Armen K well.... music gusto is subjective. No doubt they are all great. Nevertheless, it’s not a sin to make a “judgement “ as of who you liked the most. Nobody here is trying to belittle anyone, at least not me! Having said that, I liked Morrison the best. Amen!

Wrong. Morrison won

I totally agree !! Thank you.

I agree either the overall comments about all four and no need for war. Let's just enjoy this foursome.

So true, and they all show signs of having a great deal of respect for each other.

by the high note lol

Be glad your not paying per note it would be higher then the national debt!

That's just his style I guess.

AMEN!!!!

It’s his style. Plus he’s a Latin artist

@@Jamiewaltjr He is Cuban, he played in Irakere too.

@@orlyaguilar152 his range above maynard tho, he's played a triple g like wtf

I laughed so hard when Faddis looked over and saw that 😂😂

I think Faddis has more soul than Wynton.

I think Morrison has more soul than any of them

You can hear it,,sounds like German chocolate cake 😎👆

@@russellziske7385 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

@@joshfraser5828 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Hi mate what's the name of the song and album this is a masterpiece by 4 great artists I need to get it

retrorex you know... I heard all of them and I agree with you. I think Morrison was the Gold Medal in this encounter. All of them great of course!

Don't forget Phil Driscoll 😉

@@bonifaceseane6143 It’s Blues in F for most of it which is not a song technically but at the end they play Billie’s Bounce by Charlie Parker (which is a bebop blues in F).

Yeah exactly

He's more in the lineage of Louis Armstrong. The others are chasing Dizzy Gillespie.

Ah yes, Autoro Sanvol, my favourite trumpeter

Yeah right, then Arturo be like; "Hold my mouthpiece".

Let's be real now, he didn't expect that they was gonna Carry on bad like that, we know he is great.😊

Tim Crespin yes i agree. The Australian is the best by far. I’ve played on many occasions, he’s a lovely man

I'll give you props on that but the tongue control of Faddis is out of this world

@Chris F. Class, my man. That's why.

Que chille😮

exactly, Will....... more people should appreciate that point.

Sounds like you know your stuff!

Who is tommy in this ?😂

Johnny Low he’s the one that isn’t wynton, Arturo or James

Wynton out of place here. Doesn’t have the chops to hang in a duel like this-esp with these guys.

Thought that was James Morrison ?

Quite a few of you on here say that you're professional musician, etc. ; well so am I and I find it interesting that you find playing fast and high equals being the "better player" totally ignoring the fact that in my opinion and a few others on here also that stylistically it did not move me at all because this was a swing blues, not a bebop contest. It was a testosterone filled ego battle, totally ignoring the context of the music and tradition. I think some of you forgot that jazz is the only art form that originated in America and it was invented and played by African Americans; now you've got white boy, academic musicians deciding whose is the superior musician among a bunch of greats based on your own preferences. If you think Winton can't play "fast" and high then you must not be familiar with his discography. He is the only trumpet player to win grammies in two categories in the SAME YEAR. Playing high and fast licks may be fascinating to some of you soulless drones; but to me the performance has to match the style of the music, which may include some flash; but not just for the sake of SHOWING OFF.

No, brother it’s anything in Ken Burns doc (RIP jazz) and/or anything in the Berkelee Real Book. Also play Parker faster than he ever did. More notes and loud is hip. Be serious though.

It’s a trumpet duel, pure and simple. Testosterone fueled, show me what you got! Wynton didn’t have the vocabulary to keep up. Not about screaming or bebop playing-just an old fashioned throw down. The 3 of them were throwing haymakers while Wynton was being Wynton and trying to be melodic. It wasn’t that type of jam session. Blues was the foundation, but there’s never been a trumpet duel that stayed strictly in a laid back blues style. If Maynard or Venutti or a dozen other guys had been out there they would’ve been screaming and showing off their technique. How cool was it to see Arturo play without his mouthpiece? That wasn’t about artistry, that was just having fun and showing off. I think you missed the point of the whole duel.

@@jazzman34100 Anyone who doesn't know that Jazz was founded by African Americans has their head in the sand. However, not all "white boys" are academic musicians, and just because they're white does not mean that they are less talented then African Americans or that they haven't earned their greatness. They have worked hard to become what they are; ALL of them. You don't become "a great" through someone else's hard work or because you didn't invent jazz. I am sorry that you are missing the point of four greats, regardless of how they got there, playing for the enjoyment of it. Let's face it, ALL MUSICIANS have a bit of testosterone in them; when the music takes us away, it becomes a battle against self.

@@marknekoba6561 You sound like one of my junior high music students or better yet a rank amateur. This wasn't a freakin' duel.

HOLY SHIT HE DOES LMAO

yea. So musical...

@@freeeeeeedy What exactly wasn't musical about it?

@capitalismforme Yes, it was. Don't have a good ear, do you?

Hahaha dude blocked me. Definitely makes it look like he's telling the truth about being a session musician, doesn't it?

Why did I laugh so hard at this comment?

Sounds like arpeggio that comes from whole-tone scale, some augmented stuff.

Yeah, sounds like whole tone arpeggios

Colin Berry I think the other three were going for hard bop

Agree, this is a bunch of the best masters of the trumpet letting their hair down and having a lot of fun. There is a lot of mutual respect between these guys too. Each one, took their sections to different places tailored by their styles and experience. What a wonderful piece of jazz and a stellar performance by some the the worlds greatest players.

djfly1212-I just got here and saw your comment right off, and I was surprised. I live in my parent's basement. Well, it's just my mom's now, actually. My Dad died a couple of years ago, so she lives alone, except that I live in the basement apartment. I pay $400.00 a month in rent though, so I'm technically a tenant, but it's still my mother's house, and I still feel like a loser to live here even though it's a great place to live; I'm just being divorced after I yelled at my wife and grabbed her phone out of her hand and threw it across the room. I was freaked out and upset because I was very delusional and hearing voices that people were about to die that night, and I was upset that she didn't believe me. I went to jail for a couple days, and then I began hearing voices telling me to go back to Utah, so right away I got on a bus and my mother picked me up in Salt Lake City and took me back home. Shortly after that I was hospitalized and committed and drugged, and now I'm writing the single most frightening book of all time. Anyway, I'm putting a book together, and I was taking a break and my friend sent me a text with a link to this video, and after reading your comment, I wanted you to know that I'm just writing a book about the end of the world that's gonna be the beginning of a terrible life for me, and my death as well, as I will be executed by my brothers and sisters and aunt in a few years for my supposed acts that they will believe that I committed before I was born. So I write about the Laws of God and the end of the world in a basement apartment, and I used to play in highschool and college and I thought I would take a break and listen to some jazz, and it's all good.

MANY STYLES AND APPROACHES HEARD HERE IN JAZZ, BLUES, AND R/B. each of these are masters of the techniques and the genres. Anybody saying different just hasn't played horn and studied enough. Just sayin'.

Word

"Wynton does this... but Faddis did that.. but Arturo played so much faster!... but Morrison really got the lyrical nature of the blues..." B.S. No musician goes up on stage thinking that. You're spot on. Why can't we just enjoy 18 minutes of the same blues chords played four unique ways, and LEARN. They had fun, we should too.

"Both are pure improvisation! Thank you very much for sharing your feelings, thoughts."

Joseph Noise I habitually do the same in a way, I try to transcribe the tenor players last lick, as I'm coming in lol

Call and response. That's one of the foundations of this music. Arturo was actually listening to Wynton and playing something that was related. It certainly was not (at least it seemed like it wasn't) coincidence. You can chose to build on what the person before you contributed, or you can make your own statement. The music is fun like that. Good observation.

It happens again between Arturo and Morrison at 10:36. Arturo plays this bluesy half valve thing at the end of his turn, and then Morrison repeats it exactly the way that Arturo played it. It's a way of saying, "I hear that...yeah man!" Think about regular conversation with your friends. Don't you do this kind of thing? Call and response...that's the traditional way of playing - you have to listen to what's happening around you and respond. It's fun!

holygroove2 I do

YOU ARE RIGHT!!! PLEASE READ "WYNTON IS THE GREATEST!!!" commentariesonthetimes.me/2016/08/02/wynton-is-the-greatest/

Al Hirt could double and triple tongue with perfect staccato and beautiful tone. He will always be in a class by himself, not to belittle anybody else.

@@richardwalker9826 Point well taken but not sure about class all by himself.

I'm so glad you enjoyed it..! From trumpet masters you can only expect wonders like these.

Absolutely!

Joy Faith You are wrong, Wynton have better control of the trumpet than all of them.

But not than Arturo.

I JUST FIND AUTURO ANNOYING!!! I AM ENTITLED TO MY OPINION!!!

And it sounds so GOOD too!
