brilliant! thank you for sharing this information.

This is great, Jon.

Zero effort? That depends on the state of lung volume and the air pressure required for the dynamic played.

That’s immortality! One can find Mahler‘s spirit and genius everywhere in the world. And the 10th is a psychological mirror how he suffered because of Alma‘s infidelity

My god, the filming of this run through gets better and better as the session goes on. The key players are always zoomed in on and the overall moving ball, Rolf, is generally featured throughout. Amazing footage.

Exciting opening piece!

Love your opening sequence

Thanks - very useful (ok, I'm too old to do this kind of thing but I appreciate listening to your thoughts). A lot of your advice applies to many professions in varying degrees, naturally. Off topic: I'm curious as to your thoughts on Harrelson trumpets (if any)?

I get a lot of value from these classes. I hope you continue showing them. Really nice mix of hearing you and the student play. Thanks!

Teacher points for not moving on until the student understood and could apply the concept ;-) Also, playing the bottom of a note makes so much more sense than aiming for the middle. Thanks!

Great communication, Jon. You really found something important in this fellow's sound and by the end of the lesson he was getting a much richer sound.

I never understood the " chest up" thing until you say: " I don't have to breathe, I'm already open" . BOOOM. It's the posture not the breating. Thank you so much for saying that!!!

Probably the best explanation about breathing! I wish all masterclasses can be useful like this one

Great lesson, thank you! Very talented student.

Would love to hear the experience of being an expat in Singapore!

This is how brass quintet is done, folks. RIP Rolf & Sam ❤️🎼🎶🎺

Please remake this video when you are sober.

He lives!!!!!

Truly a wonderful trumpet player, I wish you were a “household name” in the trumpet world back in the states cuz I love your skill and philosophies of playing trumpet

wownderful!😮❤

Utilizando a Mr. Paul Mayes para promocionarse? El contraste de opiniones me parece bien. El que le falte el respeto con una cerveza a todos me parece mal. No puede tener notoriedad por sí mismo y la busca a través de otros?. Veré algunos de sus videos señor. Gracias.

Great video! Thank you.

Just great ❤

So you prefer to play on the bottom of the "sound triangle", But you also say you agree with Pandolfi's idea of playing on the top half of the note? Would love to hear more on this.

You are 100% correct Jon, not everyone should have a platform! That should be true far beyond those bad trumpet videos. Unfortunately if you shout loud enough people will hear, then listen and unfortunately follow. Living that fact so poorly here in the states man. It's up to us to be smart enough to weed out the crap.

Great interview video (particularly of yourself). Inspiring. Cool dragpm lizard!

Hey Jon, Catching up on your live stream...been busy with work, but do enjoy your videos 👍 Would luv to see some video of your symphony brass quintet & hear some from your students.

Thanks for your live chats... I missed the live broadcast due to time zone differences... ugh!

5:45 LOL

Great video. Super helpful. Please do more of these types of videos. Thank you

Great stuff, and you communicate it perfectly. Thank you

It is a bit odd to review this particular video of Trumpet Prof. It's only a supplemental video. The first in the "Three Essential Tips" series is really helpful- kzbin.info/www/bejne/oJDdioGrmdejl7s

Thanks that was fun (and intimidating :))! Where do you get your music from (digitally) and what software do you use to display it?

Love the music stand!!!

For live chats, how about a couple of times that are different. During the week in the USA 9 am is difficult due to work. Maybe if you could alternate (your time) mornings and evenings. That way some people would get an evening possibility?

I want to hear the complete Planets 👍

Mahler died before completing this work, more specifically in the orchestration, for which he had only written drafts. References indicate that from the drafts of the first and third movements , it has been possible to produce performing versions that would be close to Mahler's intentions. For the remaining movements, many attempts have been made to decipher as much as possible from the scratchy manuscripts, with varying results. Significant amounts of compositional work have been needed to get a performing version of the symphony. What you hear is a constructed framework allowing performances to give audiences some idea of what Mahler's possible intentions.may have been. I'm not sufficiently familiar with the tenth to recognize which version is being performed here, The "completed' work has the 5 movements Mahler had planned; 1. Andante-Adagio, 2. Scherzo, 3. Purgatorio, 4 Scherzo, 5 Finale. I haven't listened to this yet (that comes next), but from the 84 minutes of this performance. I am guessing it's one of the completed versions. [I've posted this for anyone interested in finding some info on this symphony.I'm no great expert, just a Mahler enthusiast.] Later - I'm really enjoying the performance. After preparing what I wrote above, I'm now sitting back letting the music wash over me - excellent. Would love to know just who the performers are. In the sparse material provided, there's mention of "2 Songs" - I shudder. There are no songs - "songs" are music that's "sung". The sins of Spotify etc.

Sounding great Dante!

Great spot. You look terrific. I will say that I've had trouble in the past getting my embouchure tucked properly into a motorbike's tailpipe but if it's yamaha maybe I should give it another go. :)

One of the best ads I've seen. Must have been fun to make.

Yeah Sunday morning at 9am EST would be great! You could start the show with your take on the Abblasen Fanfare so we don't miss the one on CBS Sunday Morning. 😃🙃

I missed too!!!

Oops...missed ya!

Grab yourself a cold beer or wine! Lmao.... that's definitely the 5 o'clock somewhere rule!

Damn It, I missed out on this one. I'll have to check in more often. I hope the live session went well Jon!

Bring it on, brother...we're ready!!!! You've got so much to share. Orchestral, solo, teaching, and of course "chamber music" which I know will always have a special place in your heart 👍

We did not know that you switched to your new channel. Always enjoyed your adventures and would like to see more. Don't let any negative comments get you down. I hide from Ann's channel as the comments are always that I am old, ugly and no personality.....but I smile as I got the beautiful lady, they should be jealous.

Hi Jon. Keep doing whatever you can for us. Lots of "internet" brass teachers out there. But as a Principal Chair, you are the real deal and have already provided us with some good, practical suggestions. I had a few lessons back in the fifties, think I was about 11. Then didn't touch the horn much for nearly six decades. Well, maybe a dozen times to attempt to squeak out some Christmas Carols. "Squeak" being the operative word! A few years ago I got serious and started practicing again. Slow going, probably intermediate level now, but starting to sound better. Still got lots of little issues to solve. But the most disturbing one is suddenly playing with what I call a "double buzz." Even after several pretty good days, my articulation disintegrates and parts of some notes sound very rough; not smooth or clear. Hard to describe. Just happened again today, and happened fairly early in my practice, so I can't blame fatigue. If you can find time to suggest a cure I'd be grateful. Will always continue to follow your channel.

Once while working a 3rd shift factory job, I was driving home at about 7:30 am...thirsty, I pulled into the parking lot of a local liquor store thinking that I would get some cold beer. When I took a moment and noticed the lot was empty, I bust out laughing, realizing that liquor stores aren't open at 7:30am. Tuesday morning in the Chicago suburbs is a great time for a trumpet hang. But since I'm no longer working 3rd shift I'll probably be drinking tea, not beer...not that there's anything wrong with that.
