This is one of the greatest musician insider meme I've ever seen 🤣
LMAO
first time i've seen someone dual wield instruments

You have to invest enough points in having massive balls to unlock that talent option.
The faces of the musicians behind him are priceless
0:26 center is probably the best one
They all look so bored
They kinda looked like haters until he started wailing high notes on the trumpet 😂
wtf u talking about cluesless peons, they litterally dont care
I think every musician in these videos are kinda dead inside, especially the background ones
Until now, I'd thought a trombone and it's slide were as equally necessary for playing music as a hammer and chisel were for sculpting, so to me it just looks like this guy threw his chisel away and started hammering marble into a work of art.
His trombone has an f-attachment, which is usually used to partially close the gap that exists in the low range of the instrument and to eliminate the need for the two farthest slide positions. However, in the high range, it can almost entirely eliminate the need for the slide in general, as long as you’re ok with being a bit out of tune.
I didn't understand either, how is that even possible?
Almost all the notes he was playing can be done in the 1st position once he goes above the first F above the staff, although you do have to very good with adjusting your embouchure to flatten/sharpen the note so you hit the proper note and like the other guy said, he has an f attachment so that means he is effectively using 2 slide positions(generally the 6th position is the other assuming it is tuned to the standard position although for what he did here I bet he had it tuned in a way that made this easier, likely a bit flat) making him able to properly hit a lot more notes with alternate positions and a very good embouchure. Also some of those note he is just playing them close enough and fast enough that it sounds like he hit them. But then again maybe he is that good, but don’t recall seeing this guy play anything else on trombone.
Yeah…….I just play trumpet
if your high enough it doesnt really matter where you stick your slide. C and Bb are in position 1 at the currect interval.
The musical equivalent of talking to yourself
Alternative title: “When you’re the only one in the group project who does the work”
The fact that he was able to match the octave on his trombone is just insane! Who else strives to be like the GOAT James Morrison? • ‿ •
I once saw Jim and Bill Watrous playing a stage together. the battle was furious and glorious and etched in to my brain forever.
it's not the same octave its in bass clef
@@lollololololololololol8116 but the sound was the same octave. He still managed to play just as high with his trombone
Highest I can go on tenor trombone is a D on the fourth line of the treble clef staff. Never really had to play that high though. Comfortable range goes to the Bb slightly below it, after that point it starts to get a bit ridiculous lmao. I can try though :)
I loved that look he gave, like "Nah.....well...actually....."
i had no idea you could solo that hard on trombone without even touching the slide, wow
Having played a lot of trombone in my life I can assure you that you can't. This man's technique is so good you almost don't realize how incredibly hard that is to pull off even without switching between trumpet and trombone. Sure an F trigger gives you a lot of flexibility, but his control is next level. One does not simply play false and partial notes so cleanly that they sound exactly like a regular note.
@@s01itarygaming Yeah, it's astounding how clean those are, and at SPEED too. The trumpet version is hard enough (with access to valves), but the trombone version is unlike anything I've ever seen.
@@s01itarygaming not just the F trigger, the partials in the upper register are so close that with the trigger you can play almost get to any note you want on the top ranges.
That man has a very happy wife I'd say.
@@yq0706 regardless of which techniques he is in fact using, it takes quite a bit of control and practice to get that consistently clean.
0:52 that note sounds clean af
Why not 0:36 or 0:40?
@@xavierharris9749 lol they never said those weren’t
squeaky clean
wish i could do that lol
As someone who used to play trumpet, let me just say being able to do that is more impressive than running a marathon, and this man must have titanium jaws
the slide is just for decoration, folks.
I love how everyone on stage look at him as if he WERE the kid that's good at everything
this is insane, switching from a trombone mouthpiece to a trumpet mouthpiece is awkward as hell
Playing those lines so accurately in just first position is insane. James Morrison is incredible.
when only one brass player turns up for practice
I was halfway expecting both instruments playing identical runs at the same time. That would've made my head explode.
Hot dang, those partials.
He probably could to be fair
0:56 *gives up on playing trumpet line and 2 seconds later plays something just as impressive on the trombone without the slide*
And they said multitasking wasn't possible
Well he played them separately
@@CornOnThe_Cob fair, but my comment was in jest
Fair enough
No one said that
James Morrison is by FAR my fav current jazz artist. Man is insane
I think it was the 2019 International Jazz Day opener in Melbourne where I first heard William Barton play jazz on his didgeridoo (with James) and the two of them together were just amazing
Wycliffe Gordon is my favorite trombonist
0:55 Damn, on a second I believed that he would do it 😂
0:25 find someone who looks at you the way the guy on the right looks at him
That moment you realize the slide is not moving. 😮
Watching this made me feel lightheaded and out of breath. Extremely impressive effort put into that. I'd love to know how he managed to keep air in his lungs.
How is he playing all those notes in 1st position? Huh?
since it's so high in the range, all the harmonics are super close together, and he's also using the trigger a LOT which gives even more notes to play with (see 0:24). also you can lip tune to bend the pitch a fair amount too, tho id be impressed if he was doing that so quickly.
Very close partials and trigger
Trigger is a beautiful thing
I did not know that trombones had a trigger. Thanks!
@@JoshuaHeckathorn Real ones don't!
bruh he isnt even moving the slide
Can't beleive I got to perform on stage with James when Iw as in year 9, an amazing man, incredibly humble as well
Sounds like the man is as impressive as the music. A great ambassador for Australia and for jazz and no doubt a treasured experience for you!
Apparently, he isn't as humble as you are...still talking about something you did long ago as a kid 🤣
@@joeschmoe6516 Have you always been an idiot?
@@joeschmoe6516 shut up bro😂
Are you from Ballarat? If not I guess he played with schools a lot which is cool. Memorable experience for me too.
Brass techniques teacher: The final isn't going to be that hard.
The final:
The trombone is all mouth-work. I dont even understand how its possible.
(I've copy pasted my own reply to another comment)
He's on a really high partial in the harmonic series so the notes are pretty close to each other. Plus, the trombone has a F trigger (look at his left thumb), so that gives you a whole new set of partials. You can play a surprising amount of notes with that. I don't think I need to explain how hard this is to do.
@@amj.composer Never heard of an 'F-trigger' but it makes a lot of sense. So maybe he's just REALLY good, and not some kind of wizard like I suspected originally.
@@zack4president F trigger is just a valve that adds tubing to the trombone, dropping its pitch by a perfect 4th (so it's in the key of F). Also James Morrison is basically a wizard, honestly.
@@amj.composer I get it
That is the main character of our universe.
You know it's good when the band is in awe
Especially that band!
He deserved some applause at the end of that amazing set!
This is the 4th video I’ve seen of this guy playing this exact song and every time he’s doing something completely different. What
The skill here is actually insane! Love this guy!
Trombone Champ without Mouse 🖱
I am both a Trumpet and Trombone player but I don't think I could do this.
Wow, this is just amazing! And on his favorite blues song too 😂😂
I remember learning about the Baroque era clarion and how the players would perform the Bach concerti without valves. Someone discovered a tiny hole in an antique instrument that the players used to create the articulation of those Bach lines.
Again, the other people in the background are hilarious 😄
James Morrison is a literal gem to the jazz and brass world
Trumpet players drooling over the high notes😂
I do wish you gave credit somewhere to the performer.
performer is always in the description or top comments
When the trombone soloist throws up right before the performance.
@1:01 How the heck do you do that on a trombone without moving the slide?
Bruh that is eye watering how high that is I think on a good day I can be maybe 4 notes away for that
can you transcribe the havana solo from oli parker?
Did homeboy just do the classical version of dueling banjos by himself?
Much respect.
Man was dual wielding instruments and still had hands to signal the conductor there were 4 bars left
00:51 motif from goated olympiad fanfare
When you do the group project yourself:
how the hell do you play that with the trigger only...
such a shame to have that amazing solo, truly world-class, immediately followed by a lame and obviously classical orchestra
Very true, I noticed that too. Orchestras like this invite James Morrison as guest player because he always brings a spectacular performance, but their musical styles are too different. Swing versus no swing at all. It doesn't fit, he should better be playing with a jazz big band (and fortunately he also is doing that).
Help a stupid string player out. How the hell is he playing that bone that CLEANLY without moving the slide? I feel like everything I know is a lie.
In the upper register the harmonics get closer to each other. He's also playing a trombone with a valve (4th). This essentially allows him to switch between two overtone series (on Bb and F) if necessary. He also occasionally bends the note a bit which is done with the embouchure.
@@NotBroihon That's super impressive. Thanks for the info.
Lowkey I was him but as time went on I am now just a story🥲
James morrison used to live in the the house next door. A couple of years ago,we were at the beach in a cafe at sunset, and he rocked up with his band, driving his vintage rolls. Played free just for fun for an hour… very memorable…
still crazy to think I got the chance to play with this guy in highschool, and his brother too. Cool guys
James Morrison proving that the slide on a trombone is purely to give the players something to do with their hands and is otherwise completely superfluous
@@mattgiantmusic Woosh
@@mattgiantmusic You're either a non-native English speaker or you're just really new to the internet
@@amj.composer 😂😂😂
@@mattgiantmusic His comment was a joke and "woosh" is something you say when someone, in this case you, completely misses it.
@@mattgiantmusic Guess the Dutch have as little humor as the German. Yikes.
You definitely should check out when James Morrison (the guy in this video) played a Mozart piece for flugelhorn on his "frugal horn" which was literally a mouthpiece, a plastic funnel and a length of garden hose. The guy's a freak!
THE FACT THAT HES NOT EVEN MOVING THE TROMBONE'S SLIDE BEDAZZLES ME
The slide on a trombone has just been for looks all along 🤔
You can only play like this if you go super high and are super skilled, so… kind of
"switching to your sidearm is faster than reloading"
As a band kid you’ve no idea how funny I find this

so i was writing a "scary " trombone piece
octave E's, 16th notes and 250 bpm COMBINED
I’ve been watching your videos for an hour and this is the first one where I genuinely said “HOW IN THE FK does he play trombone like that” 🤯
this is even wilder when you realise he goes back and forth between transposing and not
October 15 of 2041.
0:39 he just did the trio by controlling his lips and air? can any trombone players tell me how he did it?
Brass player here! Yes this is called a lip trill. Air essentially is the same but you change your lip formation (or formally called embouchure) very rapidly to alternate between the two notes without moving the slide or valves
@@Hodor1355 thanks! very impressive! i cant imagine lips moving that rapidly
He rapidly changes his embouchure for the octave trill. It’s very hard, I’ve played brass since 4th grade and I can only do it consistently for about 10 seconds lol.
I’m in my second year of college 😅😂
This what non music majors think music majors do all day
i thought???? the trombone needed to be slid??? the fuck?? this is like watching a guitar player who’s not strumming
Could you transcribe a video for me its called in a sentimental mood it was posted by Bobby riley around 7 years ago and its of a previous high schooler named trae riley it is an amazing solo and I would love to see it transcribed
we have this one kid in concert that plays bass clarinet and bassoon and since we sit right beside each other he just switches from bassoon to bass clarinet on some pieces (Im still first chair thankfully)
He wasn't using the slidey-thing🤔....how was he playing without using the slidey-thing?🤯
Love a good bit of comedy in my music acts.
It's like the anti Bill Bailey, a comic who puts music in his acts.
"The person playing the trombone is sick"
Him: I'll just do it myself
In Yorkshire we don’t like paying for more than we need.
Black Dyke band of Bradford
And this isn't even the performance where he also plays the piano. (Not at the same time as the trumpet and trombone, but still.)
everyone behind him looks absolutely livid
One thought going through the collective mind, “I need to practise more…” 😢
0:53 yoooo is that a james morrison refrence??
It is stolen!!! I hope James sees this and sues this fraud of a player for copyright infringement!
It's the same song where he played the three tone on the trombone...
James is AMAZING
”So did i get that right, how many instruments you play?“
”All.“

Bro playing Octaves higher than my highest note and making it look like he’s playing a simple F
This is going to sound impossible, but can anybody identify the ride that the drummer used?
You should see him charming snakes
This reminds me of when Captain America wielded Mjolnor and his own Shield.
If you can't play this in Trombone Champ are you even a real trombone player?
Alright, now weed a trumpet player and a trombone player
I’ll do both
As a former trombone player I don’t even know how this is possible... Idk how I ended up on this part of YT but I am loving it 👍
When you’ve already mastered your main instrument so you decide to master other instruments out of sheer boredom.
Get paid for two instruments playing the same thing = profit.
As a trombone player, I cringe at the thought of playing notes that high.
0:49
That line!!! 😮😮😮😩
1:11 this one as well!
If it wasn't for that trigger, he wouldn't be able to paly that with one hand
Why on earth did you put an apostrophe after the quaver note when it said straight quavers
He could play Dueling Brasses by himself!
Where can I find more of these videos but full length?
POV: the trombone player called in sick
Dude said « nah I can’t be as good as myself »
Ah yes, the trombone bugle. a classic, of course.
