I was very glad to discover Emmanuel never heard of him hes such a talented great drummer and then I saw him on clarinet like the great Benny Goodman boy can you play that clarinet great performance. I'll be looking for more videos thanks for posting
My college percussion professor had a saying: there are two paths to success in music, either play something simple and make it look difficult, or play something difficult and make it look easy. He was correct!
I'm a drummer myself and I feel like I could practice the rest of my life and still not be that good. Of course my wife disagrees with me but still..... Awesome just Totally Awesome , All 3 of them !!!!! Anyone reading this I have to say....... If you don't know Jesus Christ please seek Him for He is the only way to Heaven !!!
Yes. The net is full of dull drum solos (double bass and snare centrical ones). The essence - to me - is pulsing, playfulness, JOY. This man is PULSING. Rare joy for the audience. (The acrobatic stickparts are good too, but for me indifferent.) Greetings from a melodydrummer from Hungary.
@@Jerharris90 This video is great!! The drummer is excellent. However... if he chose to play matched grip with the same amount of skill and showmanship, would his grip make a difference?? I honestly don't think it would. While everything has its place, some things are subjective. It comes down to preference. What's more comfortable for the player.
He really captured the nostalgia of the swing era!!…It is evident that he was inspired by the great swing drummer Sonny Payne!!! Showmanship & performance at its finest!!!
Thank you for this. It made my day. What a player. This is real entertainment. The most fun thing I've ever seen from a drummer. All of it was just enthralling. Great cure for the sitting in a snow storm blues.
His style is so reminiscent of Gene Krupa (my personal idol) right down to the facial expressions. It looks like he's even using a vintage set of Slingerland Radio Kings.
Great drummer considering his instrument is really the clarinet. Great showman but of course he's Italian! How about his two brothers, bass and piano. Talented family. Watch more videos, brother on piano very much in the style of the great Teddy Wilson.
@@sotender48 That is so sad!!! Is was watching all the drumming tricks (and I am a drummer), I couldn't help but have my attention constantly shifted to the pianist. As you say, very similar to Teddy Wilson'ss style, and beautifully played.
