptable.
