Everyone who listens to "Dance of the Knights": -OMG I love the strings' melody, it's so badass! Lowbrass in this piece: -"Anyways, I started blasting"
as a bass trombonist in high school this tone is just gorgeous as he doesnt lose his fullness in the tone and every note is very well articulated love from sweden
Why use bass trumpet anyways when you have trombone and euphonium and a million other instruments in the same octave that sound very close in terms of sound.
Damn. If you listen to Tim Buzbee on the notes below low Bb he is playing them just a fraction of a second earlier than Mike. That is fine ass playing right there. Incredibly aware and adept.
Amo esta pieza de Prokofiev "Danza de los caballeros" de la obra Romeo y Julieta. Y éste músico toca este instrumento de manera increíble !! BRAVOOOO lo felicito !!
You know when I first saw this video, I immediately fell in love with Bass Trombone, and now I'm looking to upgrade my Trombone to Bass. Amazing work man.
@@ElloImNoodle lol, I get what you're thinking now. Yeah, those three notes right at 1:10 would sound like the beginning of the Imperial March by Williams. Except the two are in completely different keys. Imperial March is in G minor with those three notes on G. Prokofiev wrote the Dance of the Knights in E minor, with this particular part playing on the low F. As a baritone singer, I love that low F, so that is why I made the comment that I love that part and sing along, because it is right in my optimal range, and I love how it sounds.
I play bass trombone for my highschool band. Any tips tricks or practices to help with tone and how low i can get. I can get to the lowest note but i have to work it down tho
Just curious, but what model trombone is that? I haven't seen any basses with that particular bracing. It looks similar to my Courtois but they don't have axials :( Also I have to compliment both of you nailing those articulations with the timpanist. Superb!
I learned from you and I'm the only kid to ever do down octave on trombone I'm in 6th grade and this is a collage song and I learning it I can do the solo because of you if you could reply I really want to thank you for ever thing
Hi there, good job for being a motivated young trombone player! Keep up the good work, keep working on your low range and never lose your love of music!
@@mikeszabo5631 Thank you for your reply in to me I am so grateful that a good person such as yours is my friend you see I have not had that much friends so it is hard to stay happy and motivated and if you could gibe me a shout out I could make more friends from yours truly Jobe thank you for the kindness you have spreaded a fellow trombone player.
Why do so many trombonist touch the bell with their fingers on the third position? Is it really necessary if they know the rest of the positions by muscle memory?
slightly bigger than a Laskey 93D, but smaller than a 95D. So like 294mm or something. Also the rim contour is different to a Laskey so that effects how it feels as well.
Mike Szabo I’m reading this as a horn player and I’m incredibly jealous of that size. When I try to go down to my pedal C it’s so hard and I wish for something bigger than my 18mm, which is already a large horn mouthpiece
Your tone......is frickin fantastic

That 1 dislike is a bass trumpet player that can't play that low.

@@haydengrier484 good reply but I don't know about millions
Pumilate as in a lot of others.
@@haydengrier484 yep

Woah. That was amazing. Holy cow, that tone.
Thank you Kyle! 😃
0:41 Oh... there's an entire orchestra there?? 😄
You're sounding amazing, teacher! Keep posting!!
Aloha Jensen! Thanks for your comments, I’m planning a new video soon!
@@mikeszabo5631 cool!
Honestly one of the hardest French horn lines in history in there
Damn. If you listen to Tim Buzbee on the notes below low Bb he is playing them just a fraction of a second earlier than Mike. That is fine ass playing right there. Incredibly aware and adept.
Saw you posted a new video- clicked immediately! Love yours and Tim Buzbee's playing!!
We played this in our marching show last year it was so fun 😂
Id love to see more content like this! The intonation and blend from both of you guys is absolutely stunning!
Amazin!!! Trombones and tuba: they give warm and energy.
What an exquisite tone !!!
Idk why but whenever I think of bass trombone I think of this line

0:26 what a fantastic arrival point

Uhhh Trem bão!!! BRAVO!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

I could swear I head listened to this one already. Can't deny the horns also sound amazing.

This made my day. The simplicity of your production and clarity in the tone is so refreshing.
The tightest playing as usual
That’s a powerful sound, just superb
This specutacular performance is beyond description , immeasurable , unfathomable , inspirational and graceful

You are welcome

Bravissimo...mi piaci ♥️🌺👩🏭
I love the look the tuba player gives the trombonist at 0:50, “here we go bud!”
You know when I first saw this video, I immediately fell in love with Bass Trombone, and now I'm looking to upgrade my Trombone to Bass. Amazing work man.
Thanks mate, bass trombone is where it’s at!
@@mikeszabo5631 For sure!
Perfect😍👏
Amazing!!
I really enjoy your sound.
I love this so much, I mean, both of my fav instruments playing some mad pedal tones?!👌🤯⚡
I need more!!!
Exelente amigo!
Top demais 👏🏽👏🏽
excellent consistency and ensemble. That's how it's done, kids.

Top 👏👏👏👏🎼🙆♀️
Funny how each time you post the video quality gets better and better. Great playing!
DeeJay Rhodes I got a new phone last year! Haha
аплодирую!
Solid!
Hey everybody, do you know that it takes a lifetime of practice to produce the correct note from these instruments? Thank you brass players!
Thank you!
It takes a lifetime to realize that it is impossible to get the perfect note
Классс!!
Props to the tuba player for being amazing
The incomparable Tim Buzbee!
damn right!
Starwars
I'm desperately climbing the monkey gangway for freedom while listening to their specutacular performance
Keep posting videos please!’
Something is coming
Something is coming
Something unfamiliar comes
Something unpredictable is coming
Beautiful. Perfect tone and intonation. Of course, out in the hall your sound will be perfectly blended with the strings. Nice job!
Thanks!
👏👏👏
I LOVE 1:10 and sang along with ya. Just love that part.
That’s the part we’re they play start wars
@@ElloImNoodle did you mean star wars? I'm really confused, because this is from Prokofiev's Romeo and Juliet ballet.
@@danieldubei on that part the three notes are simple to the Star Wars thing and some people have done it just search up the song and starwars

Bro the strings sound like they're on the whole other side of the room 😂
They are! 😉
The ending is intense,
I absolutely adore your sound and your blend with the tubist!
Is that a Hammond MPC you're playing? Looks like my 20BXL, which is a great piece!
Eastman York is good sound!
Yes!
Bald and awesome!
Let’s go tuba
1:10 must....resist
I play bass trombone for my highschool band. Any tips tricks or practices to help with tone and how low i can get. I can get to the lowest note but i have to work it down tho
Hi Mike! How good to see and hear you! How’s life? Harry Teahan and I have missed you here in Copenhagen!
Hi Peter!! Really nice to hear from you, hope life is well for you in Copenhagen! We are doing well thanks!
Just curious, but what model trombone is that? I haven't seen any basses with that particular bracing. It looks similar to my Courtois but they don't have axials :( Also I have to compliment both of you nailing those articulations with the timpanist. Superb!
Cory Lau thanks! It’s a Bach with custom bracing and removable bell etc.
More Mike on tuba!
Thomas Smith haha!
1:10-Here comes Vader!!
1:10 is it just me or did I just hear the Imperial March in my head
What model bass is that? The tubing looks like your stringing it though tuba mouthpieces...
what symphony orchestra are you part of? you sound amazing
J12 Melbourne Symphony Orchestra
trombone and tuba players are always Peter Griffin.
I learned from you and I'm the only kid to ever do down octave on trombone I'm in 6th grade and this is a collage song and I learning it I can do the solo because of you if you could reply I really want to thank you for ever thing

Jobe thank you for the kindness you have spreaded a fellow trombone player.
No worries, take care!
Why do so many trombonist touch the bell with their fingers on the third position? Is it really necessary if they know the rest of the positions by muscle memory?
It's likely a habit from when they began to learn the positions, and is just more muscle memory.
Yep.
quarter notes
Hi mike, what mouthpiece do you use? Thanks, it sounds amazing
Miki Rueda this one is a custom Greg Black .5G .312 #2
@@mikeszabo5631 what is the cup diameter of this mouthpiece? Thanks!!!!
slightly bigger than a Laskey 93D, but smaller than a 95D. So like 294mm or something. Also the rim contour is different to a Laskey so that effects how it feels as well.

Thicc thirds 0:22
It could take a bit more 😂
lmao probs told not to blast :P
I would've loved it if it was one more octave lower.
It’s so weird hearing this without the Star Wars part at 1:10
Why?
it's weirder when people play Star Wars during a Prokofiev pieces.
was waiting for the star wars lick
Sure, tubas can play low notes, but contrabass trombones WEAPONIZE low notes
Star Wars ripped this off .
