Epic Low Brass Game of Thrones Theme (Cover)

★Buy the track, and we’ll make more videos.★
Game of Thrones Theme (cover) for 23 Low Brass. (11 Bass Trombones, 6 Contrabass Trombones, 6 Tenor Trombones, 6 Tubas, and 3 Cimbassos)

A few New York City low brass players were joking around at a gig a year ago, talking about how much fun it would be fun to record an arrangement of some cool piece of music with an "extra low" low brass section. (Meaning: an extra special amount of bass trombone players, along with a tuba and a few tenor trombones.) An epic piece of music like the Game of Thrones theme would be perfect for this. The idea almost never got off the ground, due to the expected difficulties in putting something like this together. Two weeks ago, with the current Game of Thrones season coming to a close and the deadline approaching to release this track, they realized there was actually a 90 min timeslot on a random Tuesday afternoon when 6 contrabass trombone players were all going to be free at once. It was time to do it. Once you get Six Contra players in one place, you either run away fast- or join in. Seventeen other top orchestral and commercial NYC low brass players joined them, bringing the ensemble to 23 players, and this is the result. Enjoy the sound.

when the guys in the front row all picked up their contrabass bones, u know shit's about to get real

[thatotherguy]

There is something deep inside any low brass player that hears this and just starts cackling with glee, guaranteed.

[Shadow-nxyl]

i love that nasty growl that trombones get when they blast :) so epic

[IziFiz]

Ok, anyone else love that feeling you get when the low brass section hits that low octave in warm up or whatever and you can feel the vibrations of the sound in your ribs? And it fills up your entire body and its mindblowingly amazing? God I love that.

Is it legal to have this many bass trombones in one room??? ✌🏼👍🏼

[MedicMuffin]

It's my goal in life to play in a low brass ensemble like this
The sheer power of all those bass bones in one room (to say nothing of the contras) sends shivers down my spine

[VerucaSallt]

This is badass.  Thanks for the eargasm.

[tobiasschultheiss]

just wondering how 'misty mountain' from 'the hobbit' would sound with them...

[iaintobeezy]

when they pulled out those contrabass trombones i had a brassgasam

[Korino]

The divine flatulence of God is the best way to describe this.

[Chinesepizzagames]

that was the most epic shit I ever took

(sorry there were too many relatively sophisticated/civil comments and I felt the need to butt in)

[dawnpoint]

I can't even fathom my lips vibrating that slowly

[BrianTWeingartner]

As a trombonist and recording engineer myself.... I can't get over how awesome this is!  Stoked for the behind the scenes video! 

[xNukedApplez]

fun fact: playing low brass leads to hair loss

[Kingkhris]

0:38 gotta love how they picked up those contrabasses man! they looked so in the zone

[portacole]

Let trumpet players quake in their boots as they hear this

[tonyclements]

Low brass players don't need no steenking conductor!!

[OsmosisHD]

Most vids containing "Epic" disappoint me.
But this one delivers!

[roykillough]

Bass Trombones getting to play Contra Bass Trombones only in our dreams

[paulstodolny]

As a Trombone player and lover of Film Music, this makes me extremely happy.
