Because it’s about the soloist at this point. Come on man any musician know that your nothing without the right support. Just give the man the respect that is due. One thing you know is from hearing the others play you know that he had to earn that spot it’s not given TRUST ME!!!
I think the difference in this performance and the one during homecome, if this is William is, William played during homecoming to FINISH THEM!💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿 Of which we all know HE DID.🤗💖💖
There's a whole amazing genre of playing like this called shout bands (as others mentioned, the soloist here is probably from that tradition). It's a tradition that goes back nearly a hundred years, all based around an African-American church called the United House of Prayer or UHOP. There are some albums out there of shout bands but not enough.
It is criminal that this is not a music genre I can find on spotify Big pimpin horns Power jazz Big bone energy Fucking goated someone make this a fucking genre already I'm so done with smooth and quiet jazz
@@islandcomedy932 For real and my band Teacher be like get on the bus meaning play your part but the tempo be like 160 or something like that and those note be having dying. It is either I can't breathe or my arms not functioning. Smh😂
I need for them to go around to diffrent high schools, heck even middle schools and play this and get more kids interested in music. Like have the music teacher teach the black and blues the original way and then let these guys show them how they can use there skills hone them, grow them, use their creativity to finesse the heck out of a piece. They would absolutely love that and definitely be completely inspired to want to do the same. This would lite their entire creative fire. These guys are lit. That is all.
I BEEN TELLING GUYS THIS FOREVER!!!!! I was in The Band in High School as A Snare Drummer, Section Leader and Drum Major and it was The Best Time of My Life. I played Basketball too but When The Football Coach wanted me to play Quarter Back I turned it down because I wanted to be in The Band 😂😂😂😂😂 In The (Black Schools) Band was a whole different World and I fell in love with it. I think You're Idea is great and it should be done immediately
Seriously. My grandpa took me to see mindi ebair when I was 8 years old. I was so inspired I’ve been playing the trombone and sax ever since. All it takes is to see someone so passionate about it as if it’s another language. to become so deeply inspired solely on the fact of someone else’s passion is trulyamazing as kids now days just see everyone as just trying to get by.
@@stephaniecurry45 different kind of singing, this is the kind of soul passionate singing of gospel and the like, high energy like the surroundings. Of course Joseph alessi also makes his trombone sing but more in a formal sense, like an opera, sounding very nice.
This is the best soloist I’ve ever heard on this fanfare.. the intonation, control, tone, etc.. it’s perfectly executed.. Gotta give credit where it due. And the background players also did their thing.. that bassist held it down by himself, the chords were executed dammit near til perfection. The dynamics were off the charts🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Thank you Will Bilal and the other trombone players! My daughter is in 6th grade band and was assigned the trombone which she did not like until she saw your videos. Now she practices all the time so she can be as good as these guys-Keep inspiring!
Man, I am confined at my place for the COVID-19 and this song is officially becoming my anthem to stay positive! Great job to all the band and cheers from Spain!
THE ENTIRE BAND deserves recognition‼️ Soloist, keep doing what God called you to do. His anointing will soar you higher than you will think or imagine. Congrats to all!
I keep trying to stop watching his videos but it is impossible at this point 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️ his passion is intense and that is what makes the music so good. That trombone "sings" every note!!!🤯 As a choir boy I LOVE IT!!!!
Video (S)...? There's more? Where oh where? Pleeeease share with me where?😍🙌👍👍🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶as a fellow trombone player and music/arts lover i get all teary-eyed, have chills & goosebumps, memories of moments past whenever i see things like this and marching/symphonic/orchestral bands.
Look. I have watched this video no less than 100 times today. I need to know if William got a Twitter so I can blast this to the high heavens. This needs to be done live in a studio...HELL Ill chip in on the studio fee. This needs to be done in that setting so that the entire world knows how great these cats are.
The cleanliness. The tone. The articulation. The vibrato. The soloist. The dynamics and balance. The like to dislike ratio. If you haven't guessed I'm listing great things about this video.
The way the band prepares for the soloist to break out and rejoin the meldoy is crazy. They an entire unit. His solo is so clean, but truly magnified by the notes placed around it. Rays from the sun the give the sun that extra feeling when brushing across the skin. So smooth.
If we all stood together, the way they are in sync, imagine the music, imagine the change..Thus is bringing ppl together right now.. ..They are awesome as a whole..Stand Strong Young Men...
Pure fire. I consider myself blessed to be able to experience this. Give a damn about skin color- but if it means all this delicious culture? Sometimes I feel like my soul wants to be Black.
My theme song when I'm walking as a BLACK MAN WITH SWAG!!!! From North Carolina!! This joint is 🔥!! The supporting cast is also great the control is so real..I play T-Bone also so I truly give thanks to you brothers for bringing our instrument 2 the 4front of real..The bone is the heat..heart and soul..🙏
Theres something bone-chillingly-hair-raisingly electrifying about hearing an instrument played beyond its capacity, especially with such a fine execution.... Hats off!
This has resurfaced now and 2023 going in a 2024 and it is still lit. Let me tell you when I tell you this is still going around and it's so inspiring. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Every time i hear this he has a new amazing solo, these videos make me wish i never stopped playing. Untold hours put into this craft for him to have that level of skill.
i saw this on ths gram and came here to see it. the way they played literally brought me tears of joy much respect to all the masters of their craft. put music back in schools
everyone’s hyping up the soloist but let’s take a sec to appreciate how good and blended everyone sounds together
Especially the 3rd and 4th measure of the verse... Someone hitting the 2nd underneath to round out the chords.... I hear it 💪💪💪
Absolutely

the moment when your teacher teams up with his gang and shows you their skill...
Relatable.
Yess my band teacher used to do this

That is awesome!
They're going to need some bodyguards playing like that.
Is it just me, or did some of the higher/harder notes almost sound like a sax?!? Dude went hard..!!!
Someone needs to put ALL OF THEM in the studio… In all my years I have never heard a section this dope.
This has torque!
This is FIRE!
This needs to be a track asap
I've heard at least 40 incarnations of this solo, including professionals and this blows them out of the water. bro is NUTS
What's the name of it?
@@SamLyndonShow black and blues
1:49 someone threw a towel and the guys face killed me lmfao
I never heard the original song until this band made it viral. Now that I have heard the OG, they definitely elevated the song
What's the song?
@@jonnyb9843 Al Jarraeu - Black and Blues
original song is like a ginger compared to this version. Got no soul.
The lead solo trombone player is United House of Prayer all day. You know their players anywhere
H.O.P music is clearly distinctive!
Yes sir
I peeped that as soon as i heard his first notes
Lol it is imma witness
On god lol
Man, I am confined at my place for the COVID-19 and this song is officially becoming my anthem to stay positive! Great job to all the band and cheers from Spain!

i have never seen kids get this hyped for a trombone solo. i hope these young men are doing fine now.
Never heard that tone from a trombone! 🔥🔥
Bro turned it into a saxophone
Man I new heard that before either
He plays like in stratosphere, no wonder you newer heard notes this high
This man has completely mastered this instrument. I mean what else is there to play after this?
Nothing else… my band would play this for every song
There's always more to play
Word! Just keep perfecting greatness.
A lot more a stupid amount
Everything
That solo touched my heart
Time for the rest of us to put the trombones down for a while!

This is by far the BEST TROMBONE sound I ever heard. I've watched this about 100xs they are truly remarkable.
William Bilal PLEASE make a studio version!!! You inspired me to play the trombone after I watched your Fairfield performance.
What a wonderful tribute to the greatest jazz vocalist of the modern era, Al Jarreau. RIP sir, you’re greatly missed 🙏🏽
Thats that uhop flavor right there!!!
All day...
The way the person filming is jumping up and down makes it look like they're all marching to the beat on he spot lol
Amazing piece too!
Benedict College Bones going hard in the paint for HBCU's, Big Ups! The group sounds great and the soloist is on fire🔥🔥!!

Wow this is EPIC. We have nothing like this in the UK. So much positivity and brilliant to watch
Let’s all get a new tune.
This is well done.
T-bone for a lot of years.
Great harmony, nice lead.
Brought tears.
Tight as heck.
Can we agree this has potential to change the way the youth creates music? It’s romantic and uplifting at the same time
Very talented group of trombone players. The solo artist made that thang sang.......... Big ups to him
I get Goosebumps every time I
Watch this video. so good
This is the best trombone soloist I’ve ever heard 😍
Does anyone comprehend how inspirational the band is and how moved the young generation gets lost in the master piece..
This is an amazing arrangement and performance! The practice and lung capacity to make a trombone sing is astonishing 😲
This is unification at its finest they sound amazing together.
All of them are pass talented bruh this really do something to my soul💙💪🏿💯🔥🔥 every time i hear it
