I’m watching and listening here in spring 2024, one day beyond the ninth anniversary of this amazing performance . Would love to know what these promising musicians are up to today. Anyone else here in 2024?
Я из России! Впервые слышу этот ансамбль духовых! Сложнейшее произведение для органа! Восхищена этими ребята! Безупречно! Профессионально! Чувство стиля на высочайшем уровне! Браво!!! 👏👏👏🔥
Absolutely superb. Anyone who knows how hard to do note control of wind instruments knows. I never imagined this Bach masterpiece would be possibly performed by trumpets. Weldone!
Как великолепно, виртуозно сыграно! Спасибо за этот шедевр и прекрасное начало дня! А организаторам канала безграничная благодарность и удачи!❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
I can't stop watching this extraordinary performance. I sadly assume that these kids upon graduation went their separate ways, but at least they will have a videotape to remember forever.
I'm a trumpet player (USAF Band), but did my senior recital on organ (don't ask). I played this piece on my recital. As a player of both instruments this is nothing short of amazing!!
Recuerdo cuando mi padre me llevaba con el a los conciertos con diez años en la ciudad de Palencia en Castilla la nueva España. Mi padre era el musico por aficion y me llevaba con
As an organist (and trumpet player), I have played this on the organ for over 20 years. I am super impressed by the trumpet performance. My compliments to these wonderful young musicians. I was delighted to see the young woman. My daughter and grandddaughter are accomplished trumpet players.
Such a cool technique! As a trombonist for over 20 years, a trumpet player for one (beginning band in HS to improve on trombone) and an organ enthusiast I APPROVE! This was beautiful!
As a trumpet player I’ve always love brass versions of songs and huge fan of the Canadian Brass version. But holy cow this is brilliant. These young adults should be very proud of this accomplishments!
Watching in September of 2024. I played brass from the time I was 12 through high school and college in honors bands and these are absolutely amazing musicians.
@@Geoplanetjane One was playing a "piccolo trumpet". Although they exist in different keys, they generally play one octave higher than a typical trumpet. For short, it is called a "piccolo."
I'm watchin ! I'm Peg! I have always loved Toccata And Fugue In D Minor. I was just a kid when my parents were watching the silent version of Phantom of the Opera! They played that song! I was hooked. These young people are playing so well, but the cello version is my favorite! Enjoy and Happy Easter!
As an organist and lead trumpet in my school band, this performance particularly speaks to me by combining beautiful Bach organ repertoire with the magnificent trumpet sound. It's simply Beautiful!
I also am late to the show, and will assume these students have moved on to play with orchestras throughout the country, based on their talent. This is by far the best non pipe organ version of Toccata & Fugue in D minor I've ever come across. A goldmine of talent in Oklahoma.
I've got to say, that was incredible, and to think their chops lasted the whole performance! Wow, that blows my mind. Beautiful tone, beautiful musicality, and an absolutely amazing job!
I still remember the first time I heard the Toccata and Fugue played by E. Powers Biggs on a period pipe organ. When I saw they were going to attempt this version, I never expected it to be so good. The timbre, volume control, tone, Bach would be pleased. A fine and clever arrangement, exceptional performance by so very young musicians. Altogether, the Great Master is smiling.
One of the greatest pieces from Johann Sebastian Bach, musically challenging piece to play, they performed awesomely with the chops can’t believe the performance delivered by the university student musicians 🎊 Excellent!
I played trumpet for 37 years and was lead for most of those years. Elementary middle high schools, college and then in the army. I have not played since I retired from the Army 7 years ago. I have not missed it once, Until just now hearing this and I have tears in my eyes. Amazing beauty of an arrangement and ensemble. Bravo Zulu!
Very musical interpretation and beautiful tone from the lot of you. Congratulations. I would think this would rival any school of music anywhere. You must have an incredible program there.
I was in Band for 7 Years. Marching and Concert. I started in the 6th grade on the Cornet, then in the 9th grade changed to the French Horn. What they have accomplished is Amazing. Many, many hours of rehearsals as a group and by themselves. Bravo!!
Apart from anything else the tone matching between the players is extraordinarily good. Phenomenal playing. Wish I'd been that good at that age. Or ever.
What a wonderful performance! It is great that a music group from my alma mater, O.S.U., has received this recognition. I graduated from O.S.U. in 1963 with a B.S. in electrical engineering after attending with a 4 year MUSIC scholarship. The music program was wonderful way back then. I was first chair trombone in the Symphonic Band, first chair baritone horn (euphonium) in the Concert Band, bass trombonist, and bass trumpet in the orchestra, although I was the only non-music major in those groups. Dr. Hiram Henry was the Conductor, and a great personal friend. I did not attend the 50 year anniversary of my class, as I have since received an M.S. in electrical engineering from U.S.C. an M.D from U.C. Davis, and an internship and residency in Orthopedic Surgery from Stanford. So, my time at O.S.U. seemed so far away. I hope to attend my class 60 year anniversary in 2023. My years at O.S.U. were wonderful years, although I was dirt poor.
JS Bach would surely have loved this performance. And if it's good enough for Johann Sebastian then it's good enough for anyone! An incredible performance and interpretation. Thanks!
I had lost some of my enthusiasm for the D Minor Toccata & Fugue; You hear it so much; But this performance has changed my feelings. Amazing! Let's hear more Bach from this talented group!
A fond memory now is sharing this with my recently departed (Jan. 30th) Dear Sister who also had a lifelong love of music ... When I think of my Sister I think of music ...
Heard this played on the organ in Chartres Cathedral, France - breath taking - I wonder how this ensemble would sound in such a fabulous building ?? Pretty fantastic !!
So well done! Composed to preserve the effect of Bach’s masterpiece within th,e constraints of the instruments. Great wor, I think the Master would be pleased.
Algorithms being what they are, YT is throwing all kinds of versions of this piece at me played on everything BUT a pipe organ... Tears of joy.... Great job guys!
@@euphplayer6941 Rather Karenish of you, don't you think, to scold over such a minor, or rather, miniscule, non-issue? Somewhat as this comment itself is, lol.
Awesome.... I was taught classical piano; but always wanted to play a horn of some sort.... i.e., French Horn. It always seemed so elegant. 🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹 Piano was always and always will be my favourite!!!!!
Kompozytor nigdy pewnie się nie spodziewał że jego, właśnie to wspaniałe dzieło, będzie można wykonać, i to w tak perfekcyjnym i wspaniałym stylu , na instrumentach dętych. Brawo, brawo, brawoooo👏👏👏👏
Awesome job. Someone in the comments asked what year i am listening ..Listening for the first time on Saturday June 10, 2023 in Rhode Island in the USA
Richard Baumeister nahhh i play the piano and when you practice long peices eventually its muscle memory you dont really think about what your playing you just play it comes from LOTS of practice
Samuel Mendoza If u don’t have 100% memorized then ur not practicing enough I’ve practiced around 5000 hrs and I have memorized a total of like 100 pieces
As I'm looking at the video I'm enjoying it completely, so I was about to give it a thumbs up and noticed that it was already lit up which meant that I had already given it a thumbs up -- I didn't remember. As I scanned down the comments I see that I saw this video 4 years ago and enjoyed it then as well.
What a wonderful performance! It brought back fond memories of my HS days both in Texas and Oklahoma when I played trombone and won many medals for just this type of performance almost 60 years ago. I am particularly proud of our brass quintet playing Clarke’s Trumpet Voluntary in the Dallas Dad’s Club talent contest in around 1964. We won first place!
What's up, 2024 gang? Who's still watching?
hi trumpet daddy

September 2024 can I play Brass in honors bands in high school and college. And these musicians are absolutely amazing.
Me too also

As a professional musician let me say with admiration that this one of the finest musical performances I have ever seen and heard online. Remarkable.
October 2023
For me, the bass is missing. No one plays the 'pedal'.
But the rest is astonishing.
@@gottfriedheumesser1994 да, низов не хватает, но в любом случае, исполнение прекрасное
And as a pure music enjoyer, except for a few notes that were played too early from what I could tell, I agree.
It’s 2023 and this is the first time hearing this. All I can say is: “WOW!”
This is my first time seeing this also and I totally agree WOW AND WOW they are exceptional
Yes!!!
The way they pass the melody between them with no change in timbre is exceptional!
That's something I noticed, too. The group is very well matched and obviously practiced together quite a bit.
Same. I kept wondering: "OK, who's playing now?"
@@willwyatt7023ha ha moi aussi. Archi dur.
EVERYBODY gets a solo.......
Absolutely a truly professional performance.

It’s almost 2023 and I’m listening…. Stunning.
I'm listening too, amazing.
I'm not listening, just a routine to open this video and then close it.
Listening now... vibes all over me... stunning, briljant musicians!!
Me Too!
Most likely to all listening
I love it when they just tickle your ears with a perfectly tuned chord right at the start. Non-trumpet players don't know how hard that can be

Молодые музыканты ! Бис ! Браво ! Необычное исполнение на этих музыкальных инструментах ! Здорово ! Великолепно !
This is just stunning! Such a difficult piece to play, but they blend together so well and to do it all from memory is just incredible.
What an awesome rendition of one of my favorite pieces.
I was going to comment that they have no music, it's played from mermory!
Young brains.
As an organist (and trumpet player), I have played this on the organ for over 20 years. I am super impressed by the trumpet performance. My compliments to these wonderful young musicians. I was delighted to see the young woman. My daughter and grandddaughter are accomplished trumpet players.
They turned around to imitate the reduction of sound as a result of closing the swell box of an organ where certain pipes are housed. Genius
Such a cool technique! As a trombonist for over 20 years, a trumpet player for one (beginning band in HS to improve on trombone) and an organ enthusiast I APPROVE! This was beautiful!
Or perhaps to simulate playing that part on the Ruckpositive. Either way extremely clever.
Still going strong in 2023. Simply stunning!
As a trumpet player I’ve always love brass versions of songs and huge fan of the Canadian Brass version. But holy cow this is brilliant. These young adults should be very proud of this accomplishments!
I Bach's Toccata and Fugue. I would never have imagined a version with that would move me, yet here it is. Stunningly beautiful.
It is now 2024, and it is still enjoyable to watch and listen to.
Watching in September of 2024. I played brass from the time I was 12 through high school and college in honors bands and these are absolutely amazing musicians.
That was a very, very crisp and accurate performance. Superb tone. The piccolo was some of the purest natural tone I've heard from anybody.
Piccolo??? I did not see or hear one.
@@Geoplanetjane One was playing a "piccolo trumpet". Although they exist in different keys, they generally play one octave higher than a typical trumpet. For short, it is called a "piccolo."
I'm admiring the center flugel's tone, it's so warm and rich that it sounds just like a french horn
I'm watchin ! I'm Peg! I have always loved Toccata And Fugue In D Minor. I was just a kid when my parents were watching the silent version of Phantom of the Opera! They played that song! I was hooked. These young people are playing so well, but the cello version is my favorite! Enjoy and Happy Easter!

Unbelievable! The sound, the arrangement, the whole perfomance is wonderful!
Masters of their art, and well beyond their years. What discipline.

Totally amazing, wow! Many greetings from Czechia in Europe.
Impeccable balance and played as one instrument. Truly moving.
As a trumpet major over fifty years ago and teacher, it just does my heart good to see such young talented performers.
The diversity of Bachs‘ music is astounding and inspiring
The dynamics of these musician's coupled with absolutely perfect acoustics leaves me speechless
Heard this played on the organ in Chartres Cathedral, France - breath taking - I wonder how this ensemble would sound in such a fabulous building ?? Pretty fantastic !!
I first saw this in 2024. I hope this group is still together.
My favorite organ work and this is wonderful! Bravo to the ensemble!
Well that’s the best seven and a half minutes of my day so far.
So well done! Composed to preserve the effect of Bach’s masterpiece within th,e constraints of the instruments. Great wor, I think the Master would be pleased.

Really sounds beautiful and
so professional.

I would have just passed out half way through the performance, they have incredible chops.

The memorization alone is very impressive
Richard Baumeister nahhh i play the piano and when you practice long peices eventually its muscle memory you dont really think about what your playing you just play
it comes from LOTS of practice
If you dont have at least like 80% of the song memorized you arent practicing enough.

just wait until you see a marching band
