everyone gangsta until the trumpet score looks like a violin score

[FSUfanOFtheBAND]

To a regular person, he just played the trumpet really high. Big deal.

To a person that's musically inclined, you're attempting to pick your jaw up off the ground.

[ezrafenwick]

That was pretty normal, until it really wasn't.

[CameronStPeter]

I have studied trumpet for 14 years. That upper register, with that tone, is reserved for the gods.

[Bog]

"we all know the mic was just there for recording, he didn't need it for amplification"

[scootermcscoot]

That moment when you realize he could definitely play this up an octave

[Puchy]

I bet even the trumpet itself haven't expected to make such a high tone.

[ButterIean]

The casual listener will never truly understand how hard Arturo’s trumpet playing is. This is art

[jerjerbinks_]

I’ve played the trumpet before, and seeing this makes me feel light-headed.

[seanspartan]

At that point fingerings really don't matter and it's all embouchure. That man has amazing control of his face muscles. I would have gone beet-red and passed out...

[kalidaniels]

*when it surpasses the highest notes a clarinet can play*

[djjazzyjeff]

1:40 you can hear every muscle straining desperately to hold the note, and he does it. Incredible.

If you've never played an instrument like that before, here: Imagine a Usain Bolt is running the 100 m dash and just starts sprinting upwards into the sky halfway without missing a step. Or a painter is painting your portrait and starts using ultraviolet colors and somehow you can see them. This goes from "That's a crazy run!" to "What am I watching?!" really fast. My lips hurt for him. Brilliant.

[khersy]

Lost my freaking shit as a trumpet player I can’t even begin to compare his breath support of that wow such air control

[Yaimdan]

Maybe people aren't fully aware, but that's like mind blowingly impressive.

[KingOath]

The trumpet actually sounds better up that high than it normally does. It seems to take on a different personality. It sounds almost like a synthesizer.

[SheeshMaster]

Im amazed at his ability to retain his skin color and not go full tomato

[MJKFanatic]

The quality of his tone in the upper register is sublime.

[benashe]

That’s the highest note on a flute. Being played on a trumpet.

[sheilahgloria]

As a trumpet player, this is a perfect way to unalive oneself 💀🙂The fact that he didn't pass out after, makes this even more madly impressive than it already is!😭
