I play trumpet want to make a disclaimer that I have played the Trumpet for 20 years and these guys are freaks (especially Eric and Wayne, that sound!) but that Tenor sax solo blew me away!
A sax player myself, always wondered how hard it is to reach this highest notes in this piece on the trumpet. I remember there was a rumour, at least in my part of the world, that Maynard Ferguson had passed away in the 80ies cos of pressure in the brain from playing the high notes. Was lucky to see him later, in Bangkok, touring with US university students.
I've got tears in my eyes right now......I remember Maynard at DCI making a comment on my range.....still to this day my proudest moment. Thanks guys for bringing back some incredible memories.
Wayne kills them all! His solid, steady, open sound, his safety to hit the tone right in the center, his coolness, phrasing and last but not least his enormous musicality are outstanding!
first of all, eric miyashiro is way more humble and his tone is way better than hessions, even if hession can scream some semi audible notes that dont sound good at all.
@Ben Bailey I am not sure why you are referring to Hession as an egotistical douche. When he bowed and shakes hands, he was merely getting into the moment and enjoying the recognition the crowd gave him. You can not blame him, magic was happening on the stage and different people react different ways to recognition. Miyashiro not bowing doesn't inherently make him more humble, it just means he reacts to admiration and praise differently than Hession.
Funny, as good as these cats are, Maynard was in a totally different league! The sound, the power in his playing not to mention longevity was truly amazing! There are tons of guys who can play rocky at hit the "notes", but Maynard didn't make it sound high. He owned the upper register and played masterfully with noone his equal! Man I miss the "Boss".
I played trumpet for twenty years. My friends threw a big party to celebrate when I finally gave up the instrument and became a writer. Writing is much quieter they told me. I listen to this every morning at least once to get my emotional juices going in high gear. The philosopher Frederick Nietzsche said that life without music would be a mistake. I totally agree.
Everytime I hear this video with wayne and eric miyashiro I want to pick up my trumpet. They are probably the most amazing trumpet players I have ever hear.
the more I watch this video, the more I enjoy it. Eric, holding his hand in the air mimicing Maynard, and Patrick pushing the trumpet away after sustaining a high note like Maynard did... Wayne was amazing. God Bless Maynard Ferguson!
I don't know why a lot of people like to dump on Patrick hession. He is a professional lead trumpet player he played lead for Ferguson 6 years. You don't suck if you play leave for Maynard for 6 years. Now when he's in the upper register this sound is a little raspy that a little something weird to it he's not as full and fat as Eric is but trust me guys the cat can play and if you had a band you'd want him in it.
1:01 Oh my gosh. Playing with such good tone in that range is what always has been unimaginable to me. That was an amazing solo, sir. 2:35 is just as good, too. I'm baffled! Had another listen: That tenor sax solo is another well done one. So pleasing to listen to!
Vi esse vídeo quando eu tinha uns 12 anos (quando eu ainda tocava trompete) agora resolvi voltar aqui novamente depois de 10 anos para “curtir” essa obra prima🔥
LOL notice how Wayne is the only soloist out of the three (Hession, Wayne, Miyashiro) who isn't playing into a microphone, yet he still projects better than anyone on stage! Wayne's the best lead player alive IMHO.
yo naci en 1976, este tema es parte de mi, comencé con el, veo la película, escucho el tema y me emociona hasta las celulas... amo este singular capitulo de mi vida.
Today, I was about to fall down... but this song... after many years since I heard it for the very first time... still comes and saves me. Thanks guys. U are like family to me.
This is a great tibute to the "Boss" I must have seen Maynard over 50 times from 1974 right up until he passed away. Maynard and Blood Sweat and Tears were my two favorite bands in high school. My brother and I got to meet him after a show in Providence, R.I. one night. He was a great, down to earth human being . His trumpet playing goes without saying. You always looked forward to a M.F. Concert. The great musicians, the great arrangements, and the medley. R.I.P. Maynard. You are not forgotten.
One of the best film music composers I have ever had the pleasure of listening to: Bill Conti. He was the Rocky of film score writers, he always had The Right Stuff.
Rhenzie Gandia of CAVITE Cavaliers Philippines love your music..He is a musician too.. He died almost one week ago. We all remembered his music into our heart.. May you rest in Kingdom of God BLUE RHENZIE GANDIA 😭😔😭😭
As someone there that night, I must say it was one of the best music nights of my life. And for all the people here that want to complain about any of the players showboating, please don't forget that they were trained by the BEST showboater of them all. And I say that with great respect.
I was there for this and it was AMAZING!!! Even if there was something dubbed in the video, it was still amazing in person! These guys are really good!
1900maniac I know this is a late reply, but when a trumpet is that high in the register, the valves, (in matters of changing the notes) are practically useless, Examples are how he moved around the valves while holding a single note. and how some people can play a whole chromatic scale without touching a single valve (while playing that high)
I love watching this video. The three "leads" are playing in a similar fashion to Maynard, and in Maynard's later years, he played in a manner similar to what Patrick was doing. I am amazed by all three guys, what a pleasure it must have been to be there.
Wow, what a wonderful collection of musical artists making absolutely beautiful music. Love it and thanks to my good buddy 'Fast' Eddie for sending me the address to watch this magnificient video.
whoa!!!!!!! this is the shit!!! I wish I still had that register. I'm working on getting it back though. I swear it seems harder to do now that I'm old
Really cool. The energy of the players and the crowd is awesome, and I dig the sax solo. It is amazing that the stage doesn't collapse under that many trumpet player egos though lol
I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN SOOO AMAZED AT HOW WAYNE CAN JUST PLAY A DOUBLE A LIKE THAT! LIKE ITS NOTHING! REGARDLESS OF HOW HARD THAT NOTE IS TO PLAY FOR MOST LEAD PLAYERS!
Only the real music lovers appreciate this! When i play this video somebody says i am weird and a bit korny. But they never knew how the real master plays
these 3 were phenomenal. they might hate the other one for always hitting the high notes but that was maynard’s jam. but damn eric and wayne with those progressions whooooooo!!! missed you maynard!!
Good grief he makes that look effortless (4:25)... what stellar talent (by all of them, not just EM). I had the fortune of being there in person for this one.
Enjoyed going through some of these comments. It's fine to lament and be sad about Maynard, but rather than just listening, GO PLAY! There are many Maynard Ferguson charts that are doable by advanced and pro's that don't have the best chops: MY FUNNY VALENTINE is one. BIRDLAND is another. DANNY BOY and PEOPLE can be modified to still sound decent, but without the Double G's and higher... GO PLAY!!!
Holy S#*, One hell of a tribute to the Boss. What a powerhouse band. The trumpet players passed out after this performance from exhaustion. R.I.P. Boss. We all miss you. Mike G. Drums and Percussion. R.I.
Nobody gonna talk about that fire sax solo?
Indeed but what about the bass part of it, so catchy yet underrated
Exactly bruh

I'm a sax player, but can we take a minute to appreciate what the drummer was doing on the high hat? And everywhere else?

Did anyone else think that Miyashiro's solos were waaaay more impressive than Hession's, but Hession seemed to think he was the best? xD

looks like they're going bowling
Exactly what I thought! Haha

when I was in second jazz band early in high school our uniforms were bowling shirts similar to what those guys are wearing actually!
That must be a damn good bowling team 😂

Did anyone notice that altissimo jump from the tenor that just blended in so well at 2:04 that you couldn't even tell
Its so powerful

Maynard always had a rich full tone in the upper register.
