slide_advantage_redoux Posted April 13, 2006 Report Posted April 13, 2006 Unbelievable! I viewed a Comcast video earlier today featuring this 4 yr old boy who is playing trumpet. REALLY playing trumpet. Not being pc savvy, I don't know how to send nor post the link. Perhaps someone here knows? This kid is shown playing Girl from Ipanema with a jazz band at a coffee house! He has a pocket trumpet...good thing since he is so small still. Amazing. Check it out. www.comcast.com Quote
DukeCity Posted April 13, 2006 Report Posted April 13, 2006 Yeah, that kid (now 5 years old) was on Leno a few weeks ago. He played "It Might as Well be Spring" with Kevin Eubanks and the boys. Pretty freaky. Now, if he could just get a habit, and an agent who takes 50 or 60% off the top... Quote

Maybe he'll be hipped to how sad the state of affairs are in the music biz, and keep that shit as a hobby! Quote
Claude Posted April 13, 2006 Report Posted April 13, 2006 (edited) The Comcast videos are for comcast subscribers only. There is a 4 minute video linked in this CBS article. The boy is amazing! http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2006/01/10/...in1195835.shtml Edited April 13, 2006 by Claude Quote
Jim Alfredson Posted April 13, 2006 Report Posted April 13, 2006 He'll blow his lip out at the age of 10. Quote
Ron S Posted April 13, 2006 Report Posted April 13, 2006 If he had picked up a soprano sax instead, he'd be a future you-know-who. Quote
mgraham333 Posted April 13, 2006 Report Posted April 13, 2006 His girlfriend shoots him with a spitwad by the monkey bars.... Quote
Rooster_Ties Posted April 13, 2006 Report Posted April 13, 2006 Shame his shelf-life is limited. I mean, if he could somehow milk the "4-year old trumpet prodigy" thing for 10 or 20 years, he could probably really make a career out of it. Quote
