Oli Parker - Stan (feat. Jack Gardiner) Full Improvisation Playthrough

[@lalarazafimahefa2783]

The original encounter of two instruments 🎸🎺 mastered by each of their players which results in a lovely melodious track 🎼🎵🎶. Congratulations 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 and thank you 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻!!!

[@MarkArturo]

I am a 70-year-old amateur tap dancer and I love listening to your flugelhorn jazz improvs. If I find one about 2 1/2 to 3 minutes which is suited to tap, I will try a tap improv to your music and send you the video. (Just for fun, not for profit).

Sounds very interesting!

[@hfalalalala]

Cool!!

[@kayla6052]

This dude is insanely good

[@ViolinCover2025]

This cool, would love to see more collabs like these in future videos!

[@oliparker]

Thanks! Would love to do more in the future 🎺

Eres un auténtico artista Oli Parker!!! Saludos desde Valencia (España). Tu sonido es mágico. Mucho trabajo y mucho talento ❤

[@davidharrison3074]

Very nicely done Oli. The added flugelhorn add ons then Jack's playing was sweet. What a treat to hear this and you really did a wonderful job putting this together. So many things going on but could hear every part easily. Wonderful job Oli 👏🏻👏🏻🎺🎸

[@roodog1]

You’re telling me we get TWO VERSIONS of this song!!!!! LETS GO

[@dawgstudioswoohoo]

Well, I think the reason he made this is because there were a few ideas in some of the other videos about the track (his "Solo Challenge Time! video has a couple, if you're curious) that didn't make it into the final track. So he put them here, along with a few other little improvised bits here and there. A phenomenal video overall, I'd say.

[@MarkArturo]

Great stuff. Thank you kindly for sharing your passion. Love and good vibes from Montreal , Canada, - I just subscribed

Thanks for your comment, appreciate the support 🎺

[@oliparker]

🎺💪

[@adamhunter589]

Absolutely love this man, such a vibe. So jealous of you what a great player and a beautiful sound can't wait to hear more :)

[@dawgstudioswoohoo]

The thing I liked most about this track was that gliss in the last chorus (from B flat to E flat above the staff i think? it happens at approx. 3:36). It was such a cool touch and I instantly thought about that recurring gliss lick in Butterfly. Absolutely phenomenal.

[@rozovijkot]

so wonderful, I'm crying

[@brucek6563]

Mood music!!! So cool and smooth!!!

[@Logic9Pro]

The background voices from "Fluidity" are really nice here! Cool to see how you implement cross-references in your improvs.

[@dawgstudioswoohoo]

yeah it was really cool that he pulled the gliss lick from butterfly towards the end, during the last chorus

[@adlthm9040]

Again. The BEST.

cleeeeaaaaannnnnn👌

[@emeraldminer]

I love these videos. Would you be interested in doing something for My Neighbor Totoro or Howl's Moving Castle?

[@bayastanbaktybekov]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@PELVIS361]

I'am in ecstacy😮

[@timothydavis2568]

Really love your stuff, hate that the first comment I leave is a critique. Stan is one of my favorite rap songs and doing a full improv session over the track was kind of a let down. I would love to hear more return to the licks in Stan, or a pre-written piece that solos between melodies or even includes the lyrics. I cant be the only one who feels let down listening to improve played over classic tracks, in the future you may want to improve over lesser known songs. Something you may want to think about, keep up the awesome music!

[@petertoth3470]

very cool keep cooking

[@oliparker]

thanks 🎺

What is your biggest tip for beginning improv on trumpet?

[@user-jw9kg5rt4d]

I like to think of improv as just predicting what comes next. Everyone builds their own assumptions over the years through listening to music and have their own prediction what comes next, hence their own improv style. I would say start with taking half a melody and finishing it yourself with whatever comes to mind.

[@sungjikcha1956]

what kind of flugelhorn and mouthpiece are you using?

[@dawgstudioswoohoo]

yamaha custom + a Phil Parker mp which i unfortunately cant remember the model of

[@hukeeeeeeeee]

cool🎺　Nice　guy😊

[@beaverbuoy3011]

:O

[@BigEightiesNewWave]

[@TheFisico1]

I really enjoy this, maybe you can enhance your "backing" production, it sounds very looped and generic.

[@theendlessvoid7124]

Very late but it's the backing track to stan by eminem

[@jacuhbmusic]

You are a great okayer but your music just sounds too sterile for my taste. Keep up the great work.

[@dawgstudioswoohoo]

no hate im just curious what you mean by sterile
