Sleigh Ride from the Bass Trombonist’s Perspective 

okay can we talk about the crazy good tone the tubas have.

I saw the pov of both trumpets. You guys sound amazing.

2:30 has always been my favorite part of this song. thank you trombonists for giving me that.

its crazy how good they sound for just a high school band. every high school band I've listened too (including my own) has always sucked

20% playing skill, 80%counting skill

the amount of AIR and BREATH CONTROL this takes. respect from a fellow trombone player cuz damn dude

i played this in my winter concert this year but my band sounds like trash💀 yall sound really good tho, especially you, tone soothes my ears

Super good and clean tone!! I like how you sound, nice work

Listened to the audio recording and rather say the tone of the whole band is amazing! Also your tone is really beautiful! Sounds like everyone in the band actually works hard unlike my band… great job once again!

I’m clarinet and it is so hard. You guys did amazing. It was perfect!

Ugh I'm addicted to these slay ride perspective videos Very well done :)

I also play trombone and I can’t wait to play this song next year because how clean it sounds you guys did so amazing

Those clarinets have amazing tone omg what

So interesting to hear this from the "trombones only" perspective. Very cool to see how the trombones really support the bottom end. By the way, You're a damn good trombonist! I seriously thought you were professional!

The background and lighting looks really similar to these 2 trumpets who recorded their perspective.

It made me so happy to see that I’m not the only one who pushes my glasses up at the middle. I feel like I always see people push them at the sides, or even at the edge of the lens.

I'm a Baritone Saxophone player going into 9th grade and I think you sound amazing! I hope we play stuff like this

I saw one of your comments on another video saying that you did one of these too. Fortunately this popped up on my recommended and good job! You’re amazing!

woah he looks like my bf 😧😧

Always good when I can hear a good young trombonist.

Well done! Also love the devil horns for the holiday concert 😂

Great entertainment. Having heard that song sooooo often, a fresh new look is ever so enjoyable! Instructive too!

Crying, the clarinets sound beautiful

Skip to 0:27 if you don’t want to wait! More info in channel bio! The link to our band's recording of Sleigh Ride on this concert is in the description! You can watch EVERYONE's perspective in this video!: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-eljchujoBXs.html

What fun. She is so good and her expressions are priceless. My husband plays the bass trombone, so I have an appreciation for all the work.

we’re playing this this year n our trombones could never 😭😭

we are learning a whole different version of sleigh ride

Very nice !!!! Good job, you are a fine musician !!

I played this about 3 years ago on tuba and it's fun to still recognize my part :)

I’ve been a bunch of these videos and you’re finally the first clean one ✊🏻

This was so wonderful. Thank you so much for posting it!

Great tone! Outstanding performance by your entire group!

I just stumbled onto your video. Your tone is spot on and you have that great brassy sound in all the right locations in the music. You are a GREAT trombonist! Keep it up! By the way, I play the same part in our local community band!

You sound so good let’s go! I’m hyped now, so many talented musicians out there it always blows my mind in the most amazing way while also being super humbling.

Super great tone from the whole band! Awesome!

LOVED IT!!! More, more! I loved watching you play this trombone on one of my favorite Christmas tunes. Loved hearing the bass line coming in and going out and how it contributed to the tune as a whole!

Nice to see this from another perspective. I've played the Euphonium part first when I like you was a HS student (67-72) and then recently last December in a local Concert Band. Cheers and thanks for sharing.

Came into my YT feed just in time for holidays 2022 🎄🎄 One of my fav holiday tunes and you all did marvelously well-thanks for putting a smile on my face! 🔔🔔

The swing section sounds so freaking amazing!!!

I loved this!! Great job!

i play tenor and ahh how i miss this. Band was great. Keep up the good work fellas.

Love this song and that instrument!!!

Wow your Gb tuning slide is like really far in compared to mine lol, i have to pull mine like an uncomfortable amount out for it to be in tune, but yea really nice tone!! Glad to see my bass trombone brethren have some content as well

Y'all literally sound amazing

Love this, good job

An excellent video, and an excellent player; thanks!

I listened at the link and this it is a rather above average performance for a high school.

Boy! Y’all knocked that one out of the park! It was so good!

This young lady plays beautifully- hope she’s still playing!

Nice tone I really love this!

I wish we had that capability when I was in high school. Enjoyed this.

Play girl!!!! :-) I played this song on Trombone with the trigger back in high school 40+ years ago. Loved it.

Your tone quality is amazing!!!! Also the way you did the dynamics put my band to shame. As someone who plays clarinet parts often it was cool to hear from another section

bass trombone seems like so much fun! good work :)

ur a wonderful trombone player. after i saw every trombone note i see u got them all correct. very impressive

I enjoyed that. I played trombone in the school band 45 years ago. Great job. Thanks for sharing.

used to be a trom player...you are so good man... excellent pitching. subbed..:) show more content for sure

Fabulous, keep it up. Great sound you have.

Ur articulations are on POINT

I always liked 1:45 when we played but the counter melody yall add omg it's gorgeous, it's small but it adds a lot (from a clarinetist from across the band, I appreciate you)

Great tone! And a shoutout to my fellow Tubas, they’re sounding real solid!

So fun! What a great player!

this is me still listening christmas songs at the last week of january lol. very clean play btw

I remember playing this way back in my high school years.... 9th grade on the sax, 10th grade on the bells, 11th and 12 th on the tuba.... Miss those old days... beautiful job, well done

you sound amazing!!!

The bass trombone part has always been my favorite part of this song! This was done incredibly well.

good job!! nice tone....hard to stay totally in tune on a tbone...you did a good job!!

You guys sounded amazing and I really like your headband!!

a trombonist and valo player. respect!

great to hear the contribution of instruments other than melody ones. Sounds real good, there!

Outstanding for a High School student. Flawless.

As a percussionist who has played all the percussion parts on this, it’s great to see another perspective.

Outstanding!!!!!!!!

Nicely done !!

Ok, sure, trombone is fun, but have you ever felt the ABSOLUTE EUPHORIA of playing slapstick in sleigh ride? It's just so satisfying to play that one singular note when EVERYONE ELSE cuts out and you're perfectly on beat. It's amazing.

Lot of talent and good work! Cool video!

Well done. You are a pro.

Leroy Anderson! My dad was a trombone player - worked for the "BBC Northern Ireland Light Orchestra". This is the kind of thing they used to perform every day - it was 'light music' like this. He used to tell me this was quite difficult to play - classics were a lot easier!

Gonna be playing this on bass trombone for our next Christmas concert so this helped

I feel like especially in December, I'm getting this song recommended in different bands with different parts. I heard saxophone, trombone, bass clarinet, trumpet, tuba, everything

Well done, brother!!

I love this !!! Made my day....I only know from the flute/piccolo perspective.

Sounds so good!!

Nice to see more than one one person playing the 3rd part

This is literally the 7th POV I'm seeing of this

I've played this many times in our community band but we are a small group so I've always played first chair and we never had a bass bone. This sounds so full with a full brass section.

Very amazing and clean tone. Im a bass trombonist myself but my highschool has 3 basses, so when I played sleigh ride I took all of it down an octave

This makes me kind of miss being in the school band. I never got along with anyone though - and I quit 8 years ago so it's too late now haha.

SO GOOD! Ive always wanted to have/play a really nice F attachment trombone but my high school was broke and only had one and the first chair used it and i dont own one

I wish we had these type of phones when I was in HS so much of this was missed out on! Love my bass trombone days!

Actually very enjoyable - thanks.

You orchestra plays very well and so do you

Great job. Loved your tone and the band as a whole sounds very nice. I played Trombone and Tuba (and occasionally baritone) through high school and college and loved every moment of it, but I’ve always wanted to play Bass Trombone. Got to demo it once and really liked it, but was too expensive for my parents. Go low brass!

Woodblock always goes so hard

They have amazing tone wow

Omg I play sleigh ride 1st cornet part in my band and this is so interesting thank you!

I make sure to watch this video at least once per day!

This is really cool!!

Excellent for a middle school band!

Very nice! Thank you!
