idk how many times i've come back to this but you're so darn good. you really deserve more views!

[@vroomoon]

Having listened to numerous other videos of yours, I seriously think you should release an album. You really are that good. I mean, think about it. You could make BANK. Your arrangements are fan-frickin-tastic and your tone and overall musicality... Holy crap. You are on-par with Wayne Bergeron. Seriously.

[@sebskelly]

Cheers, very kind words indeed - means a lot!

[@MrSwinginjoe]

Outstanding!!!!!

[@samuelf.l.trompete5545]

Congratulations, you played very well. Beautiful talent.

[@Raptor_Gaming18]

Your Africa arrangement was good but this one got you your sub

You sir, deserve WAY more subs and views. Absolutely amazing!

You play so amazingly good that I can't stop watching your videos

I don't understand who would dislike this

[@RoflmayoMan]

Fantastic as usual. You should do Its My Life by Bon Jovi, for the big bastard himself in honour of that twitch clip

[@sebskelly]

Haha hoping for a similar reaction ;)

[@matthewwortmann8561]

literally the definition of a one man band

[@BobbyLCollins]

Out of the box, this arrangement is superior to every single marching band arrangement of this tune ever written.

[@richardpalliser7495]

Very very clever………and time consuming………. Well done, thank you🎉

[@sebskelly]

Haha thank you x

[@supersuckygamer2575]

That's a nice euphonium you got there... It'd be a shame... If it was a fugelhorn

[@cardinalbuoyify]

Outstanding. So goox

AWESOME!! WOW

[@jackychan15011998]

[@xsolithasx1600]

Yes!! Just Yes!!

[@jacoaaron2]

Wonderful. I just saw Bon Jovi earlier this year. Will this arrangement work for brass quintet?

[@sebskelly]

Probably not, there's a few too many lines going on at once. It'd also mean everyone playing the whole time which would hurt quite a bit!

[@funtonite]

Aaron Jacobs He posted a quintet version. www.sheetmusicplus.com/title/bon-jovi-livin-on-a-prayer-for-brass-quintet-digital-sheet-music/20728698?ac=1

[@ernesttoday]

Dear Seb, i am making a video on a festival here in Holland. Can i use a part of the audio under the shots in my video? Offcourse i will credit you under the video. Would be great! Hope to hear from you. Greetz Ernest

[@King29Lewis]

You left out the Euphonium in the description.

[@shyanneholsclaw4531]

Do you play any woodwind instruments? Love the arrangements you do, keep up the good work!!!!!❤️😁

[@jacobtolar6608]

What do you use as your horn? A mellophone?

[@sebskelly]

Yes, I think that's what it is anyway…

[@paigecarr3254]

How do u get such a great tone quality on trumpet!?

[@MehrGills]

how does he play the trumpet well? oh, wait, he's an actual musician!

[@mozi4831]

practice

[@Octovol]

Good tone in brass playing as all about airflow, the more air the fuller the tone generally.

[@jhonatanantulioalvaradogra3314]

este tipo toca muy bien ami me cuesta eso de cambiar de embocadura pero a el le parese cosa facil pasar de trompeta a trombon

[@alexpritchett5766]

@sips

[@sebskelly]

The real guy

[@Minecraftcritict123]

As much as this is phenomenal it goes to show how composers don’t really understand the euph

[@masonharris9166]

I mean you could always play bass band pieces.

[@Minecraftcritict123]

That’s not the point half euphs are bass but the other are treble

[@masonharris9166]

You have to realize, euphonium is a fairly new instrument. There typically aren't even euphoniums in a symphony so they are typically only used in concert bands or brass bands. In concert bands, other instruments fill similar roles as the euph and most composers are more used to writing those anyway. Brass band is a different story. Euphonium fills all the roles. This is where it really shines. Check out some of Philip Sparke's stuff. It has amazing euph parts

What camera do you use to get nice tone with a brass instrument?

[@sebskelly]

I use an SM58 and edit the audio separately to the video. Check out my How It's Made video for more info!

Not my favorite. Don’t get me wrong, it’s stupendously well done, as always, but livin on a prayer just isn’t the best for a brass ensemble.
