I can't imagine how long a soloist would stay all smiles after how much Maynard complimented your performance on the field.. a lifetime? Wow..
That would be a dream come true, wouldn't it?
I feel very fortunate to have had Maynard blast his horn in my face. Walking through the crowd blowing out solos. Incredible performance.
2 LEGENDS! They have both left so much to their art. I met Maynard a few times at clinics and his touring shows. Jerry and I had our history too! He became a great friend, instructor, teacher and mentor....I wish I would have had more time with Jerry.....
Sounds like he needed some warm up time but who cares, Maynard was THE MAN! RIP Boss.
PS: in 79 I was in college marching band, doing my best to sound like him. Some of the most fun I've ever had.
Maynard was just such a great guy all around. Not just an icon of the trumpet but down to earth and friendly and respectful to all the people he encountered. No wonder he has such die hard and vocal fans!
Maynard was a monster player. I was fortunate enough to get a 30 minute lesson from him. A true master who was never appreciated enough.
Love Maynard. What a great performer, and a great human being! Gone, but never forgotten.
I actually had Maynard in my car when I picked him and his crew up at the hotel to bring him to our college to play a clinic and a concert with our stage band. I think that was 1986.
This is great the history the happiness I played soprano for 6 rehearsals the drum instructor found out I was the brother of drum Corps drummer and drafted me to the drumline I played drum corps percussion for 19 years. Snare for my last 12 years.
Cool. Which corps?
I met the man a few times and opened for him. He is as nice as they come. May his music live on.
Maynard came to my high school in mid/late 80’s. It was so awesome. We help unload and load the tour bus.
Uggh I wish I met Maynard! Never got to meet him but that's how life goes. The videos of him talking are always great ones. Thank you for posting this! :)
Rip Jerry Noonan,
Soliest for North Star and an amazing talent
Wow really!?!?! What happened to him may I ask? He was one of the reasons why I picked up the trumpet, it hurts my heart to hear that!!!
@@Westsideauditor1469 Francis Gerard “Jerry” Noonan, of Medford, formerly of Arlington. Passed away peacefully at his home surrounded by his loving family on September 24, 2020, at the age of 61, after a short and courageous battle with Pancreatic Cancer.
@@c3dmf4s Sad to hear that. As good as 79 was, I think I loved 80 even better. Tons of courage to be out in the open like that and all eyes on you.
5:40 -- Predecessor of Matthew Ware (who was on the cover of Drum Corps News in the early 80s -- 1983? 1984? -- at about the same age, emulating the Archer-Epler Musketeers at DCA Championships)
What they're really saying with the 2 valve bugle is drum corps is only 117 years behind the 3 valve trumpet which was invented in 1862.
might be 117 yrs behind but much better fuller sound
@@charlesgerlach7059 No one believes that
@@charlesgerlach7059 lmao you wish
I love this! 🔥🔥🔥
Maynard was the man
I see 2 times in Puerto Rico 1 in 80's and other in 90's he was Artist like a Rock Star , the other is Doc Severinsen .😃
My experience is that a bugle is more difficult to play than a trumpet. I wonder if Maynard found that out as well, since he didn't sound as good on the bugle?
Yes he did.
I don’t think he realized the bugle was pitched in G. As you see when he grabbed it, he tried to continue on in the same overtone series as his trumpet. Tried to force pitches that weren’t there, realized it pretty quick and tapped out. 🤣
@@cairnman100 Exactly. It was like trying to play a concert B-flat scale on a trumpet without knowing that the third valve is stuck down. He was effectively trying to play a concert B-flat with the 3rd valve stuck down. His ear knew where the note should be but the overtone series slot wasn't there and he was forcing the pitch to where it should be with his lip.
IT'S A BABY BLUE DEVIL AWWWW
He’s adorable, i’ve never seen a baby blue devil conducting so passionately in my life
Good job, Jerry!
Miss Boss. 😪
that was cool.
I know it’s a bit off topic but jeez, imagine doing an exhausting show only to spend another 3 minutes preforming your entire parade cadence at the end…….
Hey man, don't you know? The drumline is like the Energizer Bunny. 😎🥁
I'm a brass player. It sounds like even Maynard needs to warm-up first to sound decent. I remember picking up a G-Contrabass bugle for the first time. It takes a little while to get used to the feel of the overtone partials on an instrument based on open G when you are accustomed to a Bb horn. Maynard somehow forced a Bb out of the G bugle played open because of his incredible ability.
BTW, Maynard joined us after the show to help us celebrate. He wailed away on Larry's horn.
Hi from Puerto Rico, can you put Maynards concert in your Chad
WOW. when was the last time you saw a G bugle on a DCI stage
Anyone know if the baby marched?
I think he was the son of a staffer....if I can remember his name, I'll ask in the alum group.
Good question!!!
So....he was the son of one of the percussion staff. No one knows if he ever marched.
@@samsignorelli What years did you march Sam? My brother aged out in 1980. Snare in BD.
@@cindywarnerKAC0507 I was a rook-out...soprano 1984 (I get a nice camera pass at 0:53 in that show...full beard and glasses.
It sounds like Maynard was trying play notes not in the partial series of the key he was trying to play in. Takes a minute to get used to G bugle overtones when you're used to playing open overtones in the key of Bb.
The man's upper lip is so rock hard that it hardly moves when he talks.
Maynard loves innovation. Very open-minded.
Rondinaro's explanation pretty lame. It's just like the first 2 valves on a trumpet. Only missing the 3rd valve. That's all that needs to ve said.
Man didn’t know they used 2 valves back then.
They use 2 valves today too. Well, and a third valve also. But 2 valves are definitely in frequent use.
Not amplification, what a novel conception.
You lost me at Disco ..
