- Transcription of the trumpet soli from "Cherokee" arranged by Alan Baylock. An impressive feat, executed by the incredible Airmen of Note. I also recommend checking out the recording by UNT with Sean Jones if you want to listen to the whole tune. I hope you enjoy!

Unreal coordination, they sound like a single instrument when playing together
That’s the goal for most bands! Not to have 3 different trumpets sounds, to sound like 1 trumpet
That's the Military for ya
My dumb ass is sitting here like "wait which one of them playing"
its pretty normal for an orchestra
one giant trumpet
How is this even possible, the unity and the tightness…
Because it's ALL they do.
@@shipyaad This right here. Two words.
Military band.
@@NickzAndMikz fr lmao
it's called practice.
Practice, practice, and more practice. They are professional. You take pride in your playing, and in playing in a group. What it is really called is dedication, and love for music and your instrument.
That double C is just so clean
Totally insane, especially after such demanding loops!
I love this recording so much, i went to an airmen of note concert when i was in 6th grade and my father and I watched them absolutely destroy this version of cherokee. I got home and for weeks searched for a recording for that concert and finally found it. I watched it on car rides, in the shower, and in my room when i was bored. It was the song and this very concert/youtube vid that eventually got me into jazz. Now i’m studying it in college! Thanks for the amazing transcription.
What a beautiful story. Jazz really is a powerful genre, I just wish more people were capable of appreciating it.
I'm so glad young musicians like yourself have access to great music like this on the internet. I got my music degree in the 90s and half the attraction was being able to access the listening rooms at the music library. Good luck to you. You appear to have been inspired by great taste.
thought this was insane then i realized that they're in the army band so that's just a given
Air Force. This is the Airmen of Note
@@counterfit5 ok thank you for correcting me it was very necessary
@@nathanlikesjazz 100% was - there’s a difference in band and service.
Huge difference in band and branch of service. Great U.S. Air Force quality since WWII.
@@nathanlikesjazz That absolutely is a necessary distinction
i wish i actually played trumpet just so i could better appreciate how amazing this is. that high c is CLEAN
Such good arranging and perfectly executed. This is how you write a trumpet soli.
I watched a texas honor band play this at the JEN Conference 2022 and it was one of the most impressive things I saw there, but man this is another level of just mind-blowing unity and honestly it's just satisfying to watch.
ive wanted to play this for so long thanks so much for this. Super epic
The lads really went off on this one.
Fantastic! Makes me want to pick up a trumpet 🎺 👍🏼👍🏼
i will forever flex the fact that i saw this legendary ensemble in person
They sound incredible! 🎺
Arpeggios are a thing of beauty.
As a trumpet this is just amazing
As a music stand this is ok
@@jsparger as sheet music this is great
As a piano, this is average
Why was this so mesmerising
That was absolutely amazing
This was very well done.
Holy frick that is beyond tight wow.
Been waiting years for this
what sharing one brain cell really looks like
Best trumpet soli I’ve ever heard
Absolutely Super! 🎺👍
They're so in sync and can PLAY that 🎺💯
this was great
unbelievable
gorgeous
Airmen of note! That's sick!
trumpet tuning turned into an art form :O
Good ol' Brian Macdonald ripping a double C like it's nothing
Amazing
Seeing those harmonies at 0:35 made it clear for me that instrument I heard on a jpop track (which I thought were a synth) was trumpets playing together
most controlled dub c ive ever heard
Nice!
I have never seen a piece of sheet music with 330 bpm. As I trumpet player, i could never
That’s not that bad
Reminds me of the Jetsons! Those Airmen are certainly 'of Note!'
CHEROKEE!!!
So damn awesome 😎 PHAT
Me (primarily a french horn player): Technically difficult, but not too rangy. I think If I practiced the hell out of this, I could record it.
Tpt 1 in the last two bars: haha, lead goes brrr
Some things want to make you practice, others want to make you give up and never play again.
HOW AM I EVER GOING TO DO THAT?!?
Wiiilmaaaaaaaaa!!!!
Yooo, I love this song, didn't know about this performance, as I found it from the "1 O'clock Band" with that fucking mad man of a trumpet soloist, but it's always nice to see other performances of the same song
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Dude there was one line thought it was one instrument did not see 1-4…holy shit
the percussion tho???? goddamn
For the first half in unisson i was only looking at the notes so i thought that there was only one instrument then i saw 4 lines of trumpet and i knew
It’s so unfair that an effortless Double C like that can come from someone’s face. 🤤🤤
Buh, buh, buh, buh…
Buh!
when everyone refuses to play unless they play first
Finally… good trumpet players
That's all the further they could get before it all fell apart
I didn't even realize the first section was all four of them until I read the comments
They were about to play the speed racer theme
This is giving me penguins of madagascar XD
That should definitely not be notated in 4/4 at 330. More like cut time at 165, but I feel it more as 4/4 at 165 with all the not values halved. EDIT: Maybe not 4/4. Not sure if all the hits line up right, but I would have to do more work than I'm willing to right now to figure it out lol
Cherokee is normally in 4/4
@@benmckay4004 Fair enough. But isn't it also usually much slower? At the very least, you might notate the tempo as half = 165. I guarantee you they are not feeling it at 330 bpm.
@@ChadMcCall42 yeah they're definitely not feeling it that way. Whenever I played super fast stuff in big band I had to feel it in 2
@@ChadMcCall42 Personally I feel it in 4 instead of 2, mostly because of the bass and set playing. I could understand where you're coming from though.
double time swing is always in 4, rare to see cut common in jazz
Jokes on you, I don't have friends 😂💀 ..
Really did think it was only one trumpet
I thought it was one trumpet until I looked at the video
bruh the rthym section is going crazy rn bruh
Amazing execution. Bet you 100 bucks they started rehearsing this at half speed at most, and very slowly worked their way up from there! That's the way to do it.
…ARE THEY ALL PLAYING? IM SO LOST
I feel like mariachi trumpet solis are more flashy and cooler than jazz trumpet solis in my opinion
I'm used to rock music in which the band follows or plays on top of the drummer's beat
In this style, it's like everyone, including the drummer, are following an unheard beat
It's weird to me that they don't quite sound like they're following the drums
Not bad, just different
Generally the bass controls time within the rhythm section, horns follow rhythm section for time and the drummer’s specific job is giving cues and fills to set up entrances and phrases and stuff, and also to control dynamics of the ensemble. But it’s more complicated than that, really everyone does a bit of following and a bit of leading, there’s a constant conversational push and pull that is just absolutely thrilling to participate in. It can make your brain hurt sometimes but once you get in that comfort zone and can really take off, it is unlike anything else in the world
in jazz, everyone feeds of everyone else's energy, everyone is as important as everyone else. I have to say I'm not sure what you mean by 'they don't sound like they're following the drums'. what does 'following the drums' mean?
@@JohnHaslamMusic i think he’s saying that in rock and other genres, the drummers job is usually to give clear and unmistakable time for the band to follow. If the drummer speeds up, the band speeds up. In jazz, like you said, everyone feeds off of the drummers energy, and some times it’s not his job to provide time for the whole band at every moment.
In this particular recording it’s difficult for some listeners to follow the timing of the drums because 1) the song is really fast and 2) the trumpet are locked in with themselves in this moment, not necessarily to the drummer specifically.
The drummer is really following them for time, while doing a good job of supporting their phrasing and setting up entrances for them.
As brilliant as the horns are here, I feel like the drummer is lagging.
Steve and Tom, yes, that's it. Thank you. I couldn't quite figure out how to say it clearly.
The performance is great - I'm not criticizing at all.
Different than what I'm used to, but great in its own way.
Leaving off the slur markings in the transcription actually makes this look much harder on the page than it was for them to produce this (admittedly excellent) recording.. They’re fantastic. But Al Hirt clones, they aren’t (at least not for these specific bars).
the guy playing saxophone on the bottom right sure does look like simon miniminter tho
It sounds better when everyone is a bit off imo
wait... what?
I though it was just one playing
damn, what a waste to have them all playing in unison, other than that this sounds awesome!
I feel like it's even more impressive since any misalignment is gonna be extra obvious
Very nice but why do they look like cops?
He doesn’t even add the slurs in the
BRUH I BETTER
THEY AINT GOT NOTHING ON ME
If y'all like this, go check out some DCI
Sounds like an old Mighty Mouse sound track.
Good technique but it swings like a rusty gate.
Why I hated jazz band as a trumpeter that sucked at soloing...
Not as hype as the comments say it just sounds like a regular jazz band
“a regular jazz band”. Buddy this is THE airmen of note. Crazy coordination, world class playing. They’re the top notch of jazz bands
World cops. Downvoted.
Easy key and 1 and 2 fingerings. Boring.
It’s really a lot of nonsense. Playing a lot of notes whilst really saying nothing at all..
Still Impressive
Actually in one respect it is. In another…. Anything is possible given long enough time on it. You seen that bob Mchesney trombone quartet?
I think for a section that is almost exclusively meant to just be a show off sequence, it pretty darn musical
it's fast, which is one thing on its own. but what's the most impressive is how tight they are playing together, and how they sound like 1 instrument. there is alot more than just playing fast
The point is you can do practically anything if you spend enough time at it. Anyone heard that unison line in rob McConnell scrapple from the apple? Would anyone give a crap if it wasn’t fast?
