I was in the middle of a 20 minute G watching this and cracked up with pictures at an exhibition with the growl. Great stuff.

[@da11king]

First hearing that humming sound while playing 😳 this guy is incredible and humble at the same time...got to go practice it 🎺😉

[@BrianHayesSax]

Great to see and hear the growl demonstrated along with different speed vibrato. Both techniques are seldom taught to beginners hence many players grow up sounding the same. The growl and vibrato are two excellent tools to help develop a signature sound on many wind instruments.

Living legend right there!

Great Trumpet player.

[@peterknechtli]

Great explanation. Thanks for sharing your experience.

[@BillMacPerth]

I seriously love this !!

[@jr2660]

Wayne is not just an awesome musician, but also a good teacher. His explanations are so helpful

[@AGUSTINMARTINEZ-lz2vc]

Great explanation wayne...what a sound

[@bluepythonproductions]

2:00 mind blown

[@potownrob]

This is awesome!! Thanks!!!!

[@chasesanborn]

Unintentional, I think, but the lav mic creates a vivid demonstration of the humming technique to produce the growl.

Wayne Bergeron is not only one of the best trumpeters around, he understands the concept of playing music, not just playing the notes. Benjie McCall is spot on regarding the "Dixieland" issue. J-Mo is way off the mark.

[@sammyjacksonofhollywood1245]

always think black peoples don't have a training, just do ur homework, trumpet is an African instrument and classical music, came to Europe through African peoples called the moors!!!.

[@trumpetman]

Love this but that term "Dixieland" has to go. Dixie refers to the pre-civil war US south, meaning the war over slavery. So we call a principally African-American dixie? No thanks.

[@GatorMH]

Really? You would get butthurt about a dumb term like that. Not the place to virtue signal.

[@trumpetman]

@@GatorMH Where is the place then? You call it out where it exists. My ancestors died for this music and people name it after the very people who oppressed them. Fuck that, would you be so up in arms if it were a Jewish invention named after the Nazi's? I don't think so. The butthurt is on the one triggered by and resisting the calling out what's so obviously a racist term.

[@GatorMH]

@@trumpetman to each their own my friend, I am simply stating I don't see it the same way as you. But at least there is good music, I think we can both agree on that.

[@trumpetman]

@@GatorMH Of course, but the only music we name after the enemy (at the time) of the people who created it is early jazz. Doesn't make sense.

[@gunmetalrug]

There are two theories about the origin of the word. One was a farm called Dixieland on Long Island, NY owned by John Dixie where escaped slaves could take refuge. Another was conjured by Northerners in reference to New Orleans, where they talked about the land of the Dixie notes. A Dixie note was a $10 bank note based on the Creole word "dix" which is French for Ten. So now you can rest easy knowing Dixie/Dixieland was never a pro-slavery place or song. BTW, the original name of the song was Dixie's Land.

Please stop saying Louis sound is not proper in classical music. I believe Mozart and Beathoven would have wtitten out concertos based on Louis Armstrong and Roy Eldridge sound and Style. Jazz has lost it’s uniqueness because a lot of modern jazz musicians approach jazz from the perspective of classical music and technique rather than personal sound. I cannotrelly tell if It is wynton or randy breaker Bergeron. You guys are al technically proficient, but where is that YOU. THE YOU we get in Armstrong, miles, Maynard, Hubbard, and even Chet. I find this you in a lot of pop musicians nowadays, you can recognise MADONA, Beyoncé, shakira and Bob marley just from their voice and Style. I started losing my identity when I started practicing the is Arban shit. everyone could tell in which room I was practicing when they look out for Me at the conservatory. I did not need to tell them where I was blowing. I am still pround of that . Please BRING BACK the the Jazz In JAZZ. IDENTITY we were attracted to all these Great Jazz Musicians because of their personal sound and Style not because they could play Arban or Hydn and all sound thesame like most jazz musicians have become. Dizzy said in an interview Wynton was just a good trumpet, and had no Style of his own, because Wynton plays classical. Miles Said That too.Wynton is just one exemple of out of most jazz musicians of the Past 40 years. Who relly cares if you have a classical technique. Turn play classical music and stay out of jazz.
