    I guess I’ve never paid much attention to trombones - so, is he doing that holy sh*t playing mostly through embouchure and breath?
    I mean, I know the slide is doing its thing, too

    I first watched this when I was tired, so I didn't really cry. I just felt even more tired.

    As a sophomore trombone player I gotta memorize that sheet music and somehow defy the laws of physics and play it like he just did(it ain't happening for a while)

    I remember practicing with my music teacher for half an hour to be able to hit those really high F's and afterwords feeling dizzy beacuse of the amount of effort, so to see him hit it with ease is amazing.
