ahh! needs more bari on that D! (concert F) i think theres too much noise there, but great! we just got done with this for jazz night at our school! (6 hours of jazz and blues by the students and alumni!) great song!
Sax solo - out of time. Sax section out of tune with each other. Trumpet solo was awfully quiet, so I decided to sing it myself. Drummer seemed confused by the ending, nowhere near enough bass for my liking.
Geez those drums are too freakin loud! But the band is good...but those drums! Why no trumpet solo? Is the sax solo improvng or off beat? idk...sounds like ya got a real good trumpet player. Check out my page we're playing this song. It doesn't sound too hot though cuz it's outside but I'm posted the inside version right now.
He/she should control that hi-hat more! (I think it's spelled like that) Also, if you forget your solo improve or something just don't stand there...or someone else should start playing it. You should ALWAYS be prepared for something like that to happen! Hey...our drum player does like a measure-2meausre fill at the end. It sound cool like that!! Try it!
Yea my jazz band this for our concert. Our alto and turmpet just used the blues scale for their solo instead of the written solo. It sounds better and it changes every time, with gives it more zip.
I will gladly check yours out. I wish I had a video of our band performing it, but my band director won't let me tape us.
wtf wheres the trumpet solo...we played this for out concert and i played the solo like a balla..omfg i had a total for 8 solos today my chops were dead
My jazz band is currently playing this song, as the bari player and I am told to try and play loud enough to be heard yet still quiet enough to be within dynamics. The bari part is coved up by the rest of the band. They need to work on dynamic contrast and making sure crucial parts, like the piano and bari, are heard more often. Good performance though.
So am I too. I even play bari for concert band. We head to contest in the next few months and my band director says I am sounding a lot better each time. Anyway, i had him look at this video and he agress with you and me. Plus he thinks the dynamics need to be controled more.
Awesome, I bet the band sounds great with you on bari. What other songs do you play in jazz/cpncert band. We play Sweets, I got a Gal, and some other I can't think of off hand.

Lol every time I see people playing this song they never do improv solos, i dont know why lol

but one thing i seriously gotta say... the background HAS to be quieter for the soloist... i can't hear the soloing trumpet at all
either that, or he just has to play up :P
but overall, nice playing :D
