they said it's IMPOSSIBLE to play without moving the slide...

Can you name all the tunes?

If you are an animator or an actor, start taking notes ;)...

0:05 William Tell Overture
0:16 Ride of the Valkyries
0:24 Major Scale
0:32 Falling down stairs
0:36 Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, but it punches you in the gut

Now pull a Wycliffe Gordon and do the opposite. One note while moving the slide. I will never forget going to a jazz camp and in his master class he just casually wiggles the slide while sustaining the same pitch.

They: "Impossible to play without moving the slide"
Natural Trumpet Players: Am I a joke to you?

[TheOminousBlade]

The cut “oh” at the end is something I felt so bad considering he got all the notes right for everything else, something I can sympathize with even though I’m a trumpet player

My heart dr is a jazz trombone player. I have respect for anyone who can play let alone without moving the slide. Takes a lot of skill. Love your vid

Now try not using the trigger, no way you can hit middle C with no slide movement or isotherm trigger.

The across the beat transcription of William Tell triggers me to no end

Me and the first chair trombone at my school love find alternate positions to things and have the most ridiculous combination

[marcdumont]

You can play just about anything without moving the slide if you go high enough

[bonemasterj]

I fasten my slide tip to the wall and gyrate my torso back and forth to get the right position.

[lordmusea]

Ok, that B-flat scale with no slide was very very impressive!

[carlw]

🤣🤣 Yes the last note must've been done on purpose. That's really funny. "Ohhhh ya stupid wabbit, not like that, like this. daa dadaaaa dadaaa dada da dah duh duh KABOOM" (Bugs bunny and Elmer Fud for those old enough to know that reference.)

[OmegaDoesThings]

Yeah, like, anyone that says <insert brass instrument here> can't play without touching their valves/slide is basically saying "I'm telling you I've never been in band, without telling you I've never been in band." The things I've heard the brass do with just mouthpiece are *nuts* and you just can't do that with woodwinds.

[Rylee_G]

The most glaring gap in my musical education (aside from skill) is brass. How do it work even :o

[edwardfeys]

I'm the person who always does this in my band, much to the indifference of the other band members.

[warwickthekingmaker]

It's almost like this piece was written to be played by trumpets without valves

[PiotrBarcz]

Tim, my guy, that William Tell Overture sounded so damn good I had to watch this a second time and still can't get enough of it xD

[tonki_yt]

This is when ling ling can play trombone

[hastymemer]

Respect!! That groan at the end got me! 😂
