im preforming this in about a week or so at the chicago jazz fest and im not going to lie even if half of the group doesnt show and our lead sax bust a lip it will still take this and fuck it up the ass
I play this in my county jazz band. I think as a jazz band you need some dynamics and a bit more practise before you perform, especially the soloists. I'm sure you guys could sound amazing though.
Guys guys, it's not that bad... Now I can understand if many of you have problems with it. I certainly do, I play the music like probably man of you here, and I simply love the jazz an Alto can put out. Now, the entire song was slurred...>:/...that can be fixed though, as well as the tuning. Everyone just needs to put in a little bit more effort that's all.
omg my jazz band is 10 times better than what you call that we got the music two weeks ago and we'd school you!! you guy performed and we are still trying out people too!!
Thanks for taking a crack at playing jazz. There are so many ensembles who shy away from jazz and improv. To all of the people being critical, come on.. they are in 8th grade. Please save your professional standards for somebody else.
the saxaphone line was out of synch, drummer was right, tuning would be a nice addition. trumpets get ur horns out of ur stand, project your sound...get into the music guys, enjoy it...add some spunk to it....cept that one trumpet who added a bit too much and went flat lol
You guys really need to learn to tune and also you need to learn how to Balance the instrument sounds. And eeryone looks like a fucking zombie. Get into the music a little...then it's somewhat tolerable.
wow...this band is a discrace with how cocky they act, yet they suck.
something kinda funny is, when i was in 7th grade we played that song with about half the people, maybe 3/4, and we played almost perfectly, we played it awesome. Sorry, just saying
Gawd you guys are no fun you gotta move around and stuff not just sit there with eyes down at the music in my band he move around when playign this song. And btw this was bad!
you want to here a good version of this song? look up stafford high schools version. its a million times better. and trumpets should learn to play high, jesus.
rchambers the stanfford high schools versions sucks... it's way to fast and the gutiar solos had no distortion for a rock classic? really? the sax solos in this song is a whole lot better. This school did a great job and the tempo is a lot better instead or your's cause you rushed all of it.
Were r the trombones!!! u guys cnt calll urself a band with out trombones!!! epic fail!! if u do have em they suck b/c u cnt hear thm!! u guys sound so out of tune! our orchestra sounds better
and thts bad someyimes.. but yeah.. u plp arnt good!
yoooooo way to fast god like my jazz band dont go this fast and the cd doesn't ever go fast and the reason why the solo's out of time is becasue the drums are out and way out this is an easy peice
The Bands' overall tone isn't that great at all in my opinion. The music seems to be moving too fast, and the breathing intervals are too short (2 measures per breath at that speed? come on...). I'd say it's about a 2/5.
Uh, thats not improv, thats the written solo on the sax, but it sounds like the trumepts need work and over all the tempo is a lttle fast but good job,
You did good, improvised I can tell. I'm looking at my music. I'm a bari sax player and my director is letting me do it, I'm just changing it up to make it beyond lower so it sounds cooler on the bari. 8)
he didnt improvise that. my jazz band played the same arrangment and I had that solo. he didnt play it write he was like wayyyyy off on timeing. we ended up getting 1st place at states.
the solo wasn't all that great and they are going a little slow. needs mor jazz twist to it. if they are going to perform they need to work on the solo. and i i heard a couple squeeks toward the end. But they did do a little better than my retarded school
In my opinion could use more jazz twist. . . the Bruton High School jazz band one adds more of their own generic jazz twist. You guys could add some of it. Look them up to see what I mean.
