HOBO HO Vienna Art Orchestra , LIVE !

[epistrophy68]

RIP, VAO. Today Ruegg announced that he's disbanding the orchestra for economic reasons, after 33 years at the forefront of European large-ensemble jazz.

This is pathetic! Listen to the original. This is a pansiefied, weak, lame piece of B.S. I f Mingus had heard this, he'd have come out swinging. This is the kind of crap that gives real jazz a bad name.

Die band ist verdammt heiß ...und der leadtrompeter ist ein absoluter GOTT !

[Will22793baseball]

such a great arrangement on one of the great unknown songs by mingus! do you know where i could find this?

[bbbiggs]

It's on his "Let My Children Hear Music" album.

It is a great song!!

[Will22793baseball]

i agree totally but i mean the arrangement: is there such that can be found? i love this song so much that i want to find an arrangement for my jazz band!

[fonfeluch]

the whole album is wonderful, if there was no electric guitar in above arrangement, maybe it could come a little closer to that masterpiece, i dont like syntetic instruments.

[josvandenheuvel]

Just mail Mathias Rüegg (the conductor) He kan schip it to you.
