Who knew that Pitbull was such an accomplished Tubist?

[andrewe.]

As a trombonist, that high high Bb is absolutely ridiculous. It took me years to get the range to be able to play that on TROMBONE. This man has talent.

[OmicronGaming]

behold: a transcription that goes six ledger lines above and below the staff during the same two minutes

[emmbeesea]

Came for the extremely low and high notes, stayed for the string of sighs and the lá.

[calvinmark]

As a tubist myself, those high notes are actually insane. I don’t think that even if I played tuba for the rest of my life I could hit those as consistently and cleanly as he does.

For those of you how don't understand German, the title of the piece is literally "There Dances a Tuba Bogeyman"

[simongail]

I could not stop laughing at the fact that a fan really transcribed the rhythm of his "anguished sobbing"

Great video

[oldgoat]

I've never heard a tuba played in that register and now knowing what that sound is, and how insanely difficult it apparently is, I'm actually a little sad, because that is one of the prettiest timbres I think I have ever heard

[djordjeblaga]

He absolutely nailed the lá goddamn 1:51

[Blobbyo]

I think this is your best work ever. "Anguished sobbing" absolutely sent me 😂 and how he managed to hit that high "LAA" so effortlessly is seriously impressive

[ModestForce]

Hey, fellow tubist, here. This man's range is out of this world. Also, the sung note near the end is one of my favorite things in music, now.

[essdsadad]

That is some insane talent, some of those notes feel barely possible on tuba, and he plays with a full sound Edit: when you comment soon after the release of a video you are much more likely to get 763 likes lol

Glad to see mnozil brass get the love they deserve

[Minotauronabike]

Then he goes on to do a bunch of insane variations... When I saw them live (yes I am blessed) the other players were chucking coins into the bell, and at the end he tipped over the tuba to dump them all out with his bow. These guys are the most talented and entertaining performers I have ever seen in my life. And they are LOUD. I was like 15 rows back and my ears hurt after.

[Lmjacks]

love mnozil brass, truly wonderful performers

[okolekahuna]

When I saw the high A coming up, I was wondering if he was going to be able to hit it...then he sang it. LOL. Awesome!

[bmags]

The trick isn’t just to hit those high and low notes, it’s to make it seem like those high and low notes are no big deal! Best range on the Tuba I’ve heard!

[saigipson]

He plays like he's on Euphonium. Beautiful.

[RoyceRemix]

Mnozil Brass are some of the funniest and most talented brass performers alive, so happy people will be discovering them as a result of this vid!
Their rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody & My Bonnie Lies over the Ocean are a couple of my all time favorites :D
