Cabbage. Honestly you did a superb job of playing everything and I envy your restraint in the end. Consequently I have been inspired to fumble with my cornet once more
I always enjoy your videos - your're hilarious, informative, and execute everything nicely. This one was definitely an undertaking, and I'm proud of you for doing it. Also, cabbage.
That was absolutely amazing! I like old man Arban's arrangement the best, because in addition to being technically challenging, it is also melodic and pleasant to listen to. (And it is a version I can play). Some of the others are painful to play, and painful to listen to.
I don’t remember who wrote them, but I had to memorize a few variations for flute. One of them had a really fast cadenza that was basically a bunch of scale runs. One of them was definitely 10:07 and another was 11:08. The octave jumps one we had to do as well. There was a trick of the embouchure where you basically blow super hard to get the high note quickly, even if you’re fingering the low note. Also, cabbage.
Cabbage, of course! My dad, who was a Union trumpet player in New York City back in the 1920s, used to keep leaving my copy of Arban's Method open to Carnival of Venice when I was growing up just to annoy me, I think. He couldn't play it anymore, and I never got to the point where I could play it credibly. Now, at age 81, I have picked up the cornet again, and am having fun with ... wait for it ... Arban's Carnival of Venice. It was great to watch the video -- I had no idea any of the other versions existed! Thank you!
Cabbage! I'm working through the backlog of your videos, having just recently found your channel. Started playing tuba 45 years ago and haven't been the same since!
12:45 The version showing here appears like it was written by someone whose puppy was run over by an entire brass marching band, and the music is their act of vengeance. EDIT: CABBAGE!
The great trumpeter Rafael Mendez played his version with one finger. Naturally the trumpeters in my band were pitifully trying that before the concert that featured Rafael as our soloist and he snuck up on us during our feeble attempts. What a nice guy! He joined us for pizza and cabbage after the concert.
Cabbage! This was fascinating! I once attempted to teach myself the Clarke version of CoV over the course of 3-4 years, but never had the chance to perform the entire thing. I always wondered what the differences are in all the versions. Great job!
Cabbage. And the duet from the Pearl Fishers is without question one of my favorite to sing. Perfect for two horns. Anyway, this was a brilliant video! Incredibly well played and totally points out why vocalists are gobsmacked by instrumentalists!
I guess I’m a cabbage. Haven’t played Carnival in years although I did really only stick to Arban and Clarke when I did. Hats off to you Trent for the performances and any of that last version. Reminded me a little of a particular trumpet concerto with horrific intervals. Great as a technical piece to really show off ability but then starts to lose any listeners enjoyment due to it complexity.
Well played Trent, Good playing can I suggest a video on how you developed your ability to play high register and how you maintain it. Cabbage and happy New Year
Trent, I commented recently that many of your performances in these videos seem rushed. That is NOT the case here. Your tone is lovely, and your phrasing is sensitive and musical. Beautiful. I can tell the Euphonium is your main instrument.
Cabbage. I'd forgotten about the pieces I was encouraged to play as a High School band student that were rated by, and specifically written for, difficulty level. While they are great for improving proficiency on an instrument, they make up for their difficulty with a complete lack of musicality. Between the Arban cornet variations and the Vizzutti, which would you expect the typical concert audience to appreciate?
I had a sheet of carnival of Venice that I don't think anyone could ever play. It was written for baritone but I bought it for trombone. It was about 4 pages long. I want to get another copy of it.
I was a professional trombonist and I could never play the baritone piece.it had 64th note runs that were extremely high to extremely low notes. I can't remember the notes exactly but it ran up to 5 lines above the top to a jump down to 5 lines below the bottom.
Cabbage. Basically of you can play arban you're a great player ready for most music. If you can play all the various versions of this perfectly you're ready for all music.
Cabbage. My brother played the Staigers version with full band accompaniment as a junior in high school. He was amazing. It broke our band director's heart when he turned down music scholarships to prepare for the ministry. All in all, he made the right choice for him.
Herbert Clarke was a featured cornet soloist with the John Philip Sousa band. It is said that women would swoon upon hearing him play, but that may only be because their corsets were too tight. Women don't swoon much anymore, however
I found this edifying and entertaining. New Zealand had some great composers. Suggestion: the great New Zealand composer Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck composed this little piece called Fantasia Chromatica, that i would love to hear a brass arrangement of. Wouldnt that be great? There is no cabbage in that composition, but there couldve been.
cabbage! and bravo! i have loved this piece since i first heard the amazing wynton marsalis knock it out of the park in a recording from around 1990. have you heard it?
I'm trying to figure out what sort of instrument that Vizzuti mess is even targeting. 3 octaves is pretty steep to expect anything remotely musical from most instruments, let alone the players. I guess maybe one of the handful of studs that still plays Eb Trumpet could have a go at it. I can eek out about 3.5 octaves on one of those, but it doesn't take long for 3.5 to turn into 2.5. Also, do you think cabbage would make a good Euphonium mute?
Correct me if Im wrong but are you a little bit obsessed with the carnival? I feel like you have talked about it multiple times on this channel (which is not bad in any way) I was just wondering if there is anything special about that song in paricular Great playing btw, especially at the end
I found it quite interesting. I have a version by H.Round from when I played trumpet 50yrs ago. Recently taken the trumpet up again but now as a rank beginner to play to that level again is still a way off. I really enjoy your videos. BTW:-You have a great collection of instruments.
You forgot to mention the third New Zealand composer Trevor Wagner who may also have written another variation in collaboration with Colin TePussy, not sure about that. I am very impressed with your playing and I must say, as a former brass players ( about 100 years ago), I love all your videos.
Cabbage. I can’t Believe that I found sheet music finally for the carnival of Venus I’ve listen to it several times before but I’ve always wondered what the sheet music looked like I know you showed a lot of the sheet music for Carnaval a Venus but I was also wondering if you would be able to show the sections you didn’t show like the octave double jump portion in the very end of the peace
Nice vid! I played (attempted) the Clarke version in college around 1989 and after seeing this I may just bust it out again. Cabbage. Cabbages for everyone!
Niccolo Paganini (Italian), Franz Liszt (Hungarian)...I had no idea there were New Zealander counterparts, Nick Paganini and Frank Liszt, you sure about all that?!
Cabbage. The vegetable invented by the great New Zealand botanist Johann Sebastian Del Monte.
There was a wonderful farmer's market at the Carnival of Venice where I purchased some cabbage.
now that you say that, I'm pretty sure I remember purchasing something there too 🤔
Was is cabbage or coleslaw?
If there were lyrics, this should be one of the lines
Excellent playing Trent, you really undersell yourself
Edit: cabbage
I love all of those arrangements! I’m so glad you covered all of the New Zealand greats!
I got to see Allen Vizzutti live a couple times! He is an absolute technical marvel
He's Mr. Relaxed.
Hi, I'm a long lapsed tuba player just taking it back up and I love your channel. Very informative and low key funny. Keep up the good work!
Cabbage!
I loved playing the Arban's version of this tune when I was in High School. It's a solo, but I think it would make a great concerto.
“Cabbage of Venus.”
Played using Brussels sprouts.
Cabbage. Honestly you did a superb job of playing everything and I envy your restraint in the end. Consequently I have been inspired to fumble with my cornet once more
No one:
Comments: C A B B A G E
It’s cabbage
Cabbage
I've only attempted the Arban version, and I should practice it some more...
I've tried it. It's too hard
I always enjoy your videos - your're hilarious, informative, and execute everything nicely. This one was definitely an undertaking, and I'm proud of you for doing it.

CABBAGE! Fantastic stuff, Trent. I'm appreciating your videos from Green Valley, Arizona, where in July it is summer here and 106º. Thank you.
I can see the effort that went into making this video. Thank you, Trent!

Two years later: Cabbage. I love your videos and your collection, but the tasteful humor is what keeps me coming back haha
Yay, Mr. Hamilton! I always enjoy your presentations and talented performances.
Cabbage, of course!

Cabbage...... What a genuinely good vid.. finally nice to see a TH-camr with a bit of humility
Thanks Trent! I Enjoy playing the baritone to much to do all the research and demonstration you've done for this video! Thanks Again,
Dan
I love these videos, keep up the great work, I can't wait for all of your 2020 videos!
Cabbage! I'm working through the backlog of your videos, having just recently found your channel. Started playing tuba 45 years ago and haven't been the same since!
Cabbage, I love how you looked back as you achieved to play the last note on minute 14.58!
12:45 The version showing here appears like it was written by someone whose puppy was run over by an entire brass marching band, and the music is their act of vengeance.
EDIT: CABBAGE!
Very entertaining and educational. Love your descriptive delivery and wonderful playing. Thanks Trent.

Well done with the Vizutti theme! I had not realised so many classical masters hailed from the “Land of the Long White Cloud”. Fascinating!
The Carnival of Venice is one of my favorite pieces of cabbage out there to play.
Cabbage! This was fascinating! I once attempted to teach myself the Clarke version of CoV over the course of 3-4 years, but never had the chance to perform the entire thing. I always wondered what the differences are in all the versions. Great job!
Cabbage, what a player you are Trent. You are also so humble and it's really amazing to watch
GREAT VIDEO TRENT AND HAPPY NEW YEARS
Eating a cabbage whilst listening to you nail some of Venus!
Dude! You're killin it 💪 how long did you work on these versions? Don't tell me you just picked em up and played em for us cold
Eric Rakes what about cabbage?
Corned beef and CABBAGE are great together; same goes for your videos and artistry....also great. Thanks!
Cabbage: both the music and the vegetable - my hat is off to you for even trying. Happy New Year
Cabbage. And the duet from the Pearl Fishers is without question one of my favorite to sing. Perfect for two horns. Anyway, this was a brilliant video! Incredibly well played and totally points out why vocalists are gobsmacked by instrumentalists!
GREAT VIDEO TRENT AND HAPPY NEW YEARS (CABBAGE)
Cabbage. What a bonkers set of variations, kudos to you to even attempting them!
I love corned beef and cabbage. This vid made me laugh! Thanks
I guess I’m a cabbage. Haven’t played Carnival in years although I did really only stick to Arban and Clarke when I did.
Hats off to you Trent for the performances and any of that last version. Reminded me a little of a particular trumpet concerto with horrific intervals. Great as a technical piece to really show off ability but then starts to lose any listeners enjoyment due to it complexity.
this was another great video brought to by cabbage. Amazing work as usual
Enjoyed a journey through the cabbage while watching this!
Well played Trent, Good playing can I suggest a video on how you developed your ability to play high register and how you maintain it. Cabbage and happy New Year
Cabbage. Amazing work by you, Trent. Thank you for sharing it!
But as many have said, you are a bloody genius. I would not be able to come up to your standard in a million years.
Trent, I commented recently that many of your performances in these videos seem rushed. That is NOT the case here. Your tone is lovely, and your phrasing is sensitive and musical. Beautiful. I can tell the Euphonium is your main instrument.
Murphy's law: Anything that can go wrong will go wrong.
Cole's law: thinly sliced cabbage!

Deep thoughts: We buried him so he's probably also not with us.
Cabbage.

I can't remember the notes exactly but it ran up to 5 lines above the top to a jump down to 5 lines below the bottom.
Cabbage. Learned some things about a favorite piece. Thank-you.
Don't sell yourself short; you're a pleasure to listen to, and your comments are far more satisfying than cabbage.
Cabbage. I think that's what you said. I watched it to the end. Very interesting!
Great stuff, Trent. very interesting.
Cabbage. Basically of you can play arban you're a great player ready for most music. If you can play all the various versions of this perfectly you're ready for all music.
Cabbage. Love your videos! Keep up the most excellent work! :)
CABBAGE....excellent playing Trent...excellent.
Brilliant Mr. Hamilton!!
Wow, that last version by Alan "Cabbage Man" Vizzutti is intimidating.
always appreciate a good video to eat cabbage to
Cabbage. My brother played the Staigers version with full band accompaniment as a junior in high school. He was amazing. It broke our band director's heart when he turned down music scholarships to prepare for the ministry. All in all, he made the right choice for him.
Cabbage. Awesome job, Trent!
Cabbage. Very well played Trent!
Took me about 10 months to watch this but the ending was worth the cabbage.
I find the Arban variations to be my favorite from experience playng them
Would you make a video on old trombone and baritone books such as rochut Arbans and others and where to get them.
Another book is schlossberg

Dude that long triple tonging section was so clean, nice work!!
P.S. cabbage
Nothing like listening to Carnival of Venice while eating a cabbage!
Amazing. Thanks.
Cabbage
5:20 when you try flight of the bumblebee for the first time
Neutron Yt why is everyone putting cabbage
Nothing goes better together than brass, Italian folk music, and cabbage. I call that an average Friday night
Cabbage. I can’t Believe that I found sheet music finally for the carnival of Venus I’ve listen to it several times before but I’ve always wondered what the sheet music looked like I know you showed a lot of the sheet music for Carnaval a Venus but I was also wondering if you would be able to show the sections you didn’t show like the octave double jump portion in the very end of the peace
And the final flourish too
Cabbage. I think you gave that last version a pretty good go. Well done.
Why didn't you include the version of Mr. Claude Abbage?
Nice vid! I played (attempted) the Clarke version in college around 1989 and after seeing this I may just bust it out again. Cabbage. Cabbages for everyone!
cabbage. Thank you from Pittsburgh, PA
Cabbage. Very good video and explanation.
Amazing playing! For a cabbage that is!
Cabbage. I'm a jazz sax player, but love your videos Trent! BTW, Vizzuti is one hell of a player, eh?
What version did u play on the trombone? - Cabbage
Cabbage,and what is that song you played in the intro.
Niccolo Paganini (Italian), Franz Liszt (Hungarian)...I had no idea there were New Zealander counterparts, Nick Paganini and Frank Liszt, you sure about all that?!
Shh, it's a "controversy", one of Frank Liszt's parents was from _Australia!_ Don't draw any more attention to it!
Cabbage
Hes just joking
This was an absolute pleasure to watch. Cabbage.
trenty boi back at it again
Cabbage!! 😁😁 I couldnt possibly stop watching once Ive started! 🤩🤩
2:01 who is cabbage
Cabbage! Always enjoy when you play! Keep up the good work! :D
No lie, the first time I had cabbage, my thought was, "Where's this stuff been all my life? It's great!"
I do really enjoy the cabbage of Venice myself
Cabbage always steals the show in a good soup.
Cabbage! and Allen Vizzutti is nuts.
