There's literally a video out there where there's a "live" recording of a full band playing a piece, but it's basically all him.

lol ikr

There’s always that guy who does twice the work of the rest of the group combined.

@@TheMinecraftACMan then he does 3 times for a little bit then goes back to 2 times

@@aklnoyz 5 Times the work later he also plays the piano and even later the trumpet and after that he plays both the trumpet and the trombone at the same time

I am that drummer in the group project lol

Two trombones you mean.

3*

Hah lol yeah

Sounds like that could be a great original song

eiutrumpeter very very hard to do, but it's by having the lips buzz independently giving two then his voice, the third.

@@fardpig4269 id have thought it was done by humming two notes at once while playing the trombone note. with some practice its possible to sing two notes at the same time so i thought it could be that

Hazy I’m not a trombone expert, but does that mean it might be possible to play 4 notes?

I saw him at the Sydney Town Hall playing bee bop on a tuba and with one hand and jazz piano with the other simultaneously. He professionally also plays sax, cornet & trumpet, flugelhorn, trombone, clarinet, euphonium and double bass, and when I say play, I mean at a world class level. He also has a great understanding of musical history, which he often shares during his performances. In fact, he can, if he wishes, place the title Professor before his name, because he had taught for many years as adjunct professor at an Australian university.

@@ThomasBond007 it was amazing. He taught us some really good things. If you ever get chance to play with him, would definitely recommend. He is amazing

@@jackmiller8635 that is amazing. Enjoy. Are you doing a workshop first? If so I would suggest taking a not pad and taking lots of notes. there will definently be things that stick. Good luck

I play the trumpet, and once you get into higher registers, you end up changing notes mainly with your embouchure, only fiddling with the first valve. In the close up, you can see Morrison pressing down the trigger. Combine (maybe) the higher range, the trigger, and "bending" the notes to make them sharper and flatter, you get some crazy skills. Then again, I could just be talking out my ass. This man clearly has more talent than I'm going to get with my casual attitude, and put on a great show.

Your band instructor doesn't know anything about trombones then. You use lip trills, like really fast lip slurs, to trill. It's a pretty advanced technique, so if you're a beginner I understand why your band instructor didn't explain them, but saying that trombones can't play trills is just plain wrong.

Also he's playing the trombone one handed by using his F trigger to play 6 position alts, so in higher registers you can almost play a full chromatic scale.

@@trombonedude5312 I bet his instructor didn't say "trombone can't play trills", he probably said "you can't play trills on trombone"

​@@FranzFartinand Even so, that's not true. Anyone can play a trill on trombone, it just takes *a lot* of practice.

I play guitar and can fake everything I don't have to blow into

@@diceandcards8272 a real disciple of the samuraiguitarist, I see

All brass instruments are esentially the same, meaning that if you can play one well you can play all of them fine.

@@ldbonq They have similar mouthpieces, sure, but the trombone is a slide instruments and has different techniques for moving through the range. Same with French Horn, euphonium, etc.

@@ldbonq The piano is slightly different though.

Thanksssss

thank you sooooo much

That's how a trumpet should be played: not at all

@@rcb5432 lol

@@GG-yg2ze harsh but true

The F trigger adds a great deal of flexibility to the amount of notes available in one position

I said WTF so many times

He's got a trigger trombone which you can use instead of the slide for most notes high up in the register whilst staying in first position - you'll see he triggers it with his thumb

You can play an entire Bb scale in first position, you can also play “The Lion Sleeps Tonight” completely in first position. (At least the part everyone knows)

In the higher register the overtones are close enough to one another that by using the trigger you can play entire scales in 1st position.. really useful if you need to turn pages or something

I get to meet him next year for a jazz festival in Las Cruces. Needless to say. I'm exited.

@@DarthKross how was it?

Dude I was there! He blew me away at the night show with the all-star big band, it was incredible! Best live music experience ever!

Nobody cares what you have to say when your kind is genociding white folks in SA

hes not a trombonist lol, his main instrument is trumpet...

I personally like to call myself a tromboner

I have played piano since 4, trumpet and percussion in grade school to high school, with degree in jazz piano from one of the finest music/jazz programs in the US...yet James Morrison is damn better than me on piano.

Well c’mon man, you’re comparing yourself to James Morrison. That’s like saying that Usain Bolt is faster than you so you shouldn’t call yourself a sprinter

You can call yourself a pianist. You just can't call yourself James Morrison. :) Which is fine; last I checked, most people aren't James Morrison.

Christopher Emerson the trigger helps with that a great deal. Takes a LOT of practice to get it that clean though.

just like that?

He's doing a technique called multiphonics where you play one note while singing/humming another higher note.

In my experience, the number of sounds that can be created this way is two. And the collection of notes are octaves or 5ths, not 3 tones and not any tones.

You can get two notes with a double buzz, and then sing the third one. Sometimes when my chops are really blown I get the second buzzed note unintentionally, but I haven't figured out how to do it when my lips are fresh.

justcarcrazy depending on the played notes and vowel, it's possible to get different overtones to sound. you can also sing more than 1 note

he's double buzzing two of them, and singing the other.

I mean yeah fair, but also here's a taste of how well he plays the sax himself... kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oNyqgq51prXNcoU.html Gonna guess you'd cheerfully go bald to be able to play sax the way James Morrison plays sax, even though trumpet and trombone are his main instruments.

Hans Ehrlinger has some competition.

That's the random white dude that sometimes appears in his videos

Its not dunkey, its leela's husband

thats exactly what i thought when i saw him lmaooo

Jazz and Spaghetti BAYBEEEE

playing the trumpet, obviously

Check out Bill Prince. Plays almost all the horns, and damn well too!

I completely agree! I know he's a great player but there was something about his music I didn't like, and this perfectly sums it up.

A bit late answer: This video is more about technics than music, but go to any other piece by him, he's an incredible musician

That’s literally every comment.

Damn shawty over here tryna fish for some free clout

Cuz he played THREE NOTES on a TROMBONE

If you think this was good, watch him play this with Ray Brown!

well a trigger a trombone is actually slightly harder to play high notes on as it has a larger bore but the trigger allows him to play more notes in between and also hes so good that high notes arent a problem XD

Ethan Geye as a ling ling myself, I approve this comment

I fucking love that "true ling ling level" lmao

I'm pretty sure Ling Ling can play more than that.
