I liked the part with the black musician.
-
better at 13 than I am at 27... how can you hate this guy? mad respect.
-
I fucking love the way Wynton look at him during his solo. He knew he would be a star
-
Watching Wynton's pride of Trombone Shorty is a beautiful thing.....
-
Non-musicians have no idea how phenomenal it is that he is improvising and a great job at 13!
-
How is it possible that a 13 year old kid can play jazz on the trombone like this kid??? INCREDIBLE!!! A super talent!!! And when this 13 year old boy will grow up, he will get stronger, so will have even more power to play the trombone, so I'm looking forward to hearing the trombone music of this kid in 10 years' time.
-
So much soul, musicality, and musicianship at such a young age. The cool thing is that he is able to successfully bring his spirit and musical voice into other genres of music.
-
His tone sounds incredible for that age, takes a lot of time and practice to develop a sound that good!
-
He's amazing, and Wynton looks so proud of him. I've been lucky enough to see him live 3 times and I'm hoping to go again next week. Tremendous talent and a really sweet guy.
-
You do realize this is "the" Trombone Shorty. He's almost 30 years old now and one of the greats. Check out his number "Hurricane" or his song with Lenny Kravitz "Something Beautiful". And yea he still puffs his cheeks.
-
I'm a band director and trombone teacher, and while I DO "fuss" at kiddos about puffing their cheeks, I am a strong believer of (correct me if I'm wrong here, because I sometimes forget) Duke Ellington's quote, "If it sounds good, it IS good!" Puff away, my friend, puff away!!
-
A boy amongst men that can hold his own is what I see here
-
that's the ageless spirits of countless New Orleans musicians coming through that boy --straight out that horn.
-
Wycliffe Gordon is on sousaphone, that's when you know that they thought the kid was good enough lol
-
Literally no one criticized him for puffing his checks in the comments. The only mentions of it are from people saying that you shouldn’t criticize him :P
-
Wynton is like yep, this kid has definitely got it. Amazing performance
-
He's the reason I love playing trombone. Without listening to him I wouldn't have made it this far with trombone
-
That one guy just eating in the background. I at least thought he was eating.
-
Loved it! Wynton Marsalis looks as proud of Trombone Shorty as I am! Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra is amazing. Thank you for sharing!
-
I love how everyone else was so proud of him you could feel it in their posture
