2:01 Jesus that dub c is insane

[@closersdci]

9:31 when i first heard this solo during the southern US portion of the tour i went absolutely ballistic, you killed it 🔥🔥

[@amduck4266]

I love that double c dude! 2:00 I wish my range was that good

[@Davis.smith.weightlifting]

Great job man. Love the sizzle on your extensions
-2017 lead

[@diegoc.8555]

I'm working hard to expand my range because I want to be lead one day for BD, maybe a second though until then. Right now I can only get a clean up to a D and almost always E. E and below is fairly clean MOST of the time but literally just feels like it cuts off at F except for very select days. I love watching all these lead cams to see what I should strive for.

[@JustinDeee]

Wow Jeriel!!! This is amazing!!
Seriously, congrats on your season, thank you for sharing.

[@JerielVazquez]

Thanks so much! I’ll see you soon bro! 🙌

[@jack5exe312]

I have a friend who's taught from the same trumpet teacher as you, and he told me about how you've progressed and it's been an inspiration to me, especially after watching this. keep it up 💪

[@diegoc.8555]

I’ll be auditioning once again this year and hope to be a lead, some day if not this next year so I’m really excited! Practicing hard already!

[@timthatguitarboiiiiiiiiii3742]

I may be a tuba player but i respect how hard yall work and i love watching y'all's shows maybe on day i can join the BD's

Thank you!!

LETS GOOO ❤❤

[@UbuntuBanksie]

this was fire. I don't know if the mouthpiece switch was what made the difference but you were absolutely nuts this year

[@JerielVazquez]

Maybe haha. I switched to a GR studio this year instead of using the classic bobby shew marcinkiewicz.

[@bysuke-]

@@JerielVazquezHow was it marching a GR? I’m thinking of marching with my wayne GR but idk if that’s a good idea

[@JerielVazquez]

@@bysuke-It’s probably a good idea if you’re going for those loud sizzlin notes. If you wanna sound really smooth and nice tho, I’d go for a deeper cup. 🤙

[@itsCurzy]

@@bysuke- I marched a Wayne GR this year and it was pretty solid for marching, it did the job whenever I needed to blend or cut through the ensemble. The only issues I had over the summer was when it would get humid and I would get sweaty so the mouthpiece would slip off my face because of the flat rim but that's also inevitable 😅

[@SillyBHSDude]

That scream on the jojos bizarre adventure is crazy

[@Sue20022010]

Wow!

[@cmeron9039]

I wish i could just zoom out a tiny bit haha

[@NoirAurora-c6e]

Jeriel what trumpet do you use outside of BD bc I’m lookin for a different Bach strad bc mine is not my type and I currently use a LR180S43 and I also use a LR190S43B but my school owns it

[@JerielVazquez]

The trumpet I used in this video was a Bach/Conn Selmer Hybrid. Reverse lead pipes can be nice for an easier blow, but I suggest finding a trumpet with a smaller bore size if you’re trying to play lead. Overall, the bach trumpets are great all-around. Hope this helps! Thanks for watching! :)

[@user-qj8ny1ll6m]

Plz tell me that your staying for another year

[@whydoialmosthave500subs4]

Did nano do a headcam?

[@Gregnant]

What horns did they have you guys playing on, sounded killer by the way

[@JerielVazquez]

We played on bach strad/conn selmer hybrids. They were pretty nice to play on!

[@turkishdelight6032]

@@JerielVazquezWhat happened with the System Blue(s)?

[@ethansmith1791]

@@turkishdelight6032 System Blue basically went under after COVID. You can still buy the mouthpieces from Mouthpiece Express and they still sell drumsticks and other percussion stuff (heads maybe) but I think the marching horns are done for

[@azxtnt]

@@ethansmith1791we use system blue at my high school for baritones and tubas , they have some weird quirks that make them not super fun to play on

[@slickvibing]

I really wanted to meet you

[@slickvibing]

great cam tho im sad this was your last year
