You have absolutely EVERYTHING to gain and nothing to lose.
Have you heard anyone playing like Dave Steinmeyer lately??? ...jazz ballads, buttery smooth way up high?
Nope! Since 1988 when I played a joint concert with the Airmen of note and shared this stage with Dave that night, and having heard Bill Watrous play when I moved to Cali in the mid 2000's, NOBODY has come close to the perfection that is...DAVE STEINMEYER!
The amount of alternate slide positions he used was incredible. Also was quite possibly the smoothest High B and Bb I've ever heard.
quite possibly yes
I think he was going to 4th for the F so he could use slide vibrato. Make the notes sing more. That’s just my guess
He makes his trombone sing. Best ever?
I use alternate slide positions all the time. The freshman sitting next to me in our community band was totally stumped at what I was doing. I explained alternate positions and gave her a chart. I told her I don't get paid mileage. She's now in university and texted me recently thanking me for a lot of tips and music I'd passed on. She ended with "I don't get paid mileage 😁!"
I was wondering why he was using Bb in 5th along with D and F in 4th, then the music changed keys from Bb to B natural, and I instantly understood. It was to keep both sections stylistically the same (overtone series to boot!).
I have to say, this is quite possibly the greatest trombone solo I’ve ever heard.
Actually....it is!
this ones pretty nice, one of my all time favorites is this one

he’s my uncle!! he is absolutely the best person ever. and his talent is just wow. he’s teaching me how to play trombone currently 😁
Your kidding, right? Go listen to what Marshall Gilkes plays for solos. This is Jr. Hi stuff. Gilkes is Varsity.
@@elmerwilliamson1970 they’re two different types of players man. No need to down play one. MG is a cat, like he actually plays standards and stuff. I haven’t really heard Dave so much in terms of bop or swing, aside from his stuff with airmen of note, but that doesn’t downplay his musicianship.
He's so chill while going up there to that double B and hanging out on it. I remember Wycliffe Gordon doing a workshop and telling a story of how he started playing with a big band where Dave was playing lead. Wycliffe said that once the gig was over, Dave would sit there and play in that extreme high range for a while (possibly at a softer volume, but I don't completely recall). When Wycliffe asked Dave why he was doing that after the gig was over, Dave said something about the importance of being able to play in this range at any point during the day, even after a gig (when one's chops could be presumably gone). In addition to playing in the upper register regularly, another thing I got from this anecdote was being so efficient "upstairs," that those notes should be accessible at any time of the day, despite the circumstances. Maybe this is related to working on endurance and/or never playing to the point of being chopped out?
Could be
That's really cool, I'll have to try that!
I have played with him many, many times. This isn't even close to what he can do. His mom plays the violin. He played a duet with her, and he was right up there with her the whole chart. A little secret is that after he went head over heals off his bike, he chipped his front teeth right in the middle. With a little work he had the perfect air flow for the extreme high register. That's why it looks so effortless. He also taught himself to play. Amazing guy to know, too.
Dale sorry but the duet was with his wife Judy, not my grandmother. Judy is a fabulous violinist.
I was the engineer for the Airmen of Note. It was an amazing time to tour with Dave and the Airmen of Note
Yes it was...not like now hehe
@@TRUMPETSIZZLEwhat’s different now? Just wondering.
This is the first time had my breathe taken away by anything. I can’t imagine how crazy good this sounded live!
Steinmeyer is a wonderful player and definitely rigbt up there in the ranks of high range specialists. It's also worth noting for any younger players who might see this that many of the best and most influential trombonists of the past century have never played anywhere near this high.
Thats true
I’m so very grateful for my upperclassmen telling me about Dave steinmeyer two years ago. He became and still is my favorite trombone player of all time. From the first ever track I heard of him. From the effortless high range to his buttery playing. Dave is one of the few trombonists (I’ve heard) that can make a trombone sing like he does. He is my idol. I hope one day I can get somewhat close to his level. Wish I was born earlier to hear him play in person. Truly a legend in the world of jazz trombonists
I felt pretty confident in my ability up until 1:00
GULP!
I'm still confident there. I die when the high F or G or whatever the hell that is about 30 seconds later.
Or that super b flat near the end he decides to kill.
@@JeckelTB B natural!
@@classicjazztbone
Yes, the key changes from B-flat to B.
Wow. Awesome. If I hadn't just seen it played by Dave, I would swear a double high B was impossible on a tenor trombone. Incredible.
Wow, those high notes!
indeed
I am friends with Dave. In fact, I have one of 3 copies of this arrangement in my office. Dave has the other one, and the original resides in the music library in Washington DC for the Airmen of note.
Woah
It doesn’t sound hard for him at all but as a trombone player myself I know this is extremely hard and the last note made me drop my jaw😦
So clean and such control. I'm raging jealous.
BRAVO, BRAVO!
that put a smile on my face😊
I can’t stop watching this
Note the breath vibrato on the end high B! I remember seeing the Airmen of Note, led by Dave, at my high school in Saint Cloud, MN in the early 1980's. They were fabulous--and it seemed that he could match the lead trumpet in probing the stratosphere....
Beautiful
Fabulous!!
So wonderful!
Thank you! Cheers!
Wow so amazing ❤❤❤❤
Magnificent!
Great Performance!
yes
This is so pretty. Im gonna have to learn it
ナイスハイトーン 素晴らしい 惚れちゃうね✨ ５０年早く聴きたかった‼️
Amazing!!!
Thank you! Cheers!
Then there is Dick Nash. No one comes close.
YOU SHOULD HEAR HIS "BLUE GARDENIA"!
really?
Que hermoso sonido
🙂
Замечательно!:))
Sensacional! Lindo demais
Thanks
Wonderful
Thank you
DAYUMMM
yo yo
Just played this on Euphonium, it slaps so hard. Could only play the first few lines tho 😢
My guy's making high Bb's (right above the bar) sound low...
The highest I can play is an octave above that, and this guy's making it sound easy.
He makes it look so easy. Lucky? Who else is playing up there… maybe Gilkes. Watrous and Al Grey could play up there, I heard him do it with Basie.
The perfect embouchure in trombone doesn't exist... oooh wait…
He makes it look so damn easy.
Não me canso de ouvir esse trombonista.
HERMOSO DIVINO ESTUPENDO MAGNIFICO QUE BELLO
si
Eccellente
yes
is there anywhere i can download this transcription ?
Hi. The closest right now is the music on the video
Incredible, who is he? The model tbone&mouthpiece? Thks
Him? Just some schmuck trying out the bone for the first time.
😊😊
Seriously I have been playing trombone for a while now, how do you hit that last note? 😂 my highest is the d five lines above the bass clef!
That's pretty good. I don't think mere mortals can get to the double high B flat!
I’m here wondering the highest note you can play on trombone, I can play a note that’s not even on my key :/
I can play higher than most professional trombonists, but let me admit: My trombone playing is not that good lol
Oh cool, do you know how high professional trombonists play? I’m wondering because I’m trying to build up how long I can hold my high notes and how high I can play. So far I think I’m on D
I saw your Bb scale and gave it a like. Most pros could play 2 octaves higher than that. Also, your 2nd position was too far out causing your A to sound flat...otherwise you did a good job on that scale.
Thanks! That was my first year playing I can now play an octave higher now that I’m in my second year. Thanks for the feedback!
You problably know this now, But high range is unlimited on the trombone. You can theoretically play infinitely high
Very nice. Don Lusher esk.
I think you meant to say Don is very Steinmeyer esc..At this stage in his career, Dave would have made Don look like a little kid in the candy store..
He really like to play f in 4th
@@TRUMPETSIZZLE F is in 4th, since F# is in 3rd
ok
@@tobintregear8318 and F is also in 1st
It could be because of intonation or tone or even just preference, but it could also be because he did it so the pattern would stick
Yes, he is a beast with incredible chops and such clean execution, but this is not an improvised solo
Some of it is, but who cares. MOST IMPROVISED SOLOS are not that great. If a composer didn't need to spend hours crafting an amazing piece of music, they would all line up like idiots and spontaneously REGURGITATE jazz patterns through the changes WHICH IS ALL every jazzer is doing.
How in the hell did he do that? I guess nobody ever told him that was impossible. Quadruple high B natural.
I am not worthy...
I gots to know............
I don’t understand writing and playing in the bass clef,,when most of the notes are above the bass scale
I'm guessing steinmeyer is about 6'7", that probably helps.
you're close he's 7'3" ... without shoes on.
He’s 6’4”. He’s my uncle.
I used to gig with two trombonists that were 6’8”. I was 5’9”. Height doesn’t matter. Great guys. Miss those days.
Very inhuman talent 🤣
HMMMM ok, i think I get what you mean
He looks so out of it the whole time
he does?
