“sim.” is Italian for “I gave up putting in the slurs”
Musicians humor. God I love it.
He could also put sempre legato instead of simile lol
@@ronelel2109 simile works too!
@@raffaeleprosser6310 hold on i need to search it up
Edit: Yeah, it definitely works
There's no slurs in the carnival of venice XD It's all tongued on trumpet and marked in the Arban as so XD It's a pain to play it at that speed as well all tongued but Sergei does it completely effortlessly :)
Someone who does not play the trumpet may not understand how difficult it is to jump from high notes to low notes like that. Believe me, it takes a lot of skill to do it this flawlessly.
agree! I used to play trumpet and even playing just the high notes was hard but alternating between high and low in such a speed is incredible.
I used to play trombone and baritone
Truth, that's why there was always 1st to 3rd trumpets playing different notes... At least when I used to play.
i don't like jumping
it is possible tho practice alone can make it sound good
Sergei Nakariakov is such an inspiration to me, he inspired me to quit classical trumpet
Truly incredible!
Lmao
had us in the first half ngl
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Omicron what the fuck are you doing here
Composer is like : "LOL, he actually played this"
He did get all of it right
Many classical composers secretly hate musicians and want them to suffer.

@@grinne2975 maybe you should look up for it. You'll understand.
@@superking208 lmao also fits
The joy and lightness when playing literally jumps out of his face!
figuratively
this is so hard to do, I doubt he can do anything but concentrate… imagine using your voice and alternating between low chest voice and head voice/falsetto as fast as in this. Now imagine doing that with your lips on a trumpet whilst getting all the fingerings right…
@@GeorgeCollier Definitely, hats off to his performance. 🙌 As a jazz drummer, I can really understand his facial expression. 😂
You are the king of top comments
@@Saxologic You speak my language, Nathan! 😁😉
One can’t follow how fast his playing, outstanding!
i can
saw him play this live like last year, best thing experience of my life tbh, also got to talk to him because he came to our brass rehearsal, and it was just incredible. he is a phenomenal trumpet player, truly an icon!!
And you got to have dinner with him and meet his parents and have a slumber party with his children and he even wrote you into his will. Thanks for sharing!

@@lukechallies7148 yeah and she only has one leg. Her name is Eileen.
As a brass player, idk how that's possible. Like triple tonguing that fast is crazy but the partials are even crazier
Edit: nevermind it's slurs, I wasn't paying attention but still just as impressive
Years of practice. This piece becomes a loooot less difficult when you play it every day for even just three months.
Enzo Lescure does it really? Haha I had some friends in school that could do the Clarke version but I don’t think I’ve ever heard any non-pro live that could do the Arban one with the octave jumps with any clarity.
That's not the triple-tonguing portion of the solo actually, this section is mostly slurred making it much easier to play
@@stephenbeck7222 Performed this whole solo by memory in high school and got distinguished soloist (Texas). Just takes practice
Perhaps he rolls his tongue in combination with the triple tonguing?
Sergei is insane. One tiny mistake; the first A in the arpeggiated figure in bar 19 is an A above the staff, not below.
Great transcription, love your content.
I think you mean Bar 19, but good catch
@@marimbaguy715 oops, changed it
You guys caught any of that?
@@rojoscostanada8685 right 😭
I used the actual sheet music as a baseline and changed the notes where necessary to fit the performance, looks like I missed that!
I like how at the end when hes done, he has the most unimpressed expresion on his face. Like saying, yup just another day at the office. Legend
more like he's embarrassed that he can't play fast enough to keep up with the recording
Such a beautiful arrangement at the end. Much more resolving, dramatical and of course impactful!
I had an instructor in highschool that played this on every brass instrument we had in the room. Wasn’t super clean but the fact that he could switch from tuba to trumpet in an instant was super impressive
Even Trombone?
Now that's impressive.

Someone give this guy a medal. And a mechanical breather.
actually he is more of a musical genius than any breathing god that is not based on super lungs but great technique once the mind knows what is supposed to happen everything else is practice notice he doesn't seem out of breath at all because he is not using breath as much as tongue if you try to do that with breath it wont sound as good plus you cannot breathe in/out that fast moving your tongue while breathing out creates a flutter double triple note effect that with note changing makes the separations easier it is not hard just not easy for beginners

So heavy and so light at the same time. Great composition and performance (from what i understand).
Saw this dude play live at ITG Miami a few years ago, hes insane at the instrument and also an incredibly nice guy
Every musician living today has played "twinkle twinkle little star" out of tune and out of time at one point. What you see here is not just talent but years of practice, dedication and hard work and his recovery is nothing short of cool AF
You're absolutely right, fuck those who say that musicians have talent, they have dedication to a beautiful art that people dismiss as talent. Practice is key
Actually, this reminds me of that one commercial that played a long time ago where the little boy was on stage at the piano slowly picking out Twinkle Twinkle Little Star at a concert, and then the pianist who was supposed to be playing walks up behind him and tells him to keep playing as he begins to add flourishes and finish out with a sick arpeggio. The message was that it's important to encourage young musicians, because we were all terrible at the thing when we first start, and if you don't keep struggling to better yourself then you'll never know the joy that is being good at something.

@@phoe87 I get this is a month old, but Sergei here is an exception. He could play this flawlessy (actually better than this recording) when he was 15.
@@phoe87 it's always both.
If you are completely untalented at music, you can practice the mechanics of it all you want, you'll never sound musical.
On the other hand, even a lot of talent only brings you to a certain point, from there on out you can only improve through very very rigorous daily practice.
This wasn't even as clean as his other performances over the years but it is still a mind numbingly high level of technical ability.
you are right but even the greatest wind instrumentalist can squeak occasionally
Can you recommend a good version for this tune? Thanks
This monstrosity is in the back of a method book, sitting there like a final boss
I can get through the theme and first 3 variations then the rest just sit there like "come on big boy hit me, you cant"
Legendary Arban's
😂😂🤣 Final Boss!!!!
Dude is incredibly talented. Stunning performance
"you can't play wrong notes this fast"
Challenge accepted.
No he played them right
I think people underestimate my ability to play wrong notes. I can play them at many different speeds.
This is one of my favorite showy-but-somewhat-accessible pieces to play. No one can top Nakariakov though
Still needs a lot of technical abilities to play 😅 it’s not that easy
@@alistairleprince4541 It requires a load of skill at the fundamental techniques, but it doesn't requrie anything beyond those fundamentals, which is I think the point that they were really getting at.
@@Erin-ks4jp I mean to be fair, many of the challenging classical trumpet pieces are just demonstrating mastery of the fundamentals of trumpet playing.
welp... guess I have no fundamentals at all then, I couldn't even begin to dream of being able to play that... I am more of a jazz trumpetist tho
@@evajanin2970 Don't feel bad cause I feel most trumpet players lack the mastery to perform this piece. But even jazz playing involves mastering the basics, lots of cool effects like shakes are just simply foundational skills. I do enjoy jazz a bit more as well because you have a certain degree of musical liberty, I like being able to change rhythms, what not, things that would probably be frowned upon in the classical world
Урааа! Наконец-то это произошло с Накаряковым) Спасибо за работу!
fuck yeah, bro
My uncle was a former professional trumpet player, he played this for me one day while taking lessons. Wasn’t quite as fast, but still amazing!!
That man didn't so much have a look of concentration, than it it was a countenance of "I must play well. They have my family".
i played trumpet for years and i can say that..with a tongue like that,his wife must be so happy
This is a classic in classical school, as it is features in the Arban for all brass players, and after a couple years of college and university you get tired of hearing it but the best version I found that is very original and out there is Paul Cacia's version. He is simply an incredible trumpet player
It also sounds amazing on Euphonium. A version (although not the same) can be found featuring David Childs. A more traditional version can be found by Dave Werden as well.
@@WSUFan2017 Bob McChesney's trombone version is also very fun, very clean.
@@MysticKoolAidMan I'll be 'that' trombone player and just say McChesney's performance is... incredible... I hope we can all agree that intonation wise this is orders of magnitude harder to do on a slide instrument than that of a valve instrument and that its seriously hard for valve instruments even to begin with.
Getting 'crisp' intonation on a slide without slurring or glissing and playing fast with lots of jumps of note (ok most jumps are for harmonic positions - ie lower note, but no need to move the slide) is hard. Doing it to the level McChesney does IS a special level of virtuosity that is potentially unobtainable to the majority (no matter how good they are and how much they practice, sometimes raw talent and raw ability that cannot be learnt no matter how dedicated you are is what is required to reach that virtuosity)....
@@Thats_Mr_Random_Person_to_you Wow, I don't see how this could be possible on the trombone - all those fast runs from 1-2-1-3 - after the low C in 6th position?! I'll have to see if I can dig out a UA-cam video of it! Found it: ua-cam.com/video/nV_uKxGPF_I/v-deo.html Not exactly the same and he doesn't punch out the theme as much as this, but an impressive run up the Eb at the end,
yea Paul Cacia is a beast
The most impressive thing personally might be the crazy strings of repeated notes with such a clean and pronounced crescendo. Hoo man, every single one of these was individually articulated.
My ears: He is just making this up
My eyes: Holy shit, he is playing exactly what is written.
At this level of mastery you make it look incredibly easy.
Before you’re as good as this it looks like unachievable hard work.
I've been a clarinetist for 8 years and just recently starting to attempt trumpet (technically a cornet) and dude this guy must have an insane tongue like idk how he's doing it.
Im always reminded that many classical pieces were written as challenges to specific players to test and push their performance ability more and more.
Seeing a guy like this. Makes a lot of folks wanna quit playing trumpet. As if all trumpeters have to play that song
"I watched 1 pianist play Rush E, time to quit piano forever"
-Trumpet players in these comments, if they were pianists, probably.
when you can play a trumpet and sound like a flute, you're forgiven.
What if you play a flute & sound like a trumpet?
@@mandarbamane4268 That means you ate too many beans the day before
This is truly magnificent, the trumpeter is still putting his own stylistic twists by stretching the length of notes, messing with intuition and volume, and even playing the ritardando such that the ascending scale pattern is largely unaffected in contrast to the backing from the strings which showcases it's transitional importance greatly. This performance is a statement of mastery from a technical, stylistic, and musical standpoint.
To provide an anecdote to really help those who don't have enough musical experience to recognize that the easiest part of this performance was playing the correct notes, I'm a trombonist, and I'm at least competent enough to play John William's original scores without missing a single note - a quite painful task on trombone for those who are unaware. The arm-breaking, wrist twisting, carpel tunnel-causing, and frankly downright diabolical way in which he tortures trombonists with stupid-difficult technical transitional patterns followed by extremely precise and awkward counting is an experience that is at the very least manageable for me, but adding the slightest bit of my own twist on it causes the entire section to completely collapse from the unforeseen - but not negligible - consequences of those alterations. it is far beyond the scope of my playing to stylize sections like the one this trumpeter is effortlessly breezing through.
Edit: To be clear, the introductory sentence to the second paragraph isn't intended to be gate-keeping, I'm just refereeing to how playing at high tempos is a mark on the patience required in learning the particular arrangement rather than as a mark of musical skill. For those unaware, bleneing, intunation, clear tone, articulation patterns, and tempo management are all far more difficult than mastering fast playing.
I watched him play it live in cyprus… unbelievable performance
Gary Oldman snapped down on one of them pills like he did in Leon.
I’m going to be completely honest. I’ve been working on this variation for about 8 years now. I’m not even remotely close to mastering it. That’s how impressive this is.
So do i!
Remember learning this in high school! Was much fun to play! Never got this whole part up to speed unfortunately
I love his tasteful ending on the A instead of nailing a high F which I'm sure he could have done... real class right there.
Second trumpeter I've ever seen with a great sound. Wonderful.
Man, Gary Oldman can wail on the trumpet.
I literally got to play for him just a month ago never met someone nicer I still can't believe he's this good !
This is one of the easer pieces of music this guy can play, college players can typically get through it pretty well, albeit not with that level of attack that Sergei musters. You should put some of this guys cello transcriptions for flugelhorn. Shit is bananas.
I think his most imrpessive piece is still Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso on trumpet.
とりあえず何も気にせず適当に開いたらとてつもなく凄い演奏だった
That guy is very good at blowing the brass.
He is overrated bro
this might seem incredible, but I've heard him live playing much more intimate music and his tone alone almost made me cry, that was absolutely magical. And his phrasing too, he's an incredible musician.
I never knew you could skip partials that fast like that! Bravo, Sergei!!!
See, now this is why I play percussion.
However sometimes it may be more difficult because you would need a lot more dexterity.
Actually, there is only ONE wrong note, it's "do" at 0:10, in the "walking bass" part.
And this is extremely hard technique, you can say it from the speed, look at his fingers, it's the 32nd notes
Do? What note is that?
@@mr.skeltal8687 I think it's a tonguing method.
There is actually TWO wrong notes that he played. If you really listen you can catch them both.
@@orion7741 agree on that
@@orion7741 whole pattern seem to be a little shifted, most likely microtonal nuances, but yes, there is not exactly one obvious deviation, I noticed it some time after commenting, but was too lazy to correct myself.

Wynton Marsalis played my favorite performance of this. No matter how many times I hear it I never tire of it.
アクセントの響いてる間に16分音符が聞こえて2人で吹いてるみたい....

I may play the clarinet, but I still know this takes hella talent.
I don't know how many trumpet player in the world can play this...
And with this perfection ? I bet he is the only one.
What a monster.
Check out the first track off the album "Carnaval" by Wynton Marsalis on Spotify. That track will change your life as a young trumpet player haha.
He's one of a very small number that can do it this fast. It's actually quite a common piece for advanced players to have, because it's pretty much the culmination of the most famous and important trumpet book.
Dang,Kenjiro Tsuda playing th dayum trumpet
As a trumpet player, I genuinely have no idea how you can get this fast and accurate at the same time.
You play since when?
I love Sergei's playing cool to see him on your channel
Cuando observo y escucho al maestro Sergei,, no logro concluir... Si está virtuosa manera de interpretar motiva o desmotiva... Excelente!!!
You can see the other players being impressed at the back. Haha
But damn, that guy is shredding on a trumpet! 🙌⚡
"You're a trumpeter, Harry."
As a trumpet player i can assure you, this guy is an ABSOLUTE MONSTER!!!
Why?
Un gran músico y gran técnica, mi admiración
Never underestimate anyone’s ability to play wrong notes. They’ll often surprise you.
And no-one were better at that than Victor Borge.
Someone who does not play the trumpet may not understand how difficult it is to jump from high notes to low notes like that. Believe me, i don’t play the trumpet so I have no idea.
i watched my college roomate play this exact tune memorized from beginning to end and I'm still wondering to myself how it was humanly possible to this day.
Instantly reminded me of Korsakov's Flight Of The Bumblebee.
This is insane both the player and the transcription!!!!!!!!!!!
It’s like a guitarist who can play a thousand notes a second ,doesn’t always mean it’s good !
the title is just a joke because the notes sound off. he’s playing better than most people could ever dream of, and doing it right
@@kennihilator that's not the point lol they're saying you couldn't even play wrong notes this fast, and he's out here playing the right notes like a champ.
I love Sergei Nakariakov's playing. Absolute master
As someone that used to play the trumpet, it's easier to do this than you think. If you're off, even by one, you don't really think about "hitting the right note" when you're playing that fast, you just perform the movements with muscle memory. So once it's sent, it's sent, you're on autopilot and you're going to finish that regardless of if you're off or not, because you have to.
Those octave jumps are challenging at half that speed.
As a trumpet player can confirm that this is impressive. Double/Triple tounging is already impressive. Now add in all of the notes. Damn impressive
as a human being with two functioning eyes i know this is impresive
this is very impressive but i can’t help but laugh at how pained he looks to be playing this
can you blame him
This is my least-favorite variation to do on the trombone lol
Lol, that’s when you switch to the valve trombone between variations.
That's when your trombone turns into a weapon of mass murder. Starting with you. XD

I'm curious. Is the "do you have perfect pitch? / A: no" in your FAQ a joke? As in "of course I have perfect pitch, you idiot". To be able to transcribe really complex music so quickly and accurately, I don't see how relative pitch would cut it.
This is well known and in the arban trumpet method book
I don’t have perfect pitch
@@ryanwalz2416 I'm not talking about this video specifically. He's transcribed a lot of very complex, multi-layered music that you won't find in any book.
@@rocketman584 Perfect pitch just means you don't need any external reference... if you train your relative pitch enough, you can transcribe super complex stuff just as easily. You can even argue it's easier with relative pitch because you're hearing/understanding everything in context rather than just depending on an instant recognition.
I have friends with perfect pitch who are much slower at transcribing chord voicings/harmonic shifts/strings of fast notes/etc. because they're relying on hearing and identifying 10 individual notes, where I'm just taking everything in at once in relation to the key/chord/whatever.
I'm sure perfect pitch is great to have but you can't develop it, whereas you can train your relative pitch to an infinite degree of detail/complexity. That's why the online obsession with 'perfect pitch' is so frustrating - if you don't have it there's nothing you can do so people get disheartened, but you REALLY don't need it!
@Kanpindon From what I've always understood about perfect pitch I think what you're training there is actually pitch retention/memory... like orchestral musicians can all perfectly identify an A because they've heard it hundreds of times over.
Not trying to belittle your experience - it's all semantics I guess and depends where your definition sits (is perfect pitch purely the ability to name notes without reference, or the rare genetic ability to do so with no training?).
Also not doubting the usefulness of being able to identify notes with no reference - it's something I have spent some time on myself and really glad to have done so. I just don't personally call it perfect pitch!
The fact he hits those accents so well is unbelievable
さすがにカッコよすぎやろ
Carnival of Venice is a DEVILISH piece to play, it's truly beautiful but sooo tricky. The jumps are insane - coming from a violinist/clarinettist, anyone who is successfully able to make it sound good is a very talented musician.
