I love how the 2nd part started off normal, then they went into the stratosphere, then it just became squeaks

[@Crepetomaniac]

Oh yeah it’s hard to make it loud when it get up there

[@msruag]

just turns into farts

[@ndrgaming7344]

I like how it goes from some random person in their house to a whole performance, like you get medium volume then just "BOOM"

[@Da_TboneLife]

So your basically telling me that it's almost possible to play every note on a piano on trombone?

[@heidisamuels7201]

But you can't play every note on trombone on a piano

[@Kyle-iu3br]

but some of them you gotta switch instruments

[@eggu-chan4101]

you can go even higher without a mouthpiece

[@SuperJxl]

the trombone beats the piano in range

[@samloyd9287]

On any brass instrument if you try hard enough.

[@diosofs2847]

I like how Eddie elsey created a new note

[@cool911]

i sub it Z

[@KirizenStudios]

it wasnt a new note but it was an insane D7

[@interestingperson7205]

bro plays the highest recored note in trombone history and then casually says "okay"

[@kkngd391]

Thank you for reminding me to practice my Long Tones

[@aletheia874]

ikr

[@game_ender4317]

When your a trumpet player and someone plays quite a bit higher than you can on a trombone...

[@isaiahmorris6566]

same 💀

[@theoverwatchlegend8688]

Bro I have a piccolo trumpet and I can’t even play that high

[@not_meepington]

I’m trying to increase my trombone range, I think it’s around E5 to Bb1. Note: I cannot comfortably hit E5, but if I get lucky or abandon sounding good a little I can get into the 5 range, although Bb5 is a bit more comfortable.

[@serenedarkness6257]

@@not_meepington I kinda figured out a trick for these high notes by curling your lips in and making kind of and M lip position if that makes sense… aim the air down to hell, and all of these high notes have a full sounding tone but I can’t play them in context to save my life…the trick is only good for the last note holds… which kinda stinks

[@oliverdiamond6594]

i love how the notes near and on the stave are played by professional concert trombonist during performances, and the really high and really low notes are just played by randos in their own home.

[@samridings4525]

I love how every low note is just someone cranking the shit out of it then there is New York Low Brass at 0:37

[@carringtonpilon1310]

1:55 Oh! My tea is ready! 😅 Seriously though, that’s some serious chops! Getting that high intentionally, and so clearly as well, is quite impressive! *Says the clarinet player* 😊

[@meltedgingerbreadmusic81]

The last notes by Eddie Elsey were B6, then C#7, then Eb7. Eb7 is higher than a flute can play! Edit: i have perfect pitch but confused my octave numbers again

[@borsalinokizaru7450]

I heard a slightly sharp D8, but I might be wrong

[@subsonicbass]

Hit an F5 on a solo during a pep band rally and I felt like a god for a split second… it would have been better if I never saw this LOL 😂 serious talent here!

[@counterfit5]

I used to use a recording of my cousin playing F4, F5, and then F6 as a ringtone for him. People's reaction was usually "what the *FK* was that?"

[@lemagicbaguette1917]

C8-Bb7 tremolo. 1:57 Either that, or a car is about to crash through his wall.

[@louisleduc4220]

He goes up to D at 2:00

[@fennec752]

this video really shows off the diversity of the trombone in terms of sound i mean holy hell

[@brendanmoore9358]

The guy at the end😂😂 Hits a note that isn’t even on the scale and just goes okay after like nothing happens

[@theohornsby51]

B natural going in C for Mahler 2 was a wonderful moment. I can’t put my finger on the B natural song at the moment tho 😢

[@drewparet5145]

The "okay" at the end is what really got me.

[@KirizenStudios]

he casually made me feel bad about my range on TRUMPET, with a TROMBONE

[@BazzyBaka]

2:00 Guy sounds like a steaming tea kettle and then proceeds to say “okay” Huge Flex

[@edsherrod5216]

It's one thing to play a single note, but another thing to have the flexibility to play it in music (such as in an eighth note run) whenever it is needed. Some of the pedal notes and some of the extremely high pitches played on this video I wonder about.

[@memelord417]

At the end all I could think was "Honey the tea is ready." "But the water isn't even simmering?"

[@HakanAToker]

Thank you for this useful and fun video! It would be even more helpful if you indicate which types of trombones were used in it. Some of those lowest notes must be on a bass trombone, rather than tenor, isn't it?

[@striker_0]

Could even be on a contra right?

[@gearaddictclimber2524]

Yes, in fact most are played on contra for those double pedals

[@HakanAToker]

@@gearaddictclimber2524 thanks so much for the info!

[@trombone3813]

not necessarily, i play bass trombone and i can get all those low notes on tenor(besides the F0)

[@gearaddictclimber2524]

@@trombone3813 Yeah I’m aware, I play bass too and can also do so. It’s just easier to hit on contra and they had to include some contra players so they’d have enough players for the video

[@Sheeeesk]

0:13 lowest note on viola c3 1:50 highest note on viola e6

[@TheChilepepper27]

I'm looking forward to the followup video showing a trombone playing Bb3, as your clip of a Bb3 is played on a sackbut.

[@Sheeeesk]

0:28 lowest note on Cello c2 1:47 highest note on cello c6

[@quack2024]

these trombones can play higher that i would ever play

[@TheFuzzyCuber]

Eddie elsey even stretching past treble clef

[@KennediDiy]

They make it look so effortless 😭

[@Sglagoomio]

"All notes played by different trombonists" Eddie Elsey:

[@Justaguy607]

The guy at the end with a simple “Ok” killed me

[@juliandavidcarranza9942]

F0 sounds like the trombone is depressed and just wants a brewk

[@olivearrington8672]

thank you, i was so confused on all the a's this helped me understand it so much better

[@q12aw50]

That last note is fluctuating between a B6 and a D7 mostly being C7 and C#7 Edit: it caps at Eb7

[@amazing1904]

as a trombonist, i know how bad you have to murder your lungs to go that high.

[@zwad07]

Thanks for reposting this on the new channel!

[@meltedgingerbreadmusic81]

It’d be cool if they did this for every instrument. Such a satisfying video

[@EmmaBeann]

They probably have 😂

[@donsmith9952]

missing Dave Steinmeyer and Bill Watrous

[@PumilateVFX]

Y’all need to listen to jazz trombone players they can just play an f5 and even higher like it’s nothing

[@sghg]

Starts from regular trombone to tuba to ABOVE THE RANGE OF A flute👀 just a normal day in my band class lol

[@mr_korok4469]

1:14 REST IN PEACE

[@theloonz]

"(trombone)EEEEEEEEEEeeeEeEeeeEeeEeEEEEE" "...okay."

[@sdproductions7236]

Best Bb1 ever recorded and the last guy hit a D7 at the end

[@Buur303]

amazing video thanks

[@mmarci23]

If trombone ytps were deleted plz reupload them

[@TheTromboneClips]

I will in the trombone memes channel

[@bryanhenderson8807]

Well, that's the first time that I heard a skreech trombone!

[@Aaron_Trombone]

I can only play a Eb up two octaves. I think, I couldn’t tell if it was an E or an Eb. We don’t talk about the other high notes.

[@finlayoguku3140]

Eddie started his own trombone villain arc

[@ricardomolla460]

We did you stopped uploading content? I liked this videos :)

[@KirizenStudios]

the last note went up to D7, what a legend

[@Sheeeesk]

bass string notes E1: 0:36 A1: 0:31 D2: 0:25 G2: 0:20

[@ale_isanodd1]

now we need a different trombonist each played by a different note 🤔

[@19dollarfortnitecard46]

As a tuba player when a regular f sounded like a fart on trombone I was starting to think why we got the lowest instrument as our name

[@violeth149]

i love how the lowest trombone notes just sound like farts

[@gaiaxyzs8802]

F0 is actually crazy

[@Rhovanion85]

The last note is me after eating a burrito from a questionable good truck.

[@ever822]

Never thought id hear a trombone played so high it sounds like a flute.

[@thatoneshortfriend186]

For all that are wondering that final note got to an eb idk which octave, but there you go

[@q12aw50]

Was wiggling around B6 to D7 and capped at Eb7

[@pravesweaty1310]

Btw I might not get a response because it’s a month old but I was gonna ask about well range, specifically when hitting a note that is above your limit. My limit has been an F#(above the staff) and I just hit a super G and also a super A natural, but they sound like they are being pushed out and don’t sound great. I wanted to know if this is going to happen because my lips aren’t used to it or if it’s just my ombosure.

[@lovisakarlson5754]

From my experience the more you practice the high register the better they become. So as long as your lips aren't hurting keep on playing, you'll get there. Of course it might take a while but it's worth it. Also, I really recommend using glissando a way to practice high register, because that way you can move towards your goal note one quarter of a note at a time or even smaller. There is a great video by Christopher Bill on this way of practicing. Check it out and good luck!

[@atomikbbt]

It may also depend on the quality of the trombone. I had a Chinese one with no brand and I couldn't get a higher note than F. I bought a Thomann TB 525 (made in China still) and I can go up to C now. The instrument has to resonate with you.

[@jamier65551]

Embochure

[@gearaddictclimber2524]

They always sound weird the first few times. Make sure you’re playing etudes or other things that’ll get you playing near where your limit is to strengthen that are if your chops. Also make sure your getting the note out via your airspeed not tightening your embouchure. Some tightening must occur, but as long as you approach it with a good airstream, you won’t destroy your chops trying to get the high stuff out

[@atomikbbt]

@@gearaddictclimber2524 also make sure every time you play for 5min take a 2min brake so the muscles can rest. Otherwise the more you play the worst you perform and you get frustrated.

[@arctic280]

its crazy that the last few are higher than my highest trumpet notes

[@jameswilliams6946]

Absolutely beautiful

[@airconditionedplatypus]

I love the A1 clip

[@Somethingsomething4]

The person that did the C5 looks like my band director

[@Listenerandlearner870]

Really helpful. Avoid off the stave notes. You could show how to play fast passages in Berg's 3 Orchestral Pieces.

[@Blabhabonsteriods]

Last time checked the Bb is only in 1st position. Although this is coming from someone whose still in school so I don’t know everything there is.

[@diegomehta4161]

Im surprised a soprano trombone wasnt taken out. These peoples ranged are crazy

[@TheHispanicUsername]

Pov when you cant even play as high on clarinet 😭💀

[@giuliodiminni5678]

bro playing a flute at the end lol

[@netochavez1493]

Im in 8th grade and I can only hit a C5, its crazy to see people that have such incredible range!

He is smart

[@macart5429]

Viola open strings C-0:28 G-0:53 D-1:07 A-1:22

[@gargolgaming8101]

low notes are so ominous and scary to be honest

[@jah.morant]

That sounded like a D7 at the end, yet here I am, in top band, and constantly cracking high Fs 😑

[@jakerussell135]

i think he briefly hit Eb7

[@q12aw50]

Went from B6 wiggling around a bit to cap at Eb7

[@Sheeeesk]

Lowest note in double bass: 0:35 (E1) Highest note on double bass: 1:14 (g4)

[@MX.D.]

As a 2nd year trombonist I HATE 5th position. It’s just so uncertain. I- EUGH I hate it.

[@PumilateVFX]

1:49 1:32

[@colinrosenecker]

Last one sounds like a teapot

[@Guywithaspider]

went from *flaaarp* to *SQUEACK*

[@Sheeeesk]

0:37 rip head phone users

[@arsura0]

it literally just turns into a flute for the higher notes

[@andrewgomez8855]

The lower they go it sounds like a nasty fart lol

[@Sheeeesk]

Had no idea trombone could go so low

[@levimccoy4127]

“Okay”

[@pi_man3]

When the trombone sounds like a trumpet

[@NeonTheSquid]

Can’t believe Wes Funderburk wasn’t used for the high F!

[@Maggiethepokebowllover]

The Eb 5 is my favorite

[@tritonefreeze4058]

I thought the F0 at 0.5x speed sounded like a helicopter.

[@Sheeeesk]

lol it does

[@tillytyrone1911]

Shown the highest note on the trombo blind, you would probably think that its some child screaming

[@Sheeeesk]

Lowest note on violin: 0:53 g3 Highest note on violin: 1:56 a7

[@Jintythebestengine]

Eddie Elsie. God of mouth

[@Grampaajoe]

the "okay" at the end

when a trombone plays higher than you (im a french horn+trumpet player)

Alright 6 octaves is crazy

[@jynztroyd.deasis7423]

i can go around from G1 to Eb5 in my Alto trombone Bb

[@anonymousprime3395]

The last one was an unstable climb to D7

[@benjaminrenner7923]

oh think ma tea's ready

[@arthurfilion5992]

That last one varied between b6-C#7

[@jonathandevers6609]

Omg I used to take lessons with Colby at 0:27

[@Dadood_Frumcheers]

I believe that questioned note is somewhere between C7 and F7

[@definitelynotcampchikin]

shoutout to eddie elsey

[@luke4725]

1:31 I personally know him. I was one of his students.

[@coretto958]

last one went from a C# to D# fast

[@epicbrumoment8810]

1:30 and that is where my range stops… a D5
