lmaooooo Wynton Marsalis got it in 10 seconds as soon as she flicked the B-flat key

[@robertadinolfi4217]

I took trumpet lessons with Maxine Fields Knepper. She also taught French Horn. Google her.

[@benren10]

Wynton Marsalis is a god 😂😂😂

[@michaelshelley1289]

i loved this....that was a lot of fun!! and Mr. Marsalis.....go on boy....represent us trumpet players!!!

[@landocalrizzi6921]

Wynton just being an undeniable legend.

[@firehandszarb]

I feel envy when a complete beginner makes a decent sound.

[@ElKalpatty]

that breakdancer made me so nervous

[@VSTARMAN51]

I am certainly not a horn player (but I have a 1960's Bb cornet) - Sarah makes it look so easy...very enjoyable 'horn challenge'!!

[@hanj31]

wanton Marsalis played the horn in high school Idk if that should count but it was still amazing nonetheless

[@MsShelie]

5:48 'a one, a two, a you know what to do!' the coolest counting I've ever heard lol

[@hb1173]

shout out to all the french horn players!

[@HenJack-vl5cb]

How wonderful was this!

[@DanielSmith_19]

What was the Australian Horn section playing? It was gorgeous I'd also love to know what the song at the start is. Also loved it.

[@nemo227]

I tried a cello one day and it's a LOT different than a string bass.

[@qwiklok]

what is that beautiful clip at the intro everytime. I love it.

[@seyranadilov3285]

Sarah thank you .you made my day.

[@iliassakalak]

So nice, human and cheerful!! Well done!

[@evenhembre1388]

9:56 I just love Sarah!

[@cejotajunior3151]

Cheia de charme!!!!! show de bola. Super animada, essa prof.

[@themusicwriter6449]

My university professor told me during brass class to never let my students hear me play horn, and I'm a trombone player. Lol

[@counterfit5]

themusic writer just stick your hand in the bell and miss a bunch of notes

[@Bozeman42]

This makes me so happy

[@marcjoutet4772]

Good fun that’s what music is about ! 👍

[@MisterHowzat]

O my, that was so fun!

[@kathipaul04]

Alan, this is the wrong way round! 😂😂😂

[@yowassup6098]

As soon as she said top 2 I knew one would be the wynton Marsalis horn challenge

[@gon9684]

Lol, I'm an horn player and I'm not sure if I can play those Wynton Marsallis runs that easy lol

[@KingfisherLtd]

Wynton you are great!

[@The_RetroManiac]

9:06 This gotta be my favorite rendition of Rule Britannia.

[@stickom]

Ivan Fisher!

[@leafyanimations4777]

I playing that too lol :3

[@italomasi]

Adoro seus vídeos!!! Pena não falar tão bem a sua língua.

[@dwnews]

Thank you! /ml

[@danayang7712]

Wynton Marshalis MY LOVE!! ❤❤❤❤

[@counterfit5]

Good there was a camera around for the Placido Domingo segment

[@kevinbwillson4161]

Sarah Love your ever loving music

[@brownsfan6447]

As a horn player, it is so crazy how much of this becomes second nature.

[@astro_manta9733]

I'm a trombonist and looking at the french horn the bore is tiny. The mouthpiece has a diameter of about 17.5mm which is only 5mm larger than a trombone with no mouthpiece and playing trombone with no mouthpiece is hard, I tried it once. You guys must have lips of steel.

[@tuchedigelseicinta]

Maestro Fischer is awesome

[@jessenelson8906]

I am trying to learn how to play the frecn horn...Why is the octives so sencitive?

[@zangoose..]

Jesse Nelson I don't know the specifics but if you're having trouble changing intervals/pitches practice lip slurs with all open and down the chromatic. Sing the pitch in your head before you play it

[@bornajesusfreak]

LOL the horses!

[@HornCue]

Needs more horn

[@laylalopez6612]

💕💖

[@raulomargarcia]

Wynton for the win!

[@Fed-np9ez]

I am positive Wynton Marsalis is a god.

[@kettlepal3434]

What’s the trick for getting the high E

[@theoolifent9074]

B3T0R4H L!4N0Z push your bottom lip out. It may seem weird but if you can get used to it then you should be fine. If you have the money, buying a larger mouthpiece is also good. I use a schmid size 11 traditional and was able to move from a top c as my top note to a double c on my first practice with it

[@unknownkingdom]

To get the high e you have to get high on e

[@RFranisco]

7:10 HOLY...

[@frenchhorn9391]

My lips hurt just listening to that

[@SimplyChinese]

My vote goes to the kids in the end 11:47

[@Harmonikdiskorde]

This is like Nailed It but for ...horn.

[@exaltron]

I honestly don't get how Wynton's fingerings are so fluent playing with the left hand. Does he play trumpet left-handed?

[@meanathradon]

I believe he can play trumpet upside down which inverts the brain synapses to go to the left hand instead of the right hand.

[@sebastiansprotte2551]

Jazz musicians do some weird stuff for practicing ;)

[@danayang7712]

Ive done that when I feel our pieces in the orchestra is too boring. They say its a good excercise, to get faster fingers on the right as well. How I dont know though

[@colinberry707]

Wynton is left handed and he plays better than all the right-handed player.

[@zipotas7407]

[@TH-bd6oi]

SANTA, THE REAL CHAMPION!

[@gilbertoescobar5391]

I love you

[@spoilerzado]

Winton Marsalys is a god

[@Tri-tipTim]

Sarah, you are so cute 😍

[@tromboneJTS]

At 2:32 an ewok entered the studio

[@cumulusterraticus3446]

💃🎶🎶 H 🎺 ILLARIOUS O 🎺UTPUTING R 🎺 EAL LOUD . .N 🎺OISES IN A VERY SOPHISTICATED EXPERT MANNER ❤🤔

[@tejasnair3399]

Somehow nobody’s mentioning how pretty the interviewer is.

[@jessenelson8906]

Everyone that tries to play and brass or a wood wind.....

[@arnaudparan1419]

I'm actually surprised that many conductors can't play the horn. I thought you needed to be able to play every instrument at least a bit to be a conductor because you would need to know specificities and subtleties of the instruments including their range and the weird stuff you can do with them.

[@y33tboy97]

French horn in my class suck

[@ThePumpkinBoatMC]

Wait... SANTA'S NOT REAL!

[@hugojames85]

You should combine the Horn Challenge with the Ice Bucket Challenge, Sarah - and get the Horn Bucket Challenge! It's the way I tell 'em, so it is....

[@webz3589]

Santa isn't really

[@erickborling1302]

Behaving unsafely. Respect diminished.

[@bossfan49]

Huh?
