Anyone who plays trumpet knows how really inhumanly perfect Allen Vizzutti is. In my fondest dreams I could never hope to pull off this kind of amazing musicality and I have been playing for over 30 years. What you are witnessing here is the exercise of a God given gift.
As a trumpet player myself I can attest he is amazing. But then i see like Sergei nakrariakov or arturo Sandoval or Rafael madez or so many others who are amazing as well and I think to myself maybe I could get there eventually lol I'm only 13 years into practice so.....
In my opinion, this is Allen's best performance of this piece that I have seen on the internet EVER. There used to be a better quality version out there but I cannot seem to locate it.
@@Kamoojaan The idea of high notes being the end all be all of trumpet is seen more, from my experience, in grade school, and early college. After that, the players that have noticeable success in their careers are the ones who actually developed their technique. After that, range is just the more expensive icing you put on the cake when you want to be fancy. That's clearly demonstrated with this arrangement.
@@minormusicians595The difference also being that Vizzutti's is insanely pure. There's a video of him doing it online with one hand and no strain at all. The Double E in DCI sounds like shit
No...Its a piccolo trumpet. Notice the 4 valves and how high it plays? But personally for me the biggest clue that its a piccolo trumpet is the fact that it looks exactly like a piccolo trumpet. 3:11
