Maynard was a beast. If Louis was a beast he'd hold out that F# forever like Maynard did, not take shortcuts to avoid having to match Maynard's performance. Louis can pop out some high notes, he's not in the same universe as Maynard in his prime.
@@NotBroihon not close - MF in the 60's / 70's a monster - sat in on a few gigs ..... unbelievable. Louis top notch - smooth player - MF power personified.
@@doncorleone3829 You're right. My previous comment was kinda silly probably due to the fact that I was answering an even stupider comment. Yes, Maynard definitely was a beast, no doubts. Especially the younger Maynard.
Are you serious? Have you ever seen the score for this piece? All three back up trumpet parts of above the staff pretty much the entire time. Bb horns have tuning issues up in the altissimo/clarnio range, not much you can do about it other than try to bend the notes into tune, but the distance between the partials is so small it becomes a function of the length of the horn. In short, if you want this stuff completely in tune, they'd have to either use Pro-Tools. As for what Louie is doing, it's just short of amazing, there might be 100 trumpet player in the world that can play that chart with that kind of power. Bottom line, this is just the trumpet equivalent of bench pressing 500 lbs.
It's good but the intonation is an issue. I think part of it that it is always a bit better to be on the sharp side than the flat side of the pitch. And we are used to hearing that in most recording from great trumpet players. In my college band we consciously tuned just a tad sharp. It simply sounds better for the trumpet. Particularly the lead. If you are just the slightest bit flat... like 439 even... it is awful and our ears are just more used to the best players being 440+
Seeing that nobody actually answered the question, it is a bach, the full details are on his instagram I think. The mouthpiece, if I'm not mistaken, is a GR Wayne bergeron studio or something from the GR Wayne Bergeron line
To be fair, they make no difference in range. If changing mouthpieces gives you more notes, than you rely on pressure and speed up tactics. Just play what you have, and it will be able to do this.
The Louis Dowdeswell/Maynard Ferguson of singers: Cristina Ramos. She's an opera singer who sings rock also. Need to watch the first 2:40. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-DRQ_kERSwJs.html
Agee, this is not the best band. Tuning and power was not right. Sound eq also was missing a lot of lower mids. Sounded thin and harsh. Louis is amazing... Nails it hard every time.
Do you know the thing that really sucks. You are giving master classes or clinics on how to play the trumpet when you can’t decently play an Aruban study to save your life. Charlie. I’ll take the challenge with you mate.
He got no chops, really ....... I mean ..... just in the front cat....he steal the show and go home .... not true legend work ( as a lead on the trumpet section seats) plus.... very thin and boring sound.
