basil trying not to crack up kills me 😂😂

[@Blue-qr7qe]

I was impressed with Basil's restraint, when called upon to give you advice, for not quipping: keep the day-job. And, Caroline - you have a wonderful sense of humor to accompany your spirit of adventure.

[@justinblumberg8101]

Wow! This was fun. It could be like a series: The Musical Adventures of Caroline where each episode Caroline is schooled on a new instrument or musical stye.

[@michaelm6948]

Caroline, your trombone was much shinier than the maestro. That has to count for something!

[@Phillyfan45]

Bless her adorable heart. Loved her Beatle reaction vids.

[@user-ed5ng6lr1f]

Caroline ABSOLUTELY wins! No question about it. Try a reed next, sax or oboe.

[@salernolake]

Well done Caroline! I remember being told once by a successful businessman "Neil, if you're not doing something new that scares you a little, you're not growing as a person.

[@WaltMossberg]

Hilarious! You are sunny and funny and gutsy.

[@IsaacWale2004]

Oh wow I can't believe this actually happened! 😂 Amazing video! :D

[@ousetunes]

Had me in tears of laughter. Your eyes to camera had elements of Laurel and Hardy. Keep going; as a 53 Yr old Beatles fan you're just superb entertainment.

[@hhauffe]

Basil did a great job of keeping a respectful, even if bemused, countenance as you played. ~more fun than I expected :)

[@SouthCarolinaPicker]

.. I've said it before and I'll say it again: MissCaroline, you ARE a Treat :))

[@markhodge7]

Well, that was silly enough to start a Sunday morning 😊

[@sunshinecoolwater9528]

I'm primarily a guitarist, but I love the sound of an oboe. Embrace trying new instruments outside the box!

[@stephenbroughman3231]

Amazing effort! You are a refreshing part of the internet!

[@Stygosi]

I had a Clarinet tutor at lunchtime in Primary School who (80's era) clearly didn't think boys shouldn't play woodwind instruments and he never thought me that blowing trick! Different instrument. Possibly different techniques for woodwind instruments! But great video. Hope you make another trombone video next year or six months later to show where you've since gotten along with the trombone

[@thomasrenton4499]

Very silly, very sweet, loved it. Love to see you try your hand at a classic torch song.

[@billpaul6675]

Keep practicing! This is still just Caroline: The Early Years. When you become uber successful, we will have Paul Mccartney rank each of your songs in order, earliest to most recent. It will make Sir Paul a KZbin star! And of course, will greatly entertain the rest of us. Can't wait for the review of the inevitable double album! ❤😉

[@chrismartin6370]

That was good for the first time. I played trombone in school. Hardest part is getting your emboucher right. Fun video

[@geoffclarke1974]

Total commitment! Loved it.

[@davidbaise5137]

So nice to watch this. T-bone one of my favorites. With your great laugh and smile and attitude, C, you’ll have a wonderful time and succeed in many things!

[@CallMeCaroline]

Thank you so much!

[@IAMDRREMULAKK]

The most successful musicians in the world, don't try to sound like everyone else, or do it "properly". So therefore, I give you the clear win here, for making your trombone sound different and unusual. Good job!

[@CallMeCaroline]

I like this way of thinking! haha thank you

[@scottski51]

As an old (in all ways possible) trombone player, I find your video wonderfully refreshing! A beautiful instrument that makes lovely sounds, even from the beginner. And remember.... How do you get to Carnagie Hall ??? Practice, practice, practice!

[@opheliabelleu8025]

What a blast, Cazza, thank you! 😁

[@thegman8968]

🏆This was EPIC!! Caroline, you absolutely made that trombone "SING'! The trombone looks very intimidating (it's bigger than you!), and it looks heavy as well. I applaud you for even attempting this and keep trying, you never know! 🏋‍♀🏋‍♀🏋‍♀

[@hbkslush]

Never mind KZbin influencers & Tik Tok personalities, CAROLINE!!! is the most fabulous woman on the internet! If I was 25 years younger and single, I might propose (luckily for her, I'm neither). Caroline, as a former average trombonist, I say you are wonderful and you have made my day! Thank you.

[@nattymic596]

You’re amazing!! 😂❤ I loved the video and your facial expressions!! Thank you for the encouragement! 😘🥰

[@CallMeCaroline]

😊😊

[@TTM9691]

Although it wasn't going to give Tricky Sam Nanton a run for his money, you sounded way better than I would have expected! You got a big sound of that instrument! PS: Ravel's "Bolero", that has that fantastic trombone moment on it! Next time have Basil play that one! PSS: Duke Ellington, "Blue Cellophane" has a great trombone solo. And "Carnegie Blues" has a gorgeous trombone section playing together. The 1940s recordings of those songs. Ellington had an amazing trombone section in the 30s and 40s.

[@dontrombo2408]

Brave man! Good on you, Bas.

[@stephenelliott522]

You are so much fun! That was a blast! Keep having fun! I must admit though, I much prefer hearing your voice, whether singing or talking. :)

[@mconnaghan]

Nailed it.

[@lawrencegleason4666]

What a delight!! :)

[@thetragicyouth]

Hey Caroline - you got some good sounds out of that trombone! Admittedly, not sounds that Beethoven would have recognised, but full marks for effort nonetheless! On one occasion when David Bowie was stuck for inspiration in the studio, he had his band members swap instruments and the resulting slightly unhinged, off-kilter sounds proved very fruitful. Oh, and may I suggest you try the vibraphone and/or glockenspiel? 🙂

[@PogieJoe]

Next video to keep things ramping up: you perform a solo trombone concert.

[@gualdimpaisgrandemestre3362]

Bravo Caroline!!!!.

[@OtherLetter]

A network should give you a show, Caroline.

[@BillLaBrie]

I’ve long said the future is essentially trombonic.

[@sourisvoleur4854]

My son played trombone in the high school jazz band. I got to chaperone for the band when they played at Disneyland in Orlando. This made me think fondly of those old times. Good on you for trying something new and difficult and risking ridicule - Tom Scott would be proud.

[@jefferyshute6641]

From an ex-trombone player to a potential trombone player, my advice would be, "practice, practice, practice!" And have fun! 😎

[@davidcharcas3121]

I woke up Sunday morning to this I thought I was dreaming but no it was only Caroline in my dreams. The day can only get better thanks Caroline 😊

[@cliffhughes6010]

So, Caroline, a new career as a trombonist beckons.

[@CallMeCaroline]

Absolutely 😉

[@Scottie_S]

I chuckled for quite a while, but, Caroline....."you can do eeet!" You'll never know unless you try. Well done on the experiment. I'm a classically trained pianist and thought I'd be able to do everything well. I also play guitar and violin. So, I spent a crap-load of money on a saxophone and found that woodwind was not my friend. However, I persevered and was able to play it with a certain level of "competence". I won't say I mastered it by any means, though...

[@rotjrotk]

that gave me a smile and a laugh

[@CarlosPerezChavez]

We love you Caroline

[@forastero4ever]

Caroline, just two words: you're gorgeous!

[@Hartlor_Tayley]

That’s a fact

[@sharonsnail2954]

Bravo, Caroline and bravo Basil. Caroline, I'm visiting Oz from the UK in December (Perth and Sydney). Will I have the opportunity to attend a trombone recital of yours?

[@mst3ktemple421]

I was actually impressed you played an actual note on your first attempt. Most people have more difficulty getting the lip "buzz" needed to play. I was never great on any wind instrument and especially brass. I did almost by accident play the French horn at my own high school graduation because my high school only had two players and one was sick that day. I was in the orchestra and they asked if anyone could play Pomp and Circumstance so I said I would give it a try. The biggest challenge I had is that there were 600+ kids in out graduating class so we had to keep playing it over and over as they all entered.

[@WillStephensArt]

I played trombone for 7 years and STILL was never happy with my sound or articulation, it’s one of the hardest instruments to play well

[@lordlockdown64]

Haha, that was good, well done for giving it a try! How about having a go at saxaphone next time?

[@cinnamonrain8836]

This was fun! I used to play trumpet so I know how hard it is even to get a good tone. You made a very good tone in the beginning apart from not hiting the right note. But, well done!

[@martinmchugh001]

Yes, very interesting. When the pro played, beautiful thoughts sprang to mind. Then..."Close Encounters of the Third Kind" exploded on us...(the part where they initially try to communicate with the visitors...!)😂 But very well done. Gusto and self-confidence will get us far along the road...

[@alonsoquirosgranados7568]

We love you dear😂❤️

[@petehealy9819]

Too funny - and brave! Trombone was the first instrument I learned, in 5th grade (1963!), and while I played it through high school, my career as a performer (at least on trombone) ended there. What a fun video, and I hope you make it a series with other instruments, to which I'd propose: string bass (aka bass viol), bassoon (very challenging!), and, oh, maybe shakuhachi!

[@Wilhelm_J]

After a lot of practice you will get there , Caroline !! :)

[@tatjbere]

Pure entertainment 😄

[@kovie9162]

The trombone is one of those instruments that seems easier than it is to play, because it's basically a shaped elongated metal tube with a mouthpiece and slide, as opposed to much more complex looking ones like the piano, harp or bassoon. Of course it's not, no instrument is. I tried learning to play the trumpet in college, and while it was fun it was a lot of work and I ended up giving it up (it's also a challenging instrument to learn because it's so loud and neighbors don't exactly appreciate the noise). But I think the keys to mastering any instrument, or anything really, is one, endless practice, obviously, and two, having fun with it. Well, at least you checked off one of them. 😂

[@violapieper3523]

You are so gorgeous! 😁 Make me happy all the way 🥰

[@matthewbenedict5923]

I'm proud of you

[@buddyneher9359]

Caroline's personalised car licence plate (aka "number plate" to Brits): TBN PDG. You know what they say, Caroline, 10,000 practice hours!

[@TheEWFX29]

I must say even though you showed your inexperience on the instrument you did better than I ever could. I'm a musician but played stringed instrument and percussive instruments and sing. But I could never play wind instruments. You were actually making noise and had a ballpark grasp of the instrument. You would just need time and practice and someday I think you could play well. Most of us would probably get a barely audible whooshing noise and basically make music only a dog could here. So dont feel bad, though you showed your lack of skills on the trombone with time and practice you probably could play OK and after much time and practice you probably could be pretty good. Nice work and fun video. I definitely enjoyed this video and all your others. Keep enjoying yourself and spreading the love of music.

[@rareosts5752]

Great vid, Caroline, cool to see you out of your element a bit. He played wonderfully and Caroline got some tones out of it too, sometimes like the trombone was on the toilet after a 4am Maccas run, but who cares?

[@electricladyguitarsdevonuk1414]

Loving your channel. I think you'd get a huge kick out of listening to 'Concerto for Group & Orchestra' by Jon Lord, 1999 performance by London Symphony orchestra & Deep Purple at Royal Albert Hall. The pre & Post-Concerto performances are superb!

[@ploppill34]

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤️✌️✌️

[@rosmeeker1964]

It's all about moving air. All of it.

[@stephenbonaci4831]

So when do we get to see the trombone version of I Feel Good?

[@ploppill34]

Pardon me but did a duck just fart in here?😂😂😂

[@MichaelDBauer]

Of all the instruments you could have picked, the trombone had to be one of the hardest. No valves so the tones had to come from your lips and the proper position of the slide. Had to be tough, but you get an A+ for effort, plus it looked like you had fun doing it. I know I had fun watching the video. The only sound I would have been to get out a trombone would be percussion when I tossed it to the floor, but at least it would have been a sound.

[@fred993a]

Caroline - you are so lovable!

[@billvegas8146]

One hour down... 9,999 more to go says Malcolm Gladwell.

[@SecretAgentPaul]

Effort? Yes you did. Totally.

[@johnwilson3039]

Hope you are doing well have not seen videos for 3 months any take care.

[@DarraghC]

lolololol love it

[@Sopmylo]

Hark. I hear the sound of your neighbours. Fleeing.

[@OtherLetter]

Caroline, how about a segment where you rate bands or singer songwriters as being over or under rated. For instance, Taylor Swift, deserving of the five stars that she generally gets?

[@alanclayton9277]

For a lot of 20th century Classics repertoire you're technique is fine. Check out Punch and Judy by Harrison Birtwistle. You're right about learning and giving things a go. Just let the trombone go eh?🤔 The idea for collabs is a good one.

[@MatiuPirihimana]

Hilarious

[@PeterBuwen]

Very funny. I hope you forgive me. 😂 I could not have done better...

[@zahira_rania]

Reaction fleetwood mac album rumours

[@zedxxx9]

Wow!!! If I'd known how easy it is to learn trombone, I would have bought one years ago!! Bye Bye VI trombones!!

[@user-im2dc2ws5f]

It seems that you challenge yourself by playing difficult instruments. What is the next step? Playing the violin? 😀😃😄

[@wayne_twentyfive]

Hey Cazza ! .. So all you need is more air .. Problem solved ! .. We, your fans, will chip in for an oxygen tank for you .. Just wheel it around with you whenever you perform, hook yourself up, and voila ! .. Perfect Beethoven, 👌👌👌.. Thank me later. 😄

[@sterioapple]

It must be weird to learn. You make different notes with your lips and also make different notes with the slide. I'm guessing it could have been played a different way yet still ending up sounding pretty close to what we heard?

[@TheWadetube]

Very amusing. I wonder how many instruments you could suck at , all the wind ones, right? I suppose it takes practice but your playing sounds angry though your expression appears happy after you stop making the angry noises.

[@dabe1971]

No, the big question is - Are you small or is Basil tall !?

[@lawrencegleason4666]

I would rather hear you botch the trombone than listen to a minute of Taylor Swift! :)

[@Well_hello_there_]

I've seen worse! 🎉

[@mwflanagan1]

That was terrible. Thank you.

[@letsgomets002]

The worst instrument ever invented 😅😅😅

[@jawaka1000]

Okay, that's it. Unsubscibed !💔
