Makes me feel like Brahms wrote it for us trumpet players! You guys are great!👏👏👏

[@thomassicard3733]

I aspire to such great trumpet playing. 3 years in, now. Decades of world-class level French horn, but I am now doing the trumpet dance.
Brandon is a MAJOR inspiration and model for my goals.

Does anyone know where I can find this music?

[@alessandrobonotto6045]

It's available for free on IMSLP. Just google: Brahms Sonatensatz imslp. It's the scherzo under "F-A-E Sonata (Various)".

[@HAMILTON994]

Alessandro Bonotto Thanks that helped a lot

[@yusukeundisolde]

Alessandro Bonotto thank you very much.

Bradon you amazing player but i think that you play class with jazz voice and this ok but strange

[@thomassicard3733]

Hmmm... I hear a wonderfully complete and rounded sound production from Brandon, with amazing diversification of tonal coloring - on command - from Brandon.
What "class" sound have you been conditioned to accept as such? Jazz = well rounded? 'Classical'/legit = bright and tinny? - No, no... that's usually referred to as "Commercial".
In FACT, the Houston Symphony Ballet Orchestra has a very special mouthpiece designed for their trumpeters, so as not to be TOO BRIGHT and CRASS - it's warmer and more balanced (in my opinion - but what do I know? - I play the BIGGEST TRUMPET MOUTHPIECE MADE!!! - and it sounds like God).
"jazz voice" - Brandon does not sound, in this recording, ANYTHING like a "jazz voice" trumpeter. He sounds like a badass musician.
