Arturo Sandoval plays his new Jazzophone 

now they need to make a saxophone that looks like a trumpet

He is truly grateful and you can tell he is having a great time playing with something that is totally different to his ear, which has given him a new perspective. Cool video!

This guy can blow on a plastic wrapper and make sweet music. geez Louise 👍👌

Jesus christ this microphone peaks so hard

Not to be confused with the saxoboom

0:53 he hugged Arturo with his neck lol

Makes Dizzies' horn look far too normal....

Putting the bent trumpet aside.. Sometimes I wonder why RU-vid only recommends me stuff after a lot of years have passed since they were posted

Love all that third valve play.

I love seeing someone so genuinely grateful for a gift

I love how quickly he mastered this instrument!

The tonal range is just awesome

I LOVE the sound,you biow us away Arturo !!!!!

Turo got himself a new toy. SWEEEEEEEEEEET !!!

Master musician, I love his feeling.

I feel like, because it happened with the saxophone that this instrument if it is gonna continue, that it won't be popularized until later on in the world after this guy has died or something...but then again because of how diverse we are today it might as well be

Merci d'avoir partagé ce moment extraordinaire! From France!

It should be called a trumpophone

Arturo with a new toy !

Sounds like he’s drifting an 18 wheeler. Love Arturo

It sounds almost like it has a mute on.

I can tell that is a bent up trumpet and modified to sound like that. Really cool tho.

Wow he absolutely starts shredding on it

That’s a cool instrument! It’s like a trumpet and saxophone at the same time.

This may be the coolest thing ive ever seen in my life. I wish I had one. Wow 😳😳😳😳

So I was on Google shopping looking for a cheep sax when I came across this..."instrument", so I decided to look it up on RU-vid and here I am.

It looks like it would be more relaxed to play. More comfortable, maybe.

The sound is crisp. Great sound and great trumpet player.

So amazing Arturo!!!

When I played with Eddie Harris, he used to play a so called „reed trumpet“. He was quite proud of his invention...;-))

i love You Arturo!! Show man.

I wonder if trumpet players might use this in marching band or Drum Corp to avoid horizontal playing.

Mack the knife!

just when you thought you saw everything,this is so cool

This is a hilarious looking instrument

He came to Texas a few years back. At one point, he pulled out his cellphone and it played the same song he was playing.

Yeow! Best experience ever

Arturo can make a piece of pvc pipe sound good lol

I hate to be that guy but I’m fairly certain this is a normaphone, not a jazzophone. A jazzophone has two bells, one of which has a built in wah-mute, similar to an echo cornet. They’re such rare instruments that the distinction barely matters but I do think it’s interesting.

Saxy!

Dizzy would approve. Truly an "upside down and backwards Dizzy horn."

The tone color is very nice. Also flugelhorn-like.

Do that to a euphonium! Bari sax style!

Que satisfacción , de tener en la Antoogia cubana a esta excelencia . Sueño con que en mi pais puedan estudiar a estas grandes figuras.

Genio da musica

who made this jazzophone should get a noble prize

For a second I thought it had a reed. That would be cool.

Looks cool but on the other hand I'd think the way both the Position and Angle the bell is located could in the long run damage the ear. The sound is more "direct" to the ear than normal trumpets design, hope I'm wrong (I am a musician with Tinnitus still play trumpet but not so often)

This is absolutely beautiful, but doesn’t the Jazzophone have a double bell? One side muted?

One man's poor slotting, is another man's pitch bending ability! :)

maestro de maestros!!!

Un hombre genial !!

Very creative design...

flight of the bumblebee on this instument will be god level.

cuando un EXPERTO toca, solo resta escuchar, reir y aplaudir...ejejejej

Arturo can play anything that you buzz your lips on.

where can I buy this I know a guy I wanna give this as a birthday gift to

Vvery, very good 👏🎶🎺🇧🇷

Still a trumpet in a different form. Just like a sax in curve or in straight, still a sax

Fantastico

gee... ive never heard him play even remotely this good before... great playing.

I want a jazzophone 😍

Arturo is one best in. The, word

Legal. Eu até ia me inscrever nesse canal, mas ele só tem um vídeo desde há três anos.

Cool Man, Cool.

I want one 😓

Has a sound in between trumpet and trombone. I dig.

Gotta get me one of those

How can we contact you ? And where can i find a jazzophone ?

This is a great instrument, but "jazzophone" was a slang term given to Stroh violins in the early 1900's.

Lindo instrumento me preguntó que modeló o marca es ese instrumento

I see Joan Chamorro in the background

Bravo

Billy May would have loved this one I think. haha

é um trumpet bem exotico.

I want one too.

Sounds like Al Hirt's technique

honestly it just sounds like a bent trumpet.. oh wait

🔥.

I WANT ONE

Vida zerada. Elogiado por Arturo s.

What did they play in the middle of the video?

Hey Mr James Morrison ?

Y donde consigo una de esos

ええわ。めっちゃいい。 iPhoneからでもわかる音圧よき👍

They have. It is called a clarinet.

Definitely Dr. Seuss inspired. 😂

I wish i kno how to play a trompet i got one 1940's that need a tunup

Send it to chuck mangione. He will decide whether he feels so good or not.

GENIO GENIO GENIO !!!!!!!

I thought they were going to put a reed on it

I want one

Cool idea! But ... isn't it just a normal trumpet with a bend on both sides?

This sounds like a bass boost meme without the bass

Dizzy lives!

Es una saxopeta. Arturo hace sonar un tubo.

Now add a slide

What about the 3rd valve slide?

Express. Is that a trumposax?

can i buy one???
