His flexibility and tounging is truly astounding as well as his control and endurance.Sheer virtuosity .

[@adamh951]

But his sound tho 🤩

[@kaiyan2956]

5:59 can't imagine how the sound of two trumpets could be made from one.

[@dingdingbella6521]

humming or polyphonics whatever that means

[@volcana1029]

hes not playing 2 notes, hes just playing really really fast

[@markmavashev4951]

This is double tonguing.

[@professorpp-bizon1946]

@@markmavashev4951 not really though it's slurred

[@phoonzhongven8035]

contrast in the stacato low and slur high notes

[@Nater21]

I can’t even fathom what it’s like to play something like this. Being a trumpet player myself, I can see this man dedicated his life and possibly sold his soul to sound this good.

[@EvanBeachy]

Nate M i believe this performance showcases the very struggle between professional musicians and perfection in music. he slaves for hours on fundamentals, he slaves on technique, he slaves on absolute perfection until the perfect sound is omitted. absolute perfection, all though impossible to reach fully, is the only thing that drives this struggle. its the only thing that keeps music itself real. and i believe this piece in particular really shows the ups and downs of every musicians professional career.

[@Nater21]

Evan Beachy That’s what I’m saying

[@kevinward1538]

He played this perfectly when he was twelve search it up

[@Nater21]

Kevin Ward he said he’d only been playing 3 years at the time too ....

[@markmurphy7870]

He did a recording of the carnival of venice at age 15 that is arguably better than this one.

[@leonardchan5141]

I love any and all Nakariakov interpretations, so unlike anything herd anywhere else! And holy moly, var. 4 went absolutely crazy! I wish I could get it half as fast and half as clean!

[@oldmanandthesea7039]

His trumpet tone is so lyrical and expressive, evoking the singing of a tenor. Absolutely beautiful!

[@rodmact6548]

His technique and musicality is beyond compare. No one else comes close. Bravo Nakariakov!

[@elija8606]

Wynton plays is much more beautifully in my opiniom

[@garyleming3820]

@@elija8606 Wynton is a supremely well rounded player, but for classical styles I much prefer Sergei Nakariakov. But I would say it is a matter of taste. As well as Wynton plays on everything, to me he is still primarily a jazz musician

[@mariomartinez4176]

Gary Leming not at the time he was playing music like this, you don’t get a Grammy for classical performance for nothing...

[@elija8606]

@@garyleming3820 He is a jazz musician, but he studied classical music too, so he can be considered a classical player. And yes, it is a matter of taste

[@nrcg2317]

Rafael Mendez surpasses Nakariakov's technique and musicality...period...end of story...Go Listen to Moto Perpetuo, Haydn Trumpet Concerto, Mendelssohn's Concerto, Scherzo in D Minor, La Virgen de la Macarena, just to name a few. Then go and ask Nakariakov and he will tell you that Rafael Mendez is his idol.

[@patricksalvadori7119]

Nakariakov plays the trumpet like an angel. His control and sheer brilliance are incomparable! Bravo Sergei for giving us so much pleasure and transporting us!

[@richardarnoldgarcia4524]

Perhaps one of the best musical interpretations of this well known piece. Sergei masters every aspect but unlike many other virtuosos who have also attempted this, Sergei exudes an unmatched melodical expression...almost of dance between the horn and the music. Such a pleasant performance instead of the usual brutal double tonguing attack most performers engage with. This would make Rafael Mendez proud!

[@mrbigg151]

I'm a clarinetist, and no matter how many times I hear this, it's always amazing. When you can play this piece, you know you've joined a short list of greats.

[@kadegainey5123]

And this guy was playing this stuff at 12.

[@kellymiller6737]

What I think hearing clarinets in jazz. They sound so good! Such a beautiful sounding instrument. Edit - sorry, trumpet player here. Mutual respect.

[@spum789]

Has anyone pointed out that he uses the lowest pressure against the mouthpiece? It's like perfect. It's almost as if the mouthpiece is hovering just off his lips

[@metafull]

4:20 You can tell he goes to different manners , as he was clumpsy and heavy ( like an elephant) and right after that his sound goes as Fluffy and light as it was before ( birds), right after is like if You are hearing the whole circus of animals arriving

[@bobreiber2066]

If I hadn't seen it I would have swore that there were 2 trumpet players. I played the trumpet too, but didn't think it was even possible to do what he has done. Simply marvelous !!

[@Johnboysings]

Just his opening notes at 0:31 made me involuntarily weep with pleasure. The delivery, the sound, the phrasing are so magical and like no other rendition of this piece that I've heard. Then come the fireworks and they are literally breathtaking

[@BigEightiesNewWave]

I cannot name another player who can do this to this degree, it' truly mind-boggling.

[@BillSmith-rx9rm]

I’ve heard many great soloists played this piece wonderfully. But I have to say, I think this was the greatest fourth variation (the “finale”) I have ever heard. He really was emphasizing the main theme in that flurry of 16th notes better than anyone I have heard.

[@BillSmith-rx9rm]

16th notes? I meant 32nd notes.

[@josekalilsalles4706]

Very magic, outstanding, incredible. Nakariakov is brilliant.

[@spum789]

The freedom in this guy's play is magnificent. There are no points at all where it seems like he's struggling in the slightest.

[@ruthadams6390]

I know! He's something else, very special Indeed.

[@kcnate2131]

wow! So clean and precise. so musical. bravo!

[@danaleongmusic]

Amazing, he seems to be playing the same trumpet from years ago when he exploded into the world as a prodigy. Goes to show how much of it is the talent, THEN the equipment :)

[@sammy2840]

I started to play out of the Arban in 7th grade. Finished by 9th. Full ride trumpet major in college. What does it take? Play this 1,000 times! Now you might have the technique down. Then another 1,000 times to develop your own sound! In HS we played this with 1 finger to make it more interesting! But to stand up and perform it perfectly like this requires huge effort and monster talent! No substitution for hard sustained work!

[@jwhill7]

This has been recorded by some of the most famous trumpet/cornet soloist, and this is by far the best I have heard.

Best I’ve heard play this since Gerry Schwartz.

[@waynebritton1436]

Brad Stewart I agree with your statement. It’s hard to get any better than this. It basically absolute perfection except maybe certain interpretation differences. My issue with this one is the final variation is the blattiness of the accented notes. I’m sure he could play this section any way he likes but his over accentuation is not the delicate style I’m used to hearing on cornet solos. Maybe because I always have used Gerard Schwarz as the measuring stick for cornet solos. Have you heard Rafael Mendez rendition. It’s one of the few pieces that he plays without his classic Spanish tone and flair. And it’s no surprise his rendition is flawless as well.

Hell no they don’t get tired of it. This is the absolute number one piece that any serious trumpet player must be able to play. And once they have mastered it, it is pure enjoyment to perform it.

[@TheShahart]

@@BillSmith-rx9rm as a trumpet player of 20 years, " any serious" is a bit of an understatement

[@BillSmith-rx9rm]

@@TheShahart I'm not sure exactly what you mean by that. Please explain what you are disagreeing with me. That's serious players don't have to learn this piece? That you have to be "more than serious" to perform this piece? For that you don't have to be serious at all to play this piece? I'm not sure of your angle. Of course if you don't play classical music at all and are strictly a commercial or jazz player, then you certainly could be "serious" and have never learned this piece. But I think to be classically trained is a good thing no matter what genre you wind up in.

@@BillSmith-rx9rm "must" is the key word. Aspire.is a better word
