Somehow, I was subscribed, and then when I saw your comment and I was like "yeah, they deserve more!" and I looked and realized I wasn't subscribed anymore..... Don't worry! I fixed it!
Thanks for being such an amazing trumpet inspiration, Mr. Dowdeswell. I got a callback from the Blue Knights earlier this month and look forward to attending the round two audition weekend after next -- I can attribute alot of what propels me to practice as hard as I do to recently discovering your channel listening to you tear into the upper register like it's nothing. Thanks again!
That's super cool. One of the former members of my high school band got contracted by the Blue Knights this year on mellophone. I was invited to the round two audition for the Blue Stars, and I can definitely say that Louis was a huge part of that for me as well.
Ben Polk I feel the same way. Louis shows that you can really play nice music with the occasional pretty screams XD. Bring excepted in DCI is so cool. I want to be in the cavaliers or Carolina Crown
Band sounded great as usual! When Atila first started singing, though, I was like "Who is this guy they brought in?" and I wasn't a big fan, but as the song went on I started to really like his voice and expression, even to the point that even during the awesome band interlude near the end I was like "bring Atila back in!" haha
Louis Dowdeswell Music Thanks man! I'm a trumpet player myself, I am a freshman studying with Justin Emerich at Michigan State University. Your videos rock dude!
Hi Louis! Gosh I love your stuff! What an amazing player you are! everything looks so effortless. I'm so jealous of your ability to play those high notes! I'm a trumpet player in Reno, Nevada, USA, and have a couple of friends that have bought a couple of your big band charts for a band we play in. They are so much fun! One question for you - why don't you use key signatures in your charts?
Great Job, You should make an entire album with Christmas music. I love to see real brass and woodwinds and much less electronic simulations of brass and woodwinds.
Louis Dowdeswell Music Hey man I love all of your music and arrangements you're just great man. I'm an aspiring trumpet player and I wanted to know what mouthpiece are you using and what things I can do and practice to get range like yours.
Beautiful piece of music. But if you don't mind me asking, what type of Trumpet do you use? I'm thinking of buying a new one but I'm not entirely sure. I'm thinking a Silver Flare
A beautiful job on a difficult tune. You guys and gals definitely made it happen! This cold northern Minnesota night suddenly became much warmer!! Thank you so very much!!!
Beautiful arrangement. I played trumpet for 10 years then put it down. 10 years later I've been wanting to get back at it. Thanks for the inspiration and motivation to play again!
That shout chorus with the brass in derby hats was absolutely fantastic. Would have never though that could work. And the rest of the arrangement, performance, and production is top-notch!
This channel is criminally undersubbed. Some of the best music I've heard in ages!
Ryan Padua 100% true, they deserve way more subs.

Fact Check: TRUE
Agreed!
still true to this day

Riley presley Good luck with your audition! I'm still waiting for my SCVC results.
Riley presley Awesome man! I'm still high school, but I really want to be in some DCI band. Good luck with your auditions!

This is my favorite christmas time song and obviously I need the lead sheet.
edit: purchased.
The chord at 4:55 makes me question life
Oh yeah! xD
is anybody watching this ON Christmas?
Yes
Yes

Ahhhh what if they had gotten Michael Buble lol it would've been awesome even though it already is awesome!!!
2 years later and I’m still listening to this absolute banger
Shoutout to the woodwind guys. He has a beautiful sound on all of them!!!
My gosh my insides exploded at that trumpet solo
Very cool. Love those arrangements that transcend what you are used to hearing and give a fresh listen to an old standard.
Thanks for another great video Louis!
Love the hat, Callum!
Merry Christmas!
Make a video with a Arturo bro !
Where do I purchase the audio for this tune? All these links bring me to NOT this song. SOMEONE HELP
Louis make an Instagram account, get some publicity for this for crying out loud! You deserve like 100 times the views you get per video
I haven't been subbed because I watch every one of your videos when they come in my recommended. I just subbed anyway!
I wish I could buy their music on Google play. I feel like that's how I could contribute.
Keep checking the video, should be available in the next few days!

NO crotch grabbing, smoke, lights flashing and scantily clad dancers either, Just REAL TALENT not mediocrity covered by glitz and tricks.
That bass clarinet 😍
The real question is the audio they are using and the video they are using the same....

Is Maddie your sister?
Yes
I thought it was your wife
"it"
I just watched your performance with Michael buble on tv
THAT....izz the dogs bollocks stud....well done.

Is this the only video where we here his voice
Hey what is the trumpet that you use in all of your videos. Great performance by the way.
TheSuperhulk 3 He plays on a Bach Strad I believe

A beautiful job on a difficult tune. You guys and gals definitely made it happen! This cold northern Minnesota night suddenly became much warmer!! Thank you so very much!!!

Amazing video as always! Dp the musicians play in the same music Hall during recording?
Jut fantastic... Rhythm changes to all of the solos along with the percussion and vocals just make this piece outstanding. Bravo!!!
Estimado Luis,
Siempre, al ver tus videos me alegro.
Feliz Navidad (lleno de paz y de música) a todos.

Beautiful arrangement. I played trumpet for 10 years then put it down. 10 years later I've been wanting to get back at it. Thanks for the inspiration and motivation to play again!
If possible could you please make a tutorial on how to play high notes and how the play them loud and clear. Also on how to improve the embouchure.
That shout chorus with the brass in derby hats was absolutely fantastic. Would have never though that could work. And the rest of the arrangement, performance, and production is top-notch!
Amazing music!! And The link for the sheet music does not work
Louis please do Incredibles next. My high school band needs inspiration
nice arrangement.
whens the next vid
Thank you so much.
In these strange times is very appreciate something like that!
Your going to go far Louis.
What is the name of the 4 valved trumpet you played?
piccolo trumpet
I love your music, Louis and Callum. What's coming next?
Beautiful arrangement, great playing (as always), and nicely done video!
Simon is a god
I like louis.
Louis, Callum and band...simply amazing!! The best group of players on the planet!!
Great work as always!
Brilliantly spectacular, as always!!!
You have a sister? This may have been something obvious but I never knew.
Nice!
Fabulous groove, and that voice is amazing!!! Love this Louis.
Do the incredible switch Wayne Bergeron!!!!
You know what Lous Dowdeswell and the band can play. I love Louis.
Ahh the way you make such a beautiful sound on the trumpet makes me want to pick it up! @.@
Beautiful
Another uupload from chickentiko! classic
This is Amazing!
Anytime I see him play high notes, he has, what looks like, despair in his eyes
amazing christmas atmosphere:) Good job:)
good vid
They have Christmas in Europe?
Sadly, yes.
Callum Au smh I thought Christmas was an American thing
Richard Casillas It's a christian thing...
Richard Casillas Haven't you ever watched the Christmas Carol movie?
What I meant was I thought it was only LEGAL in America
Yo great job! What mouthpiece do you use?
what kind of trumpet do you start playing on? the one with 4 valves?
That's a piccolo trumpet
thanks
im interested in how the hell do you play so high and look like its just like your lower range
What mouthpiece do you use???
I believe he uses the GR Wayne Bergeron Studio mouthpiece. I use as well and is very comfortable and has a great commercial sound.
More Christmas music, please... My heart hurts without it
#ChickenTiko is probably the best band that I have heard.
J’adore
Best big band....hands down
Jim
Bari sax
You should do a behind the scenes for one of these.
Very nice! But what trumpet is that brand and model?
I believe he uses a Bach 43G* and the GR Wayne Bergeron mouthpieces. I don't know about the picc.
Looks like a Bach picc and a schilke mouthpiece!
muito, mas muito top mesmo!!! Parabéns pelo seu trabalho!
beautiful arrangement! keep up the good work!
