Usage comes under fair use for the purpose of education.
Corrections:
Error in soprano trombone part bar 148 where an interval is missed and the final note he plays should be on the first beat of bar 149.

02:11 Bari Sax Solo

it's a soprano trombone not a tenor and TURN ON CLOSED CAPTIONS. also this transcription is kinda bad, find some more recent ones on my channel:))
0:40 Andrew Huang bottom right
Notes and corrections:
Probably should be a very very fast 4/4 technically with the head being mainly crotchets
Bari sax should really be in treble clef. The Musescore file is available in the download link so you can just swap it. Didn't know this at the time :)
Error in soprano trombone part bar 148 where an interval is missed and the final note he plays should be on the first beat of bar 149.
Bar 102 first note is clearly supposed to be a Bb.
Bar 174 I missed out the last note of the bar (rhythm shown in bar 176)
Bar 188 the Ab in the band is a phantom note and shouldn't be there
also im not 100% sure but i think the trombone part(excluding s. trombone)should be in bass clef as trombone is not a typically a horn that is transposed to other clefs.then again im not sure how the music is meant to written
@@Ian-ue9tq ill be honest i don't really know either, i transcribed this when i wasn't very experienced
@@GeorgeCollier yeah, I think trombone is traditionally in bass clef, but as you said it’s easily changeable on the file

To be completely fair, Garrett always has looked like that lol
But, the bari sax doesn’t read bass clef

I don't know what I expected from a soprano trombone, but that tone was crisp and clear without being harsh. Definitely a unique sound!

Currently taking lessons from Wycliffe Gordon. He’s without question the most knowledgeable and skilled musician I’ve ever met.
Dude what an honor!
That drum player is actually insane, his hand independence is better than mine that's for sure
Thanks man!

@@droobers1314 Yep!
@@connorkent6840 Jeez 4:11 is impressive! I would assume it just takes a lot of practice to get that down?
@@stickmanonastick6089 Practice for sure, but also you need to be able to play it slow and understand how those rhythms fit together. The coordination of my ride cymbal and the snare drum accenting with the trumpets. The rhythm (since thats been a topic of discussion in this comment section) is phrasing eighth notes in groups of five.
The 2 bars of "nope" was by far my favorite!
(2:51)
'nope again' at 4:13 lmao
I wonder why he just put the "nope" there. I could clearly hear every note played, yet I'm aware that it's not played along with the beat, but there's a specific notation used for that purpose, i.e. look at the last page of Chopin's Nocturne No. 20 in C-sharp minor
@@bjoern_eberhardt He might not have known how to transcribe it before your comment.
The composer had a sense of humor for sure
That drum part is really underrated, that hand coordination was insane
drummer looks like he has a theory to share with us
At first I thought S. Tbn. stood for Small trombone and then I realized the S was for soprano. Not my proudest moment.
Well, you weren’t exactly “wrong”. Lol
Same thing in this case lol
I ain't no music man but isn't soprano small
Soprano instruments usually are small but it doesn't mean small

Somebody: "Hey, I heard you were a musician, what instrument do you play?"
This guy: "The Trompet."
"The trumpet...?"
*"No, the Trompet."* (2:59)
That sounds much cooler than soprano trombone.
Also, since it's a trambone, shouldn't it then be trampet?
Trumplet
Good one man
There's a video out there that shows a repair technician making a slide trumpet. It's pretty interesting, if anybody's curious.
Hello, I have new channel, I post about music, all about music. can you please take a glance?

Oh my god. The drummer has the stamina and the coordination of a god. The Bass and Piano were fantastic. Everyone was just flawless. Great performance, man.

@@NearlyBatman just an amazing band all around
@@overzone666 Yeh tru
What came off that stage was pure gold......but can we appreciate the sound engineer who captured all this delicious, perfect madness so beautifully....?
Props to the bass player, he was TOTALLY SHREDDING if anybody cared to notice/pick up on it. Also never knew there was a such thing as a tiny "soprano" trombone, I've seen other vids with this same dude(Wycliffe???), he is the Mozart of trombone.
ive watched this a lot and this was the first time i noticed the bass player is literally going though hell and back the whole time
i have a soprano trombone love it
watching this with a sub, you literally feel the bass player going to town- props to him, incredible
I think the trombone is normal sized and the man is just exceedingly large.
Most instruments have soprano, alto, tenor, baritone, and bass versions, among other even more niche versions (like contrabass or sopranino).
What we would consider a "regular" trombone is technically a tenor trombone.
At first I just thought he was so big that he made the trombone look tiny.
This guy gave a master class at my college when I was still in school and it was incredible. Funny and nicest guy you can imagine. Very cool. Very grateful for that experience. Thanks Wycliffe!
BTW...just so everyone knows, this is none other than Wycliffe Gordon, also featured on this channel as "The Dirtiest Trombone Solo". Fantastic player.
no one clapped for the bass solo, but the rest of the band played over him, for like, the entire song. he never stopped playing, only letting his fellow rhythm section drummer solo unmatched
seriously, those eighth notes the entire song that sounded absolutely perfect and never seemed like he resorted to just play a full measure of the same note because he got lost. Not that I've ever done that, I've just heard that people have done that, y'know
This comment is highly underrated, thank you for pointing out the truly greatest feature of the band 😏
The bass was immaculate
Man knows the changes for sure
You know what they say: Bass is the underappreciated heart of music. Without bass, so many songs would fall apart.
When people destroy on baritone, they never gets the props they deserve
Ye
Honestly. One of my very close friend's little sister is the baritone sax section leader in her High School band and that section gets no recognition, and they're all so talented

@@milesminer5115 Sick!! I've been in my high school big band since early sophomore year, competitions are always nerve-wracking(not that we've had many thanks to covid rip), and people can be pretty egotistical about their playing but most of the time it's great. It's really fun and amazing for your music skills, I swear I learnt more in one month of band than 6 months of lessons.

I felt so bad for the drummer not getting applause for his perfect solo
Sadly drummers are under appreciated when it comes to bands/ensembles.
maybe the audience was to stunned by the solo, they forgot to clap?
@@tarvaious4094I think the clapping was there it was just overpowered by the instruments
@@connorericksonmusic I disagree. Drummers are some of the most appreciated in a band or ensemble... For this instance though I don't think you could even hear the clapping because of the instruments.

Videos like this make me wonder where I have been.
SO much more left to see and hear. Thanks.
I love the bass players taken aback, kinda shocked response to the drummers solo. Almost like "Oh damn, this is what hes pulling out? Alright! Havent heard this yet"
Good eye. The drummer went for the cowbell like he was calling all his coked-up cows in for some high speed milking.
@EMS 76
The drummer had a fever.
At first I wasn't sure if the trombone was small or he was just huge, then I realized it didn't matter cuz that shit was amazing
0:45 lets appreciate the dude in the background ABSOLUTELY VIBING during his rests (bottom right)
The hardest part in the making of this video must have been the scat transcription. Good stuff
Shit, I met Wycliffe Gordon a couple weeks ago after a concert with him! He solo’d on a tune for a while using a mouthpiece, then let out a long note and attached his piccolo trombone to it. It was clean, smooth, and impressive AF
I’ve seen that mouthpiece up close. It’s the same cup diameter as his tenor mouthpiece, but it’s incredibly shallow
Your comment was wholesome af
You from augusta? He was my Jazz band teacher at Augusta University when I was getting my Piano Performance degree.

The scat subtitles are the funniest thing I've ever seen!
Towards the end the soli arrangements are out of this world! And the rhythm at 4:14 WHAT?!
Groupings of 5 16th notes I think
Yea it was quintuplet sixteenth notes in a measure of 6/4 I think… or something
@@theexcaliburone5933 No, regular 16th notes in 4/4 time but every fifth one is accented. This, combined with the impressive speed, creates a pretty intense syncopation. They're regular 16ths because each one is 1/4 of a quarter note like normal, not 1/5 of a quarter (or half), which would be quintuplets
@@theheathbar123 can confirm:)
I wanna say some form of 5:3 or something similar to that
For anyone wondering, the band is the University of North Texas One O'Clock Lab Band based in Denton, TX. Almost all of the musicians are in their low-to-mid twenties.

That POW at the end into the trumpet solo was such a POWermove. I was half expecting him to just drop the mic after that. But then again a gentleman like him is above such drastic measures, i guess. So instead he just neatly puts it back in the mic stand, smiles to himself and gives as a little nod, letting us know that he is fully aware that he just blew our minds. What a legend.

thanks for the captions, I had trouble understanding what he said
The Soprano Trombone is actually a slide trumpet. It was played before the valve trumpet was created. They used to play the in between notes that a baroque trumpet couldn’t play.
No the soprano trombone is a soprano trombone. A slide trumpet was indeed a baroque instrument but not really anything like the soprano trombone in this video. See this video for more clarification:
czcams.com/video/FrmwcxE_o9o/video.html
Wycliffe plays soprano trombone. They are very different instruments, with one being a baroque standard and the other a unique head-turner at a concert. The two have significantly differing shapes
@@edwardcooper7711 Thank you for the feedback. I am always looking to expand my knowledge in the Brass world.
IIRC the trumpet has a different bore profile from the trombone. But I could be wrong.
@@malthuswasright Not really suprisingly, yes its a little different but not totally different. They have a very similar sound. Well at least in the main ones. The bass trombone is a different case.
Anyone’s else’s brain just turn off when they see jazz sheet music?? Deadass thought that the sheet music was a different part than what was happening on screen 😂
my brain cant keep track sometimes
honestly it's because jazz isn't supposed to have sheet music. I can understand the necessity in a big band situation like this, but for a typical 4 or 5 piece band most of what's happening is improvisation based on the original melody
