I have watched Allen lay it out since his college days! We don't know how he does it, we just accept the fact he does! Never have I heard anyone play sixteenth notes and every other note is a two octave jump! He is incredible and doesn't even look like he is working hard! 🎺🎵🎶👍
The first time I heard him was with Woody in the mid late 70's Danny D was on drums. I know Danny some. He had been playing with Maynard. He said to me during the intermission, "check this out." I was blown away. Woody had a pretty tight group then. Jim Pugh was on trombone, Danny on drums, Dennis Dobson, and Allen playing trumpet. 😎😎
@@brucehehl5688 Yes indeed Bruce! Woody had some great bands, didn't he! I remember when Dave Stahl was playing lead trumpet with Woody. They would play the Carol King piece "Corizon". It started soft and kept building. Stahl would smack that double high "A" and blow the wall down! My where did the time go? Have a Great Day! 🎺🎶🎵

I saw Allen way back, it was around 1975ish and he was playing with, It was Woodie Herman's band. It was at Shaw high school gym in Metairie Louisiana, just outside New Orleans. I heard someone play trumpet like I never heard before. I didn't know who he was, and I only saw him from the side. But some how his facial structure stayed with me. I'm on youtube and just to the right of the page there's a video of him and one of them looks like what I remember him looking like. So as the internet came along, some years back I started watching videos of Maynard Ferguson and don't you know a video popped up with the guy I remembered from the side view and I'll be damn it was the face of that guy I saw playing the horn back then that I never knew. It was Allen. I was a local trumpet player myself from New Orleans. So when I saw it I said self that's the guy. Until now I didn't know he was 2 years younger than me. So when I saw him he was around 22. With that said I have followed him ever since. Great trumpet player
Allen is a god. My jaw is always on the floor.
Allen Vizzutti is the one that I can't figure out what he does to seem so effortles in playing what ever high or low he ever plays. Master of art. Damn, one can only praise.
Bone player keeps watching, smiling, shaking his head, thinking, "I know this guy isn't human cause that's not possible!"
His tone is one of a kind, and it’s like that at all dynamic levels, and throughout his useful range, which is ridiculous and very, I repeat very very rare. Most guys can either play super high, with crappy articulations and crappy tone, or they can’t play high, but have a great sound in middle and low register. Allen Vizzuti consistently plays all over the horn with a huge majestic, dream like tone, and does it from the pedal register all the way to notes that most people can only dream of being able to articulate some day lmfao
im one of those people with the range and crappy tone lol im in 9th / concert band and my director gets so mad when i play my 2 octave d and e scale because he says it sounds forced which it does because im really starting to get the hang of bs and (maybe) cs i really only play those for sport. He thinks i cant play high which i understand cause at the beginning of the year i was trash because my 8th grade director quit mid year 😭 im trying to work on my sound up there because to me id rather be able to make a 3 pointer with horrible form because i can always gradually fix the form you know
@@nuclearnacho2468 Important to have a professionally trained teacher, although there are some under the radar embochure doctors out there, one who even builds mouthpieces to suit an individuals dental and lip structure. I’d ask around, I think Freddie Hubbard traveled to Vermont to see a lady, when his chops once crashed
@@nuclearnacho2468 I'd advise against that, playing super high does requires good technique or else you might injure yourself. You really want to avoid that, because if you crashes your chops. You might not be able to play like you used to again ( and not necessarily in a good way, you need your facial muscles to play well )
Best take of this I’ve heard by far, double c at the end is just the cherry on top that I was not expecting at all!
I think he was def in the zone that night. He jumped up to that double c so cleanly.
As a trumpet player, this is mind-blowingly awesome. If there's any guy out there to model your "ideal tone" after, it's this guy.
a really good demonstration of the facial muscles used. I don't think I even own some of them.
Allen is definitely one of the world's best trumpet 🎺 players ❤
MY GOD!!! WOW!!! Haven't seen this until Today and just FLOORED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Totally absolutely right He's like a fine Wine - gets BETTER with age. WHEW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love the story where Allen Vizzutti asked John Madrid "how do you make it look so easy?". What does that say about Madrid's playing! This is a good take of Fire Dance, and popping out the C at the end is a crowning touch.
That C at the end belongs to Donny Dyess 🤓🎺
The fact that he makes it look SO effortless is what's truly shocking. If I could even have a sliver of the talent he had, I would be alright, LMAO.
Allen "the absolute best" Vizzutti! Been a fan of his for over 40 years and he is simply amazing to see and hear in person. He really makes his horns sing so beautifully.
Remember Allen’s high note instructional workouts and lessons back in the 80’s. Even playing lead at times you were looking at the sheet music counting lines to see what some of the notes were. Fun times.
I never tire of watching this. Barely any tension, minimal amount of air for those 16th note 2 octave jumps. This guy is the gold standard across all genres, much like HJ was back in his prime.
HJ?
@@romeoperrin7524 - Harry James!
@@marklewis9749 thanks
He's a monster..... all of us trumpet players know this; Agreed, just accept it... he's a monster.
I had the privilege of hearing him do solo, Carnival of Venice in front of the Washington All- State Choir. The choir, 500 voices, sat there a he simply jumped up on a table in the middle of the gymnasium where they were rehearsing...... jaws on the floor, no kids talking, eyes all on him. Damnest thing I ever heard. Just him, his trumpet on a table, playing the shit out of the Carnival......😊
With those high notes his face is still relaxed . amazing!!!!!
Its just so damn effortless for him. Every not is so clear, both in high parts and in fast parts. The control of his instrument is insane.
DAMN. I’ve watched a lot of videos of him playing Firedance, this is maybe the best one. He was ON IT.
Vizzutti and Louis Dowdwell are the most relaxed high note trumpet players in the world.
There is no such thing. They don't APPEAR to be working hard, but they ARE... trust me, a 50+ year trumpeter
So underrated trumpet player
Unbelievable impressing sound through the complete register...
The whole band watching him... because he's phenomenal!
Hung out with him back in the early 80's after he performed at my University. Chill guy, and with respect to horn playing, an absolute mutant/freak of nature. dude is from another planet.
Ive been listening to this song since I was a trumpet player in highschool over 20 years ago. Still one of my favorites, and this is one of the best recordings too. And still completely mesmerized at the virtuosity on display here, makes me want to start playing again
Allen is the man
Wow - he's really on it. He's always been amazing, but if anything his upper register is improving with age!!!
Totally, he has never stopped getting better
Vizzutti is not a normal human. I mean does he even have to try to be so freaking good?
The master make it looks so easy that he lacks showmanship 😀. Playing trumpet like that is reserved to the gods . 🙌🏾 😶🌫️✨️👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👍🏾👌🏾✨️💯
At first I thought he was miming to a pre-recorded track, so still were his lips and face. Incredible bright and sparkling tone with seemingly little effort, but of course nothing is without effort - probably years of technique and practice training in addition to natural ability.
💯 correct
Have you ever played trumpet?
Thank you for sharing this. In my lifetime, I have seen a lot of trumpet players perform live. Two stand WAY out:
Doc Severinsen --> took my breath away
Allen Vizzutti --> made my jaw drop
Slightly different genre, but I heard Maurice Andre live, once, when I was in my teens but it stays with me to this day.
@@mjd4174 I saw him in college in the early 80s
When you put it all together: tone quality, precision, technical ability, creativity, full range and sound throughout that range. He has to be one of the best, if not the best trumpet player in the world.
@@advancedcaredentistry8828 Personally, I think that at his peak (and he's not far from his peak even at age 70) he was the best wind instrumentalist in the world.
There was Doc, and then Allen!!!
My favorite Allen's tune is 'Fire Dance,' but I was wondering why it's not included.... It sounds so clean and neat! Thanks for uploading the video.
❤ Amazing trumpet technique and power ❤
This is insane! 😮💨
This is truly amazing.
Amazing ! No other word found!! Thank you for posting !
Absolutely phenomenal.
Simply stunning 🤯
Next year he will be doing this same solo using a trombone mouthpiece.
Wow. What a sound! From a different planet.
Amazing performance by Allen!!! Hahaha it's incredible he keeps doing better and better, what an improvisation!!!!!😮😮😮😮
Been a while since I’ve heard him go for the Double C on this piece! Nailed it
So relax...
Amazing
Undoubtedly that day the mouthpiece was raised. Incredible technique does not move anything
*Wowwwwwwww !!!* ♥
Allen Vizzutti is at the top of his game right now!!

Man …. Lemme know when they come to a coffee shop near my house!
This dude is A list start to finish
GOAT
Why wasn't the venue full/sold out?
That’s what I’m thinking! The amount of world class talent in that building is just crazy!
Браво!
Wow, the band is tight.
He’s in very good shape, wow 😮 !
Bro is the trumpet devil frfr😂
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Легко ему это всё, это Бог - природа!
What I’d give to be holding that camera right now
wow
Geile Sau! Hammer!
👍👏👏👏🎼🎵🎶🎺🏆😘
Wow!! Let me just add a double C at the end for some more flavor!!
замечательно , техника мелкая , филигранная
Wow!
4:13 to the end is the best
I would of dropped dead within two measures
Esse trompete é em dó?
Amazing as always, but please just get a tripod or find someone that can hold a camera ;)
Bro i’d be too intimidated to play
What band is this and where did they play ? Saw him, Doc and Maurice live and they were all breathtaking. Thanks for posting this.
It would be nice if Vizzutti would put a little effort into what he's doing every once in a while.
Это не человек!😮
It's those.razor thin lips. I'm telling you that's the secret to his tone. It's just like the reed on a saxophone and why sax players don't use thick ass reeds lol! It is physiologically IMPOSSIBLE for guys with larger lips to achieve this without working 10x harder.
yeah that can help a lot. Although it comes at a price: shitty kissing
If you didnt believe in God before watching this...what's your excuse now? Lol
noy many better at this craft we call trumpet
Didn't know that ed sheeran plays sax
Clifford Brown is a 1000x more musical.
He's a monster..... all of us trumpet players know this; Agreed, just accept it... he's a monster.
