MUSSORGSKY Pictures at an Exhibition Promenade Trumpet Excerpt “THANK YOU, NEXT! THURSDAYS” Back in June, I started to prepare to return to regular work weeks with the San Diego Symphony. Having never taken over a year off from performing with an orchestra before, I was slightly unsure as to how to proceed. The hundreds of etudes I’d recorded had certainly kept me in shape, but I knew these wer...

Verry smoooooooooooth ❤❤
Yesssssss. Thanks for taking the time to listen and comment!
I love how you can communicate rhythmically on the long notes. I can hear the orchestra underneath. I need to get better at that! Sounds great!
All about the internal rhythm! Thanks for taking a listen and commenting!
Very good 👍👍👍👍
Thanks for taking a listen and commenting - I appreciate it!
How beautiful. You just made my night.
Thank you. I appreciate you taking the time to listen and comment!
The most in tune trumpet player there is
@@jonahlevy674 Ha! Thank, Jonah!
Beautiful tone❤❤❤
Thank you. I appreciate you taking the time to listen and comment!
Is that a silent brass? I used that for a while. The "Shhmute," however, permits a little more airflow. Thanks for the video!
This is a Yamaha Silent Brass. Thanks for taking the time to listen and comment!
I absolutely love the fast interpretation of this piece!! Some maestros take it wayyyy to sloooowwwwwwww for my taste.
Agreeeeeed!! Thanks for taking a listen and commenting!
Wonderful! I get inspiration from hearing other instruments play these etudes. Thank you for posting this.
Thank you for taking the time to listen and comment. I appreciate it!
This is great, Chris!
Thank you, Rob. I appreciate you listening and commenting!
I always thought it was supposed to have slurs through out
Thanks for taking a listen. I appreciate you taking the time to comment!
Amazing
Thank you for taking the time to listen and comment!
Hi Chris, could you do a review of the studiobricks? It would be really cool to hear sound in the booth vs sound in the room.
The fronts of the notes are my MODEL for sound!
Thank you for taking a listen and commenting! I appreciate it
Super!🎉
Thank you, Wellington. I appreciate you taking the time to listen and comment!
Thanks for this other precious and very useful video., my friend.
Thanks, Éric! I appreciate you taking the time to comment!
Nice work. Especially with the cornet. How do you make that choice, a whim, or wanting a darker lyrical rounder tone…?
Thank for taking a listen and commenting - I appreciate it! As far as the cornet goes - the etudes were written for “cornet” - AND I was needing to play different instruments during the pandemic, as opposed to only playing a C trumpet all the time to stay in shape.
Do you happen to have a recording of Small #17 by chance? Thank you 🙏
Sorry - it doesn’t appear that I recorded that one. Thanks for taking a listen and commenting!
Sounds great Chris!
Thanks, Erik! I appreciate you taking the time to listen and comment!
Sounds great, man. I’m bummed that you and I never met. I was the Trumpet GA at WMU right after you.
@@tfreshproductions6125 - Thanks for taking a listen and commenting! I hope we can meet in person sometime!
Yep, right up my alley.
I appreciate you taking a listen and commenting!
I love how Type A this guy is and the recording of his various practice videos (the boring parts) is super nice. It's nice to hear how some of these exercises are actually supposed to be played
Thanks for taking the time to watch this video and comment - I appreciate it!
So that's how we're supposed to do it...THANKS!!!
Ha! Well - this would be ONE way it could be played. Thanks for taking a listen, Glenn - I appreciate it!
You're hired!!! fabulous!
LOL! Thanks, Trent!
This is so so so beautiful! Thanks for making this video, my friend.
Thank you for taking the time to listen and comment, Éric - I appreciate it!
@@ChristopherSmithTrumpet My pleasure!
I like the Gen 1 the most it has personality. If I could make a Frankenstein gen 1 body YS bell.
Agreed! Thanks for taking a listen and commenting - I appreciate it!
Very nicely done, Christopher. Not easy to put all that together and stay so musical with it!
@@ChrisAucoin1401 - Thank you for taking a listen and commenting. I appreciate it!
well thats pretty easy 😯
Thanks for taking a listen, John. I appreciate you taking the time to comment!
@@ChristopherSmithTrumpet thank you ! did Brahms really write these ? i am surprised i do not think of Brahms as a composer much concerned with the trumpet..

Thanks for taking a listen and commenting!
This is coming up on an audition. When it comes to etudes and solos like these, do you recommend staying in time as more of a focus than playing with more rubato? I'm wondering because your rendition seems to be less rhythmically free than other versions I hear, you sound great, btw! I hope this question makes sense.
My preference is to stick to what’s on the page. I don’t know where all this extreme rubato came from - but it’s really annoying to listen to. LOL Thanks for taking a listen!
@@ChristopherSmithTrumpet haha, thank you!
The comments are really funny. Only bikers know that 4-wheelers drive on peripheral vision during traffic even if they’re staring right at it… the mind goes somewhere else, and the perception of depth to a car driver observing a single-taillighted vehicle is extremely skewed which is dangerous in human autopilot mode, which is why it’s genuinely safer to make yourself the primary traffic observer at all times by putting the risk of flawed decision making in FRONT of your precious life instead of behind it.
Sounds great!
Thanks for taking a listen and commenting - I appreciate it!
Great sound!!!! Amazing! Your brick studio is a bright idea. Cheers, my friend.
Thanks for taking a listen!
Very nice 😄😁👏👏👏
Thanks for taking a listen and commenting!
I'd hire this guy to play in my apartment block 3:00 am
Sounds good to me! Thanks for taking a listen and commenting!

Get it done!! And have fun working on this!

I appreciate the kind words. Thank you for taking a listen and commenting!
Nice Christopher, I´m learning the trumpet with your video.
Thank you for taking a listen and following along - I appreciate it!

Sounds awesome! Very dreamy!
Thanks for taking a listen, Joey!
Well done like always ! Thanks for sharing. How do you get a nice audio recording like that with only your cell phone?
Thanks for taking a listen. I appreciate it! Just luck with the cellphone this time!
Thank you so much for all your precious and beautiful videos, Chris. I also find them very helpful! Enjoy your day.
Thank you, Éric! I appreciate your kind words!
@@ChristopherSmithTrumpet My pleasure!!!!
Very nice. Are there any other clips of this?
Thank you for taking a listen, Ken. I appreciate it!

beautiful playing!
Thank you! I appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment!
I like your videos, I want to talk with you on a important topic. But I can't find any of your contact information.
Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment!
Practicing this right now. The intervals near the end are a bear and the breathing is so difficult. I like your solution to the problem😁
Thanks for taking a listen and commenting - I appreciate it!
This is bad. Very bad. You'll be master of the universe until the second you're not. Doesn't take much. Last time I checked,, trumpet playing is very physical. Riding is dangerous enough without splitting lanes. Seems like the quick way to end playing career. Please heed this advice from someone with several hundred thousands of miles under his butt, who still practices motorcycle cop style drills religiously. THIS. IS. BAD, even if legal in Ca. You'll ride longer if you not only ride safe, but ride smart.
Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts, Tim!
Look at all the people you put your future health into their control - one bang is all it takes to have a future of incredible pain. I'm amazed how people will take zero responsibility if something does happen - that trust back-fires and it comes down to - why would you ever give up control to all those random vehicles.
Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment!
