his tone is amazing

I've been searching for a mellow, beautiful rendition of this song on trumpet. I am really liking this take on it... no big over-the-top flourishments, no over-dramatization of the melody. He did a great job on his tone quality and adding vibrato when called for. Some songs should be left alone and done as they were written. This is a beautiful song and he performed it as I myself would like to... someday. Thanks, brattom, for posting it.

I like the grace with which the pianist moves her fingers

Excellent tone throughout the entire song. Supports every note properly. #pro

I never met Fred Mills, nor heard him play live. But Romm's phenomenal tribute still brought me to the brink of tears for the loss of this incredible man.

I am fortunate enough to hear the original lineup of the Canadian Brass live several times in the 1980s and 1990s. Their blend of superb musicianship, artistry and presentation was unique and introduced many into the classical music world.

I studied with Mr. Romm. He has a really beautiful musical voice

This is the most beautiful version of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" that I have ever heard. The only other trumpeter that could have matched the beauty of this performance was Fred Mills. Lovely!

Absolutely amazing, fantastic tone quality.

This brought a tear to my eye, absolutely beautiful. 😓

Wow simply beautiful...love it

Gorgeous sound! Bravo!

I remember Ron and Fred doing a duet to "Someone to Watch Over Me" at ITG 04. It was the first time I'd ever heard Ron solo without the rest of the Canadian Brass, and it just floored me. He will always be remembered for playing with the Canadian Brass, but he has one of the most magnificent tones that I've ever heard and he probably doesn't get enough recognition for his solo abilities.

What a wonderful tribute!

This is so beautiful. I have goosebumps just listening. It's so moving.

Amazing! Almost as heartwarming and heartbreaking as when Garland sang her signature song but not quite. This song always brings me to tears

you made me cry while listen to this beautiful music

THE BEST VERSION EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you, Prof... a beautiful rendition of a favourite piece ... and I'll bet there wasn't a dry eye in the house.

Pure sound of angel voice

What a gorgeous sound!❤️

Mind = blown. Amazing. Inspiring. Insane. Loved it!

Beautiful,thk you.

Just wonderful !

Que HERMOSOOOO maestro Ronald Romm.....sin palabras.... me llegó al alma. Que maestro es usted ,un placer poder escucharle..gracias por todo lo que nos ha dado.......saludos desde PERÚ..

Thank you

Beautiful and sad

Beautiful

love it... my niece plays piano and I play trumpet... we'd like to play this for our families... anybody have the arrangement (piano primarily) since the trumpet is pretty straight forward - albiet beautifully played.

that was really good.

So, doesn't the beginning sound like Schubert's Impromptu no. 3 to anyone else?

Light years better than the screechers. This man knows how to play musically; lyrically and sweet, elegaic.

TANK YOU FOR EXST ROMM

His tone is so so sexy

If I could get the sheet music I’d put this on as part of my recital in the future.

super

Good

😢😊

My very good friend and I would like to duet for our senior showcase. After high school, we will be attending colleges in different states, so performing a duet together will be extremely special. We were wondering if you could respond with a link or something to that nature where we may be able to purchase this arrangement? This is the best arrangement we've heard, and it would be magical if we could play it together. Thank you.

👌

He starts playing at 00:38

@yos313 you ever find out who arranged?... and if sheet music is available?

Yeah I agree with the general feeling here ... it's a mature 'not about me but about the song' rendition ... better than Vizzutti in my opinion because he shows so much taste.

How come she plays Schubert's impromptu as an accompaniment ?

Any one know who arranged this and where to get it?

wow...Ron and Fred Mills are originals from Canadian Brass. I think the only original Canadian Brass member left is Chuck the tuba player

I am doing this at a concert and I'm shitting myself omg help

I swear that piano intro sounds just like a Schubert piece I've heard before 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

wow, that ill i can say

@madisonalm sounds like original arrangement

R.I.P. Mr. Romm :(

Very beautiful, but I find the quote from Schubert's 'Ave Maria' in the piano part a bit distracting. Ronald Romm's sound is unbelievably rich.

Is that his wife playing the piano?

Anyone know who arranged this? Why can't people give credit to arrangers, that's so unprofessional!
