Loved the video. My parents bought me my first (and only) YAMAHA trombone (model YSL-641) in 1975 for $350 new... it was listed as $480. I was a sophomore in high school and absolutely loved it. I still play when I can, and it is still in beautiful condition. Great slide action and wonderful tone. Thank you YAMAHA for years of playing pleasure!
After he introduces himself as the bass trombonist with the Boston Symphony, the music that suddenly appears is the 1st movement of Rimsky-Korsakov's concerto for trombone.
Ive lost count of the number of times I’ve watched this video since I first came across it sometime during high school, maybe ‘07 or ‘08. My parents gifted me a YSL-646 for my senior year of high school. I’ll never part with that trombone. Yamaha will always be my go-to for brass
I was introduced to the bass trombone on a Bach/dependent valve. It was school property so when I got to Giardinelli's I was shown a Yamaha, ind. valves F-D. It blew so freely that I didn't even try a Bach . It was more in line with my budget, and it has served me well. Yamaha is a fine instrument and I can see A. Raph's imprint on Mr. Yeo. God Bless and Happy Holidays to all.
I love yamaha. I just got a new yamaha bass trombone from my school because they want me in jazz. I have never been more amazed with the sound of an instrument.
been coming back to watch this video for 10 years! it's great! I play a medium bore horn and wanna get a large bore or bass trombone one day! Yamaha makes some great Instruments and many of my friends have em! such a cool process and it's amazing to see them getting made! love ol Doug Yeo! He's a cool dude! good stuff, man! ❤😁👍🏻
I played Yamaha instruments (mainly Tubas) for nearly 30 years. Never was disappointed and they performed brilliantly. I played the Yeo Bass Trombone in College (borrowed from my low brass instructor) and was impressed. I was comparable to the Bach Stradivarius 50 Series I was accustomed to playing. Hopefully, I will get the chance to own the hard to get YCB-861 or YCB-836. If your choosing a student model instrument for your child, consider Yamaha. Quality and Value are never compromised. You will never be disappointed. 2 thumbs up.
My apologies I meant a Yamaha Bass Trombone (not sure even if Yes Models were available 24 years ago but it looked similar). I tried to edit my comments but RUclips keeps closing unexpectedly when I try. So much for the tech giants.
Highly thanked the explorer of the video. The factory has given more pleasure about a musical instrument me. Long live the staff of the factory and officials. I am from India. Thanks more and more.
Ok, I have finished with 15 additional professionals that use Yamaha as there primary instrument. For those interested I also added the two mentioned in your post, Ko-Ichiro Yamamoto and Larry Zalkind. I could easily double this list but I don't have the time to do so at the point. "That's what everyone plays" Is the kind of statement that can be refuted with little difficulty.
Ohhh yesss... Watching that lacquer pour onto those trombones in that glowing chamber of light and gold is like watching the rotisserie chicken at a supermarket. It even makes me salivate.
17. Larry Zalkind - Larry has released two solo CDs on the Summit Records label, with a third on the way next year. His first CD, Larry Zalkind Plays Baroque Music on the Trombone, features Baroque music on the trombone in different settings; his second, Encore!, features different types of encores performed with trombone and piano.

As a trombonist who plays a Yamaha trigger trombone, I can confirm these are excellent instruments, but a company doesn't determine how fast the slide is, it depends what lube your using, and if your instrument has a straight slide, and how fast you as a player can move it.
5. Wayne Coniglio - Wayne enjoyed being Bass Trombonist and a featured soloist with the international super star Ray Charles.

I have been looking to buy a trombone with an f attachment recently. Courtois and Yamaha are the only ones that I'd want to buy from. But this video seals the deal, I want to go with Yamaha. Thanks
Japan makes things that work... Cars, instruments, robots, etc. I would not trust a trumpet from China as much as I would trust a Russian car. Unlike in America and other countries which often outsource important work (some companies don't even make all the parts like Yamaha does), Japan tends to do all the important, and high quality work in their actual country. This is why they dominate in selling cars. This is why their instruments are so good. Guitar, brass, woodwinds. Did you know, the only other country that Peats it's whiskey (other than Scotland) is Japan? Sake is the typical and national drink- honed over thousands of years. Scotch is not native to Japan; but after being introduced to it by settlers, it barely took them a few DECADES to replicate the process and come up with amazing whiskey. Other than Scotland, whiskey experts all will to ell you JAPAN has the best whiskey out there. Canada used to make good Rye whiskey, but not anymore. Now, it's Japan making such high quality stuff. Even if I never played trombone (I play trumpet myself), I would buy Yamaha. Hell, if I was buying any product and I just so happened to see 'made in Japan', I would know that it is a good product. Now, if it says made in China, BEWARE!
15. Douglas Yeo - Bass trombonist of the Boston Symphony Orchestra since 1985, Douglas Yeo is a respected performer, teacher, writer and conductor. His solo recordings, "Two of a Mind," "Cornerstone," "Take 1," "Proclamation," Douglas Yeo worked closely with Yamaha in the development of the YBL-622 bass trombone and the Yamaha Douglas Yeo Signature Series Bass Trombone Mouthpiece.
It's a YSL-682B (B for Ian Bousfield), also made a YSL-682G (regular valve). the 682B valve works almost the same/similar as the tru-bore and the Lindberg valve (except the airflow is opposite).
A Yamaha trombone is what I play in high school band, they truly are great instruments. My trombone is the lightest of the ensemble I am in, which consists mostly of Bach and Cleveland trombones. My slide moves the quickest, and is usually the closest to being perfectly in tune. It can also take the abuse of Marching Band with that one-piece bell. Mine is a Tenor, so it is fairly basic.
As a t-bone player myself, I couldn't agree more. I play in a community band now and every time we practice(especially if the piece features a strong t-bone presence), I see other band members looking in envy as we soar, wishing they had made the choice to choose it as their instrument. All around, it simply surpasses all others. It is the instrument most like the human voice and they are greatest in a chorale.
This was interesting and enjoyable to watch. Hey Doug, we share the same surname but I am not a bit musicale so you are the musically talented one of my suddenly extended family. Pleased to make your acquaintance lol.
This is a Buccin. You can do a Google image search and will find many varieties. On Yeo's website he gives a lot of details to the one he owns, follow this link and scroll towards and bottom of the page. www.yeodoug.com/articles/trombone_gallery/trombone_gallery.html
I think maybe two pros play Yamaha, Ko-Ichiro Yamamoto of the Seattle Symphony and Larry Zalkind of the Utah Symphony. Yamaha, Bach, and Conn have been far outclassed by Edwards, S.E. Shires, and Greenhoe. That's what everyone plays. With a few exceptions like the Metropolitan Opera trombones who all play Courtois.
I played trombone and rode the bus. They made me put the trombone up front by the door. Everytime they opened the door, my trombone would go sailing out the opening. It discouraged me so much, I quit after the first year.
very interesting, i play the guitar. my first guitar was a yamaha SE 200. you could take it to war and back. and it would give you back change. i still have it, needs a refret id put it up against any custom axe to this day. but then it is like a old pair of jeans that just fit.. ill end up taking that old beater to my grave. its in retirement for now. im considering bringing her back to life for my 40th birthday. sorta rare to have our first instrument after all these years. just glad i never got rid of it. probably because it was never worth anything. LOL. the pickups are from a 64 strat. sad to think the pickups are worth more than the guitar as a whole will ever be. yamaha is buying a lot of company's as of late, just recently buying line 6. they are trying to take over the music industry ?? by offering the best bang for your buck ( this has always been there mato tho from my experience with the company. not as appreciated in the USA i think as over seas. not sure why..), like they have always. thanks for the very interesting video. my sister was first chair clarinet all through high school and went to state for marching band etc. keep on making music. :) p.s the lizard horn may be consider cool by the cool kids in school. :D

I have a Yamaha YSL 232S that I've owned since 1978 and it's terrific
Sounds like this might have been the instrument you used In school.
Not quite as I'd left school 4 years earlier
I still have my Conn Cornet, my first instrument from 1969. I don't think I'll ever get ride of it.
MrSilverTrumpet my Yamaha YSL 232S is still my main horn and like you with your Conn cornet I'm never going to tire of playing it

Fun drinking game. Take a shot every time Mr. Yeo says 'Yamaha trombone'!
A Yamaha trombone is what I play in high school band, they truly are great instruments. My trombone is the lightest of the ensemble I am in, which consists mostly of Bach and Cleveland trombones. My slide moves the quickest, and is usually the closest to being perfectly in tune. It can also take the abuse of Marching Band with that one-piece bell. Mine is a Tenor, so it is fairly basic.
Thanks for taking the time and writing a great testimonial.
I play a Yamaha trombone in the

Play on a Yamaha YSL-882OR Xeno, love it!
面白い！！
これを見ると今まで以上に
ボーンを大切にしたくなる
As a t-bone player myself, I couldn't agree more. I play in a community band now and every time we practice(especially if the piece features a strong t-bone presence), I see other band members looking in envy as we soar, wishing they had made the choice to choose it as their instrument.
All around, it simply surpasses all others. It is the instrument most like the human voice and they are greatest in a chorale.
2:16 anyone know what CAD software he's using?
very interesting to see
Rimsky Korsakov's Concerto for Trombone, it's played pretty fast though!
This was interesting and enjoyable to watch. Hey Doug, we share the same surname but I am not a bit musicale so you are the musically talented one of my suddenly extended family. Pleased to make your acquaintance lol.
how many piece is to make a bell trombone
What is the song right after Doug introduces himself and the bone is playing with the orchestra?? Is it Concertino by David? I forgot.
Rimsly Koroskov concerto
What is that trombone Doug gives to the play-tester at 11:13?
It has an odd, over-sized valve.
Trombone is and will always be the greatest brass instrument.

Fastest rendition of Rimsky Korsakov's Concerto for Trombone I have ever heard Haha!
Is that "Scipio" at 10:00
have you not heard of THE Wycliffe Gordon?!
@trombonebro I meant the contra bass trombone
Whats the piece he plays on the f bass bone?
+jazzman99000 Brahms Symphony No. 1 in C minor, OP. 68: IV. Adagio - Piu andante - Allegro non troppo, ma con brio- PIU allegro
+jazzman99000 brahm 1
what is the name of the tune at 0:50?
Does yamaha even make a soprano? They keep showing them in the video
i have a question, does a brass instrument improve sound wise with age?
thanks.
chris.
yes.
Kahlil Wyatt actually they don't. The only things that affect it over time is the lacquer, finish and how it is maintained.
10:23 hey that’s the type of trombone I have
That pretty neat, getting to watch a process of how your trombone was made.
HELL YA TURN UP THE BASS
I play trombone, it is simply the best!
i love him! hes like a little kid in a candy shop lmfao
I think maybe two pros play Yamaha, Ko-Ichiro Yamamoto of the Seattle Symphony and Larry Zalkind of the Utah Symphony. Yamaha, Bach, and Conn have been far outclassed by Edwards, S.E. Shires, and Greenhoe. That's what everyone plays. With a few exceptions like the Metropolitan Opera trombones who all play Courtois.
Korsakov's concerto was a good choice.
It looks kinda like Yamaha's version of the Trubore valve
Yo, Yeo
i couldnt play the buccin only because the bell is what i use to tell most slide positions
That moment when they play Scipio in the background...
I play the trombone
mouthpiece @7:06
When he said trombones are hard to carry on a bus I laughed. I play a Baritone Sax, Now that is hard to take on a bus
I play three instruments, so I once had to bus with a baritone (one with an extra fat case) and a trombone in a very small public bus.
Olá queria muito ganhar um trombone só que eu não tenho condições financeiras para comprar alguém de vocês poderiam me ajudar?
I played trombone and rode the bus. They made me put the trombone up front by the door. Everytime they opened the door, my trombone would go sailing out the opening. It discouraged me so much, I quit after the first year.
clockguy2 what a bummer
It's a custom soprano. I don't think the demand is enough for most companies to produce them.
Tenho um trombone Yamaha ysl-354pra vender
What is the camera man's obsession with this guys eyes
LOL, never noticed.
Doug Yeo appears to not be very comfortable in front of a camera, maybe nerves?
Disagree!
Harrison Reed wut?
He is so cheesey
Hm, I'm a Vincent Bach person myself...
very interesting, i play the guitar. my first guitar was a yamaha SE 200. you could take it to war and back. and it would give you back change. i still have it, needs a refret id put it up against any custom axe to this day. but then it is like a old pair of jeans that just fit.. ill end up taking that old beater to my grave. its in retirement for now. im considering bringing her back to life for my 40th birthday. sorta rare to have our first instrument after all these years. just glad i never got rid of it. probably because it was never worth anything. LOL. the pickups are from a 64 strat. sad to think the pickups are worth more than the guitar as a whole will ever be. yamaha is buying a lot of company's as of late, just recently buying line 6. they are trying to take over the music industry ?? by offering the best bang for your buck ( this has always been there mato tho from my experience with the company. not as appreciated in the USA i think as over seas. not sure why..), like they have always. thanks for the very interesting video. my sister was first chair clarinet all through high school and went to state for marching band etc. keep on making music. :) p.s the lizard horn may be consider cool by the cool kids in school. :D
