Quality music the likes of which our ears shall never hear again in a thousand years.

Possibly the fastest playing of the solo part I ever heared.

I remember back in the early 90's when his huge hit cd from Kennedy was released. Still one of my favourites after all these years. :up:

Very nice. Since I am a trumpet player, I always liked the Allegro assai by Bach. It is the most difficult Bach piece for trumpet and this guy is playing it on a natural trumpet. No valves, all chops. The trumpet only has a few holes for to adjust intonation. What is even more amazing is how easy he makes it look. He has killer chops:

I also enjoy watching people have tourette's syndrome as they play their instrument. My god do some of these people have overly expressive motoriques. The whole time the trumpet player is just blowing his way through calm while the rest of them have a stroke.
