Yea, it's definitely really good.

Thanks! Everyone scrolling through the comments should take a moment to check out your channel :P

The Trumpet Man ❤️🎺

The Trumpet Man I play the trumpet and only doing grade 3 but I look up to you and you inspire me so much and one day I'd love to be like you and would love to meet you

Thanks a lot, Gabriel! I hope you can figure out the fingerings :)

@@thetrumpetman np, btw what mouthpiece do you use?

@@gabrielmoramarco661 Bach 3C Megatone

As are your comments :P Thanks!

Thank you very much!!!!!!! :D :D :D And you're welcome I guess xD

I love comments like this

That was one of the best comments I've seen in my life :) Thanks!

Thanks! I do remember giving you some advice on the high notes :) I'm really happy that it's helped you so much :D :D :D And wow, a high G now? Not bad!!!

The Trumpet Man thank you 😄

haha, thanks!! I'll tell you what. A million dreams weren't keeping me awake during the process of this video. What did keep me awake was knowing the range I had to use in those choruses xDDDDD

Thank you very much!!! I'm glad you loved it :D I'll keep on trying :)

maybe expialidocious? 😉

Thanks!!! It is a great musical :D

Thank you very much :) Best of luck with your playing!

Thank you very much! I had to have the tune pitched a step lower I think, to help out on the very top end of the range, but other than that I wanted to keep it as close to the original key as I could :)

Thank you very much!!

Thank you!!! Yea, lip slurs and things like that will help to improve range :) When it comes to learning by ear, trial and error always helps. Like playing along with the recording of the song. You might hit a lot of wrong notes, but eventually you'll find the notes you're supposed to be playing lol. For me, I've found that knowing your scales and keys helps as well. One of the first things I'm doing when I'm trying to learn a song by ear is figuring out what key it's in. Once I have that down, everything else usually comes easier. Training your ear helps a lot as well. Like, for example, play a C on your trumpet. Then in your head imagine what the F above it will sound like. And then play the F. So you're learning how each note of the scale sounds in relation to the other notes of the scale. I've found that I can listen to a random song and without touching my trumpet I know what notes of the scale are being played sometimes.. I might not necessarily know what key it's in, but I can be like "Oh, that's the 4th note of the scale, going to the 3rd note of the scale", etc.

Thanks :D I want to do pretty much every song from this movie lol We'll just have to see when I'm able to get around to all of them.

Thanks man! I appreciate it :)

Thank you very much :D 🎺

I love comments like that :) thank you very much :)

Thank you!

I love that you love it :)

Very nice :D

@@thetrumpetman thanks

I'm happy to hear that :)

Thank you very much :D I love that you love it :D

No problem! 😃

Thanks! I'm glad to hear that :)

Thank you! So are your comments :D

😊😊😊

Thank you! I'm not planning on doing a slower version at this time, but I appreciate the suggestion :)

Thanks a lot :D I appreciate the kind words :)

Thanks! Always appreciated :)

Thank you very much!

Thanks Dane! I hope all is going well with your composing endeavors!

You could always start it up again 😉

@@thetrumpetman I wouldn't even know where to begin

I am about to utter the dreaded words that no one wants to see: I learned it by ear. So I don't have sheet music for it lol Sorry :(

@@thetrumpetman *Surprised Pikachu Face*

noob notes.com search it up on that website my bad noobnotes.com

I dropped a like xD

lol

Thank you!!! I feel ya. I'm still trying to get better on those high notes, too. And I loveeee shares. Thanks so much :) I would love to give you a suggestion, but unfortunately I'm not a big trumpet model expert. I'm had a very limited selection of horns I've played over the years. I would try to find someone else who might know, or maybe see if there's some place in town that lets you try out different models. Sometimes one model works for someone and not for someone else. I'm sorry I can't be more helpful, but if I tried making a suggestion I would be trying to fake my knowledge of trumpet models lol

LOL! Thank you :D

I hope to at some point next year :)

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it :D

The Trumpet Man np, think you can do from now on?

I think I already did xD ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-eaIqEkaYfHI.html

Thanks so much Sofie! Pretty soon those squeaks are gonna be roars xD Just keep working on it! Oh, and random story time: one time I was watching a guy play trumpet, and you could hear he had a lot of spit built up in his trumpet. So when he had a few measures of rest, I saw him empty like a waterfall of spit onto the floor lol

@@thetrumpetman lol thank you! I have a song to play on my trumpet on Monday >_

@@sofiestormheart3997 Aw, don't be nervous :) You'll do great. What song are ya playing?

@@thetrumpetman Cotton-Eyed Joe

@@sofiestormheart3997 I don't think I"ve heard that one before. Good luck!

I learned it by ear, so I don't currently have music for it. Sorry :(

Oh snappppp xD I would comment on your comment, but no need to aggravate them further 😂

Thank you, Alice! You mean the fingers for notes above the C that is above the staff?

Yes, the one above the staff. Do you have fingerings you use for the higher notes?

I can't go a whole lot higher than that. I use 2nd valve for C#, open for D, 2nd for D#, open for E, and 1st for F.

Thank you! I'll definitely try them out :)

I editing the backing track so it was a whole step lower. So that made the melody a whole step lower. So I transposed in relation to the backing track, if that makes any sense.

Maybe. I would like to do them at some point. I just don't know when I'll be able to get around to doing them.

lol I mean, I technically could write any of the stuff down for the ones I learn by ear, but it would take such a long time xD As of right now, I sadly do not have sheet music for this one. Maybe at some point I could if I have time. Just don't count on it welp

The Trumpet Man haha all good, you’re a legend keep up the amazing work!

Thank you! I did learn this song by ear :)

I use a Bach 3C megatone mouthpiece. In this video I used a Getzen 700 Eterna II trumpet.

I learned it by ear, so I don't have sheet music for it. Sorry :(

I learned it by ear :)

@@thetrumpetman how!? 😂

Unfortunately, I learned both these songs by ear, so I don't have sheet music for them. Sorry :(

I learned this by ear, so I don't have the notes. Sorry :(

I learned the song by ear, so I don't currently have a list of the notes and chords at this time. Sorry :(

Thank you! I learned the music by ear.

It's played in the right key, as in the key I'm playing in and the key the karaoke track is in are the same. But it isn't the same key as the original song from the soundtrack. I lowered the karaoke track a whole tone so I would have a bit of an easier time playing the choruses up an octave.

You're too kind :) But thanks :D

where's that "close enough" meme when you need it lol

Thank you! I'm glad you commented :)

I learned it by ear, so I don't have the score. Sorry :(

Its okay dude, you are awesome😁
