Mission Impossible (Literally)

James Morrison!… The mission would at lest be impossible for me. If the video does not play, click on, “Watch on YouTube”.

@ssmith1226 Hot! A nice, tight ensemble. The piano player ain't too bad, either. I like his Mannix theme every bit as much as Mission Impossible.

Ahhh, the great Mr. Morrison. He must have elephant size lungs.
I found his you tube tutorials ( especially on breathing ) quite helpful back in 2016 when I started my comeback after a 50 year hiatus.

Yes, there are a few ringers.**
Lalo Schifrin, the composer, not only of Mission Impossible, but also Mannix, conductor and pianist does a great job. In the rest of the concert James Morison, in addition to trumpet, is also featured on flugelhorn and Trombone.

James Morrison does an outstanding job utilizing circular breathing and alternate fingering to nail the long passage of supersonic triplet rhythm, I suspect, without having to use his tongue. Very Magical, no matter how he accomplished it!
