Holy shit. Definitely the best sounding player I've heard at this age. Just wow. He sounds better than a large number of professionals. Pretty funny how underwhelmed his family is. He's definitely a prodigy.
All the critics are jealous because it's not them...That's really sad because it's obvious that this kid has a very bright future ahead of him. For all those haters I have one word: PRACTICE. If you're better, prove it. ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS.
As a professional trombonist who has been around for quite some time, I can honestly say that I've never heard a young trombonist with such a refined musical sense. This piece is actually much more difficult than you may realize. No super technical passages, but to play with intonation as good as this as well as the time and subtlety of his performance is really aquite remarkable! I'm afraid I'm going to have to disagree with you buddy.
1) He is most likely able to perform the same concerto with much more musicality. 2) He's already made it into an orchestra and is receiving a set salary. How does the trombonist feel? Impressed, maybe, but that trombonist probably not care...
Classical music is in good hands in this country' - I don't think so. We have hardly any university orchestras, our county orchestra and town orchestras, if we have them, are mediocre at best. Decent opera and ballet are only available in the likes of London, and even on CZcams there are hardly any British windband performances of windband classics by the likes of Holst or V-Williams. In British schools classical music is a dirty word and not too long ago the French Horn and bassoon etc, were deemed endangered instruments. Children pay for lesson in schools, they are expensive and as a result performance is a middle class pursuit. GCSE and A level music syllabi have been dumbed down. 'Young Musician' is a great idea with brilliant contenders but it is of minority importance and in the UK anything decent or intellectual, like a grammar school, is deemed snobbish and elitist. In South Korea I've shopped while the musak was Sibelius or Brahms symphonies. Britain is a cultrual wasteland and outside London most towns are boring and impoverished. Colchester, for example, doesnt even have a suitable venue for an orchestra let alone a ballet and both the University and Institute, which offers a respected BA in music, fail to have orchestras or windbands. The town housed the county music collection and was amazing - like the collected works of Khachaturian and Schostakovitch as well as popular sheet music and instrumental tutors but then it was reloacated in a basement store room in another town. Despite studying at university and having friends with all manner of academic backgrounds - non have any interest in classical music (nor do any speak a foreign language) and strangely, most have politically correct leanings. Is there a link between the demise of classical music and 'high' culture in the UK and PC-ism??
I write from the US and feel distressed by your comments. I hope that the nation of Holst and Vaughn Williams is in not as bleak of a place musically as you describe. I know that the British band tradition was always strong and hope it can remain so. Classical music is in a questionable position in many places though. Watching the NY Phil, one cannot help but notice that the violin section has a very high percentage of female Asian players. Nothing wrong with that, of course, unless it signals the decline of music education and appreciation in other populations and cultures.

This kid just became the co-principal trombonist in the London Symphony...
