These recordings give you no real sense what it was like to have these trumpeters pasting the high F and G right onto the back of your head from eight feet away. Just Thrilling. When I went to these shows, I was always torn between sitting in the front row, or where Mark or Freeman would be standing later. But in the front row, you could see the little puffs of fog come out of Maynard's horn every now and then, which was equally fun.

I was in a music workshop in High School with the Maynard Ferguson band in 1974. The night of the workshop, his band had a concert in the school gym and we got to play Hey Jude with the band. I played Alto Sax. I saw his band play on a couple other occasions. What a great memory and a great talent. Bruce Johnston played Baritone Sax on Gospel John back then, and his solos are STILL memorable. Thanks for posting this video.

A bunch of us as high school jazz band students saw Maynard at Tokay High School in Lodi (Calif.) in 1976 (or was it '75?), and they went into the audience for "Hey Jude." Trumpeter Ron Tooley was right behind me just making that horn scream. Of course, we stole the act and did it at our own future concerts.

Had the privilege of seeing the band live at Bowling Green University in Spring of 1972; Two of my friends and I sat right on the front row. We even taped the event on a cassette player. On this particular song we sat slack-jawed realizing even the 4th trumpet player was hitting high f's :) One of the better nights of my teenage years!

+Usetowannabemusician I'm thinking that at 0:43 Maynard decided to swiftly slide up to the Double C instead of the A natural below. That A which is how the piece was originally written. Why not play the A? Because a fourth ledger line above treble clef A natural tends to slot poorly. Even on a strong trumpet player. Or most players in general who can even play one. As "Hey Jude" comes at the end of a long concert? We can feel certain that endurance was a factor. Some cats can play seamlessly way above Double C however their sound tends to be smaller. For them the A natural is just another note. But their sound lacks "Bigness". They'll be pretty good in the studio and even fine live BUT will need a microphone to be heard over the band. One player like this was the Late Bud Brisbois.Great player but he really didn't have a solid double forte on anything. Could control the hell out of his high notes to well above TRIPLE C, No foolin! But he couldn't get a truly big sound. Sadly this may have led to his mental woes and his eventual suicide. Conversely Maynard always had a huge tone.Part of the reason for this was he was able to design a shallow mouthpiece but with a very large back bore and throat. The shallower piece allowed him lots of endurance, control and power but the opened up tubing didn't sacrifice sound. Conversely Arturo uses a very large mouthpiece. Something resembling a Bach 3C. He plays well in the extreme upper register but his tone doesn't sizzle like it should. I think that Sandoval is really a jazz improv player at heart. That despite his gifts he doesn't like playing high notes so much.
@jorgecallico9177
8 жыл бұрын
That's a biggie. I used to play the Bach 1&1/4C in my teens but this was before I became a lead player. Today I can get a bigger sound on a very small trumpet mouthpiece. Just so long as it's been well bored out in throat and back bore.

@lilyellowduckiePhD From the Trumpetmaster website, and Wayne Brenner: "The Jettone MF 'cup' has a unique convex V shape on both versions, and there is no discernable bite on either. The biggest difference is in the throat size. The original had a rather large throat size of 19, as Maynard got into rather free blowing equipment, from the 1970s onward. Maynard Ferguson played on this model Jettone through most of the 70s."

Personally, I don't think he's that good. I mean, compare him to the likes of Bud Herseth or even Adam Rapa, and he sounds like a High Schooler who figured out how to squeak out high notes. It should be all about the sound. If it sounds bad, just because its high doesnt make it good. Bill Adam would have something to say about that.
