Holy shit, the clapping on one and three pissed me off

Lol when he starts dancing he looks like elmo when he dances

We've been dumbed down to think making loud obnoxious sounds on an instrument makes you good. Basic notes, basic sounds. It doesn't matter if he's 8 and started when he was 6. Two years is a lot of time to improve on a trumpet. He still plays like he just started

the background trumpets sounded better LOL

Basically if you're a kid you're gonna get past.

Hey folks! I've been teaching brass lessons to kids for 34 years. Believe me, this kid is outstanding for 8 years old- and especially live on TV!

I fell pretty upset after watching this video because I played a Pocket trumpet at his age and did pretty good but no one really cared.

"I started playing when I was 6" what is he like 6 and half now 😂

All dislikes are actual trumpet players

THE REVEAL OF THE BLEACHED RAT TAIL GAVE ME A HEART ATTACK OMG

I heard him loose his note a couple times but hes better than most of my middle school trumpet players.

listening to this, as a current 8th grader, this sucks. I know, I know, its mean and he's young, but the adults gave him too much credit. literally 7/8's of that song was a low c. that's the first note you learn the highest note was a High C or D his embouchure was literal shit, it was like brian hoyer in the 2015-2016 AFC wild card.

Ok lets be honest, the judges put him in because he is cute, he doesnt actually sound all that good.

clapping "on tempo" makes me cringe SO HARD

Guys, don't make fun of him. He's a kid. Not to mention he's dancing LIVE with millions of people watching.

Csodálatosan szépen játszik ez a kicsike fiú! Gyönyörű szép! Köszönöm szépen!

He used to go to my primary school, and I remember we were all cheering for him in class. I remember he stabbed a girl with scissors.

He's not a prodigy. But he's good for his age.

-_____- I expected a good trumpet player, all I got was dancing and bad decisions

His cheeks are puffing out so much

Eh, I'm not hating on the kid. That being said, I play trumpet myself and I will testify that he is average for a kid his age with two years of experience. He isn't awful, but he wasn't nearly as good as the judges were saying he was. For him to be a "trumpet prodigy," I would expect something more along the lines of "Andante et Allegro" after 2-3 years, not the piece he played.

"How many times did you have to beat him to get 'em to do that?"

Best trumpet player I've ever seen!

I can't believe how many people in this comments section are hating. Jeese, this kid isn't bad at ALL. I saw nothing wrong with his performance. I mean, this kid plays better than most MIDDLE school bands. As a matter of fact, he's actually a little better than my middle schools ADVANCED band. I mean, even if he wasn't good, I still gotta give him respect. I mean, when you have a trumpet or another valved brass instrument, you have to remember to oil your valves, dry your mouthpiece, grease and empty your slides, not to hit the mouthpiece in (sometimes it gets stuck when you hit it in), never forget where your case is, and with all instruments you sometimes have to remember to practice every day and never loose your practice book. And also, like he said, he plays EIGHT instruments!! *EIGHT* !!!! I only play 2 instruments (technically I can play 4 but the other 2 I don't practice) and I'm already sometimes loosing my practice book and accidentally hitting the mouthpiece into my instrument!! I mean, I highly doubt he play all off his instruments 30 minutes a day. It's gotta be hard to play 8 instruments and sound really good at all of them (unless you've been playing for over a decade). Plus, he's probably only bad at the trumpet, yet he plays good on all his other instruments.

I play trumpet to.

Can we just take a minute to relize how small his first trumpet is.

Ive been playing Trumpet for 2 years and I can pwn this kid, then again I was 5 years older at the time

I'm a 13 year old trumpet player. And this kid is better than a lot of the trumpets at my school

Australia must have a low expectation for talent...

I mean he's cute and all but he isn't a good trumpet player. He has a long way to go. But I know he's just a kid. I have no positive response but I won't give any negative response. Tip to whoever is teaching him and his parents. Being able to play 8 instruments means less time to focus on one, its really bad. I doubt he is A good musician should know how to play 1 instrument. If you ever want to play among the pros. Unless of course you are a percussionist and such. But you know what I mean.

Guy's stop hating on this kid! He is an amazing trumpet player for his age!

Love how u dance with the music love your trumpet salsa

What a performance! LOL loved when he came closer and pointed at the judges, that was adorable!! But I hate the shirt, it looks like a clown costume

He Hasn't got to the age of embarrassment.sooooo jelly.

I'm ur 1000th sub you are awesome!

Just amazing they blow me out of the water wow!!!!

0:57 bro rizzed up a woman at 8

Judges need to stop being so sympathetic to kids. This isn't the "awww i'll let you go through just because you're a kid show".

For a little kid he's freaking awesome! He'll only get better from here.

The trumpet playing is AWESOME

How did he make it to the semi finals??

What's up with the trumpet change in the middle and all the dancing, he could've played a lot better if he didnt destroy his embochure with all that crap.

Fantastic, Bobby...

He's having fun!! More to him! He'll get better with time and practice. :-)

low standards in Australia

AND I THOUGHT I WAS TALENTED!!😭😫🎶🎼🎹🎵🎷

When I saw the thumbnail of this video, I was expecting some damn Freddie Hubbard licks, this is like. As good as my band director

Playing two trumpets at the same time is a cool trick.

This is crap playing. And to all you people saying to cut him slack because he is young and plays 8 instruments wtf? Just because he can play 8 instruments doesn't mean he is good at them. The judges shouldn't have even let him get that far.

A little kid who is average at the trumpet? WOW, Australia must have HEAPS of talent..........

wow that was amazing! :D

For all you people who are hating on this eight year old child you need a new set of ears because that was good some people in my band class can't play as good as this child did if you read this comment boby Harrison keep moving along and ignore the haters

And I know the whole "stupid" thing is aimed at me. I don't count myself stupid, and you cannot contradict me because you have never met me and do not know who I am. My statement simply implied that, despite his age, Bobby has not really "perfected" his technique. Needless to say he will probably continue playing and become a very good player, and I hope he does. But for now, I think Bobby must rely not he cute and innocent factor to make it through the competition. Don't get me wrong, he's a star for being brave enough to do it, I'm just saying that his talent hasn't developed enough yet

To everyone saying you can do better, congrats! Although I doubt any of you played for only two years and started when you were 6.

This is better than the half of trumpet in school

I haven't even been playing for a year and my new band teacher gave me first alto sax with all of the song's melodies. Some songs have alto sax solos. There are three other altos in my band.

Ok guys I need to tell you a trumpet story. So when I was in beginning band, I first started the flute. I didn't like it. Later I tried the trumpet and was OK. Before my chair tests and real things started, I accidently dropped a mouthpiece cleaner inside my trumpet. This one: ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/319Y9qPh2oL._SY300_.jpg Except like 2 inches bigger, and the part where you hold it is much thicker. I dropped this inside, and imagine what it did to my sound. I sounded flat, I sounded bad, but I thought that it was just me. I thought that the mouthpiece cleaner didn't do anything to my sound. So, I tried. I tried. I became 3rd chair almost always in band, but I still sounded ABNORMALLY flat when I played C or higher or ABNORMALLY SHARP when I played G or less. I believed I sucked. I made it into the Symphonic band of BDJH starting off as one of the top 3 players in the section. This ended badly.I was The first 2nd chair and second 4th chair. Then TUNING was a problem. I sounded bad and was out of tune, I became 6th or 7th chair, and thought I sucked. I got embarrased a lot and soon didn't care about band for like 6 months. Then, I told my friend about the thing sutck in my trumpet. Later, he told the teacher against my will, she took it out yesterday, and now I am an amazing player. Like my friend said, it's like running with a giant backpack and then taking it off. My teacher was like omfg.. cause i couldve told her this last year and made it into the honors band and became 1st chair. Now I don't know if I should quit band or not because I ALREADY chose to quit it, but now that I realized I was an amazing player the whole time I could stay. I still feel stupid. I could have been in HONORS FUCKING BAND, but I made it into symphonic band and still was pretty good. On Monday i'm going back and I need to let al my skills free.

I would do 2 trombones.

That was adorable why do people have to be so rude hes just a beginner he did pretty good for being a beginner

I know he isn't that good now, but he's 8. Most of the people hating are 15 or 16. Imagine how good he could be if he practiced for another 8 years. I've been playing for 4 and a half years now and I'm getting decent. This kid could be a legend when he reaches my age.

honestly he was good for his age. guys he is only 8. there lungs r smaller then ours so he cant reach the higher notes ye

They need Simon

Whoever disliked this... (my opinion) they are wrong! This was a very good performance!

I have been playing trumpet for 3 years and if this kid could be on one of these shows then I could win one of these shows. I can play like 2 octaves above him with much better sound quality. Like he is good for his age and the fact he has only been playing for 2 years but come on this kid a lot of special treatment.

how did he play two trumpets at the same time?

He's like 12 now

OMG Unbelievable Boy Playing Trumpet ....Adorable Boy ..

I was 9 years old and could play grade level 6 music. Now I'm in high school and I am one of the top trumpet players in my state and I have made all state band every year. I can play every brass instrument and every woodwind instrument and I can play the drums harp piano guitar.

what the hell i just saw?? :D

Not bad nor to good

The crowd clapping on 1 and 3 classic

oh my god he's really awesome

The trumpets in my band barely play that good

Making a kid clown around in that ridiculous outfit is nothing short of child abuse. Let the kid play his damn horn with dignity and earn his celebrity as the musician he is, not some damn Jon-Benet Ramsey monstrosity.

Literally all the comments are "well I could do this" or "I'm better" he's eight and for an eight year old that's talent. For an adult that would be terrible, but since he is a kid, that is talent. Haters are so ignorant😂👌🏻

NOW THAT KID HAS TALENT! I wish I play like him on my trumpet!

They're clapping on 1 and 3 make them stop

not good at trumpet at all i only heard basic notes and i wont be nice just because he is young on my first day practicing i reached those simple crappy notes

he's little chill holy shit and he's pretty good for someone that age

Anyone else wonder how he would perform this after ten years?

That's one way to ruin a child

I'd have much rather heard him play trumpet without all the dancing and the hype that were detrimental to his embouchure, accuracy, tonal quality and fluency. Let the kid play without Hollywood showboating and he'll be very good. Keep this up and he'll eventually quit in disgust.

Sem comentário... simplesmente fantástico!

My marching band teacher would be horrified by his tone and the way he "boogied"

He was good until he played two

The judges on these shows know nothing about musical instruments and what sounds good in them cause all they focus on is dancing and singing.

Omg this kid is aewsome🎺🎺🎼🎶🎵

No one was expecting Wynton Marsallis, he is 8. He is wonderful for his age. Some amazing trumpet players need to learn from him how to be an entertainer.

hes very good for 6 years old, but like, hes not that good yet

honestly, I get it. he's a kid, and it's nice that he's playing on this show. but it's actually really simple to play two trumpets. people who think that's cool have never seen it before. he's also extremely out of tune and keeps moving, so it ruins his air flow. as much as I hate to hate on this kid, I've seen much better people at his age, who have been playing for less time.

brilliant.verywell done.keep it up.MALTA

i cant believe this channel is 2009 subs, and is Australia's Got Talent 2009

I don't hunk I would even call that good for his age if he has the nerve to get on Australia's got talent

Umm is that a trumpet ??? A trumpet is way more bigger thats a mini cornet

he is one heck of a good trumpet player

For a kid he's tone quality is pretty damn good. Plus he memorized the whole thing.

Very shit, but for his age amazing.

from a trumpet player's perspective, it was eh. they acted like it was way better than it was

me as a judge:*hits button with so much Authority

すごい！！ めっちゃうまい！！ 尊敬できる！！
