Boston Brass

My goodness, the Boston Brass guys were so good! They are all incredibly charismatic. Their playing is like nothing I’ve heard before! Usually those Maynard Ferguson recordings have crazy trumpet solos are so impressive already, imagine hearing it live, then imagine it x5. Oh man.. Their volume level was also crazy, I’ve never heard any human play so loud before! My ears were literally ringing after their final piece! And for quite a while after the performance it felt like somebody was stuffing their fingers into my ears. That was just sitting in on one song only loh. Other than that the students at the conservatory were only so so.. I dunno, I kinda expected more from people who play and study music everyday? Here’s some pictures of william, 2 of the brass players, some random students, and a pretty girl not so pretty girl.

{bostonbrass} William gets some pointers. Sorry.. couldn’t help the pun! haha..{bostonbrass} The guy has this super thick boston accent. The rest not really..{bostonbrass} Some random students{bostonbrass} This is the tuba guy. He’s like.. super awesome!

If you din read the caption.. I said, “William gets some pointers” wahhaa.. so pun-ny right? Anyway, the guy we talked to could reach phenomenally high notes and still play normally after that. Fantastic Jazz player.

I shall upload the boston brass master class recording.. there were some really good tips but mostly about being entertainers and about showmanship.
