I play guitar. When I was a teenager I was listening to a Metallica album with a friend and my mom came walking in "Wow, you're finally starting to sound ok at that thing... oh, is that a CD? Nevermind." and walked out. lol
That's what wives R4: To keep us humble. Husband: look, listen, I've got flight of the bumblebee down solid at 200 clicks a minute. Wife: whatever. Did you see Oprah today, it was about people with really mis-shaped heads. ( Wife then stares at husband intently).
Sergey’s playing defeats all the regulations/ requirements and physics in trumpet playing. His sheer talent and contributions in modern era instrumental music is enormous
8:12 He played that variation so clean I didn't even realize it was Carnival of Venice. Normally you can hear slight inconsistencies in the triple tonguing when others play it, which gives it away
Your not supposed to change your corners/embouchure at all to avoid cracking notes and playing out of tune. Your jaw tongue and aur to change notes. That is the main reason he is such a phenomenal player.
Wrong. He can only play one style and he doesn't have the range to play the Brandenburg No. 2, or to do any kind of big band lead playing or commercial screaming. He's the best at articulation. Being a great double and triple tonguer doesn't make someone the best at everything. Don't get crazy with it, for cryin' out loud.
@@artvandelay8090 He has the most clarity out of any other trumpeter. And it is true he plays one style. But others can’t circular breathe while double tonging or triple tonguing. Others can’t jump intervals like him. I’m 100% sure he can play the Brandenburg 2 if he tried he did a bit of piccolo playing. Also the other musicians who you compared him with weren’t soloists with orchestras at 12 years old or selling thousands and thousands of albums in their teens.
@@trumpetaceman7806 If he could play Brandenburg No. 2, he would and he would have recorded it. But he hasn't. You know why? It's 'cause he can't. Everyone who can play it, plays it. It's a rite of passage in the classical world. And I'm not impressed by circular breathing and diarrhea of the notes. There's this thing in music called "phrasing." Run on notes ad nauseum with an absence of phrasing is just downright unmusical. Yes, all of his fancy articulations and big interval jumps are acrobatic and impressive........for a few minutes. After a while, it's as boring as all get-out.
@@trumpetaceman7806 And another thing -- There's a video on RUclips of Sergei playing "Carnival of Venice" with its theme and variations. The end of that composition is iconic with a two-octave scalewise progression up to high F. Every great trumpet player who has ever played that composition has played that final passage up to the high F---except for Sergei. You know why? It's because he CAN'T. Ruben Simeo used to go up to that high F back when he was 8 years old. So just think, Sergei is what, in his 40s? He's been playing trumpet for a long time and yet, an 8-YEAR-OLD kid has a better range than has Sergei. And you consider him the greatest? Naah, not by a longshot. Playing high might not be EVERYTHING, but if someone is the greatest in the world, then he can do it all, including playing high. It's gotten to the point that every time I click to hear something by Sergei he goes right into all of that run-on ad-nauseum multiple tonguing crap with the takatakatakatakatakatakataka bup pah dup pah duh and I just want to say, aaaah, SHUT-UP! Sometimes you just want to hear someone go soaring up into the stratosphere with something high, wide, and wonderful playing lyrical, beautiful, and emotionally moving. That's just something that Sergei cannot do. He's too one-dimensional. He would sound ridiculous trying to play jazz. And even though he's a classical player, he can't even play all of he classical repertoire as I've already mentioned. So if you want to talk about the greatest trumpet player on the face of the earth, the word, "versatility" has to be among the qualifying criteria. And with that said, there is only one clear answer. It's hands-down, slam-dunk, the one and only, Doc Severinsen.
Dear RUclips - how do I make sure this guy’s videos do not directly precede or follow my videos? I don’t want his stuff anywhere near mine. 🤣. Insane, superhuman playing.
The horns and mouthpieces sound fantastic and of course, we must give some credit to possibly one of the best to ever touch a trumpet, maestro, Sergei Nakariakov, the 8th Wonder of the World!
These are all wonderful horns and mouthpieces however I just couldn't get into noticing their differences because I was just so enthralled by Sergei's incredible playing; so fluid, so relaxed, so impossible! I don't know how he does it, I just accept the fact he makes it happen! He is certainly one of the finest trumpet players of all time! I would say he could take a mouthpiece, a piece of water hose and a funnel and sound better than anything we could ever play! Bravo Sergei!
My favorite trumpet player! I have played the trumpet for 50+ years ; own 200+ mouthpieces and 25 horns, so I KNOW what i'm talking about! Sergei you are THE best, PERIOD.
@@ethanrackliff5947 - Yup, a piano was his (and his father's) instrument of choice before an auto accident at age 9 made it impossible to sit down at the piano. This is mentioned in the hour long documentary "No More Wunderkind": ruclips.net/video/wTVf5qSeyQg/видео.html, starting at 4:30.
Wouldn't it be great for Sergei to make an Arban album using AR Resonance equipment?! I about died when Sergei crushed Arban's Tyrolean variations (11:26) - so good!
Отлично! Chapeau to the great musician S. Nakaryakov. Trumpeters worldwide, owe him alot for the promotion of the art of trumpet. His big collection is superb, his playing is fabulous. It makes sense: Make more brass instruments instead of weapons.
Dude is incredibly good...like from another world good. It’s like when the aliens show up on Earth, kicking ass and dominating the dojo. I’m not saying Sergei’s from outer space, but if he shows up at an ITG conference and says, “take me to your leader,” be ready for fireworks. Amazing talent!!
Wow this guy can play. Just joined. Picked up my trumpet after 38 years and after just watching this I had to go practice. My 6 practice and I still left sound horrible, but after listening to this it was the best practice I've had yet. This guy just inspired me!
In his interviews Sergei's talked about how he double/triple tongues while circular breathing by replacing the "k" with a softer consonant -- with something like a "h." If you play the video at half speed you can clearly hear the change in his tonal quality. Pretty amazing stuff, but I don't think it's impossible to learn how to do this.
Sergei is incredible. I have been listening since I started seriously playing trumpet about 20 years now. So nice dude. Thank you! You are one of my favorite trumpet players!
ALL has to do with concentration and playing the center of every single note. Sounds easy and actually is except for the fact that no other player on the planet has agreed to put in the kind of disciplined work that Sergei has. Nothing here is too high, or too fast that can't be solved with supreme focus. Check out 3:00...I was just off stage listening to him play this at ITG in Miami...it DOES NOT STOP...I hugged him immediately afterward and thanked him for being such a beacon of talent. He thanked me but looked a little confused. Ladies and gentlemen, this is is because Sergei Nakariakov focuses only on the moment at hand. That stage moment was over and that is why he is so good. If more trumpet players would do that, they would improve...if they did it a lot, they would improve immensely. Sergei simply does not let mistakes go by when practicing. I have sat beside him backstage and on stage and his level of relaxed concentration is the ticket...I'm sure your horns are great and only help make Sergei's job even easier!!!
jens lindemann Thanks a lot Jens, I totally agree about Sergei, but this is Antonio Rapacciuolo, the guy behind AR Resonance Trumpets. Adam Rapa’s things are made to look like my trumpets on purpose and this is causing a lot of problems because people think my trumpets, played by some of the best players on this planet, are his trumpets. I design, prototype, test and actually make my trumpets and mouthpieces. This can’t be said of Rapa’s things. Next time we’ll meet I’ll be happy to make you try my horns. :) (I was there at the ITG watching Sergei playing that crazy piece of music)
When I see a Sergei video pop up on my recommendations, I drop everything and watch the entire video....and now...I am once again absolutely blown away by his genius....Thanks sooo much for posting...(Now I better go practice...lol)
Beautiful horns! Congrats on designing for Sergei Nakariakov! In my opinion he is both the best living trumpet player and the greatest player of all time. Super cool video!
Wonderful sound. Will have to check out your low brass mouthpieces. The right mouthpiece can make a huge difference in your playing. The instruments sound wonderful as well. A testament to their craftsmanship and the talent of the player. Marry the 2 and the results are beautiful. Well done.
The Russians have always produced grand virtuosos in all the arts - especially in music and dance. Of course their literature is nothing to shake at either.
Beautiful, flawless and very entertaining...thanks for the post. Feels like I was there right in the room checking out the instruments. BTW where these instruments can be tried in US?
my technicality isn't my strong suit but i practice it everyday to hopefully have it as strong as my lyrical playing when playing any fast passages i try to sound like sergei nakariakov
It's great to hear someone go through my warmup routine.

Nor will they care.

Sergey’s playing defeats all the regulations/ requirements and physics in trumpet playing. His sheer talent and contributions in modern era instrumental music is enormous
paddy power just get the tonguing and embouchure first, we rush kids through lame wind ensemble curriculums for lame Christmas concerts
We all know how important is the right use of posture and diaphragm in trumpet or and wind instruments playing right?
paddy power well I see kids get moved forward who haven’t understood how to articulate in a basic way, and thus never figure it out
Thus they never learn to sound natural
8:12 He played that variation so clean I didn't even realize it was Carnival of Venice. Normally you can hear slight inconsistencies in the triple tonguing when others play it, which gives it away
Check out the Bersaglieri.
Search "running band"
I can listen all day long to this. Wish he was my neighbour
110dB you won't.
Amazing how effortlessly he plays while barely changing his embouchure
Your not supposed to change your corners/embouchure at all to avoid cracking notes and playing out of tune. Your jaw tongue and aur to change notes. That is the main reason he is such a phenomenal player.
Such a phenomenal player and so cool to see such a long clip in an impromptu setting. The tonguing and accuracy and facility is insane!
On of the best trumpet players in the history of music
He is literally the best brass player to ever live . Trumpet repertoire was too easy he plays cello concertos
