Thank you for all your comments! Glad you dig it, full version of my new cover of No Diggity coming out on the 28th if you’re interested - Spotify pre-save link here distrokid.com/hyperfollow/oliparker/no-diggity
For anyone looking to try this themselves, this video starts around 3 minutes into the instrumental version of Smooth Criminal (about 2 bars before the synths come back in) with the flugelhorn playing at 3:05 (coming in with the synths). To practice, I'd start the instrumental around 2:45 where the guitar comes in (and plays for 8 bars) so you can feel the beat and learn where to come in. Instrumental can be found here- ruclips.net/video/UNFwkeBopCM/видео.html
Give yourself, and which ever brass teacher taught you the essentials a massive pat on the back. You obviously learned the right things in the right order, which gave you the foundations to choose whatever style you wanted to perfect. I skipped music theory as a trombonist. HUGE mistake, which I now know and regret because my practical abilities is greatly limited when it comes to improv, switching between clefs, and scoring that makes any sense. Love your vids.
I love the 'wrong note' section thrown in there... Really shows that clever use of musical theory and, most importantly, intent/awareness are also extremely important/overlooked in playing an instrument. :)
Any way you can post a link to the sheet music of the transcription? I would love try and learn this!! You are such a creative soloist and killer player!
Even from a technical and logical perspective, you are extremely skilled. Easily one of thebest regarding your techniques and the sheer amount of flexibility you have, being able to switch betwee so many ways of playing and so on. Keep it up!
Keep rock'n out the new wave coming your way soon! Enhanced sound quality is the beauty gesture of the vessel! -Keep dipping the tips in the pure form of Creativity your bright believe that
You have restored my love in band and shit. This is amazing- I wish I picked a horn instead of being told to play the clarinet horns are so fucking cool ToT
Bravo! Smooth, Clean and Superb Technique! My only complaint is the solo wasn't long enough! We about five minutes of your Flugelhorn Vibes! Great Job!'🎺🎶🎵👌👍

That lick at bar 12 🤤
Amazing! Never ceases to amaze me, reminds me a lot of Chuck Mangione with his earlier recordings, great stuff!
Well if you're gonna show off 😂
clean ass trill indeed!
Ha! “There are no wrong notes”. Love it! You got a little Thelonious Monk and that measure!
I feel like this is going BOOM in a few weeks, so I'm a testament of this.
Amazing flute!
Appreciate it, guess we’ll see what the RUclips gods decide 🚂
@Oli Parker is this a yamaha or a different Brand of flugelhorn
Sir I’m gonna need this full thing on Spotify ASAP! The best thing my ears have heard in a long time!
0:28 Love that lick. think I heard it in the slim shady solo too.
It's the viio7 chord
Beautiful improvisation and transcription. I believe you’ve motivated me to play trumpet again.
Me looking at my trumpet rn thinking the same thing
This just blew my mind! So well done, man!
0:32 my man really got away with the lick.
he didn't get away though, it stands out
but that just enhances it.
that is the cleanest and most crisp flugelhorn double tonguing i have ever heard omg
Best fugelhorn solo I've herd in a very long time
I haven't heard one this good in ages.

Ive watched this about 50 times. I love this so much and its very catchy. I showed my mom and she also loved it
I wanted to show my two year old daughter some horn players and stumbled on this guy... We 're not disappointed! ❤
Please drop this on Spotify my man I need this on my liked songs😫
Appreciate it! I’d love to make a full version, stick around and I’m sure I’ll make one eventually, it’s on the list! :)
@@oliparker Alright, looking forward to it, and just to add. Love from ECHS Marching band (Specifically the trumpet section).
I can’t stop listening to this
Excellent! Loved it!
Dammit man, you are absolutely amazing!!!!❤❤❤❤
You're amazing Oli, I play the trumpet aswel and I LOVE to see these!
BRO IS SO CLEAN!!!!!
It needs to have a solo, I'd listen to it every day for this part
such a smooth lick.
Your staccatos are amazing, they're so crisp and clean🔥🔥
This keeps popping up in my recommended and I keep rewatching it, it’s just that good
stunning.
I love the 'wrong note' section thrown in there... Really shows that clever use of musical theory and, most importantly, intent/awareness are also extremely important/overlooked in playing an instrument. :)
That ending that fades back into the song was super frickin clean
Cross between Herb Albert and Chuck Mangione!! Awesome!!!
Love this!!
Clean ass trill was clean as hell
I was pleasantly surprised by this. Really nice man! 😂 🎺
fantastic.
I’ve listened to this like 50 times and I still can’t get enough
Clean ass trill got me
Killing it! Love the tritone sub idea near the end. Awesome.
As smooth as that Criminal😍
I play violin and know nothing about this but it sounds so good
Any way you can post a link to the sheet music of the transcription? I would love try and learn this!! You are such a creative soloist and killer player!
Thanks! Check out the George Collier vid on his channel, there might be a link there as he did the transcription :)
no, you have to suffer and learn every note individually by ear
I could listen to Oli all day!! Such a beautiful, clean tone!!
Can you PLEASE make a video about how you learned to play trumpet and flygelhorn like this? I would DIE for some practice tips from you!!
Even from a technical and logical perspective, you are extremely skilled. Easily one of thebest regarding your techniques and the sheer amount of flexibility you have, being able to switch betwee so many ways of playing and so on. Keep it up!
I got ✨GOOSEBUMPS✨ hearing this. Your tone quality is amazing... how can you tongue that fast!?
Glissando straight from the depths
This is your best video ever!
Godamn I had to replay that gliss a couple times, that was clean af👀🥵

Oh yeah I can dig that, and I'm a tenor player. And measure 20 sounds like a Michael Brecker lick!
watching you fingers press the buttons extremely quick is so cool for some reason
Congrats you just got an ovation from my dog and cat (no joke). They came in just to watch and immediately left when you finished! I too liked this!

This is one of the smoothest solos I've ever heard! Fantastic!
AMAZING!!!
The glissando is from another world
You are so talented. You belong a stage with a national symphony and worldwide audience.
That is incredible!
