I remember hearing my first live jazz band concert at a college. This was after going to lots of rock concerts. The jazz band blew me out of my seat, I was hooked. I had the pleasure of going to the Monterey Jezz Festival and hearing lots of the greatest, but the premiere was attending a Count Basie and his orchestra concert in San Luis Obispo. Wow!!!

I'm impressed by the saxophone section that play not only saxophones but clarinet, flute and piccolo. Sure, clarinet and saxophone are similar, but definitely not the same, but flute is entirely different.

@paulpearson99 2 ай бұрын

It's actually not uncommon for sax players to play the flute. If I recall, the fingerings are similar.

@utha2665 2 ай бұрын

@@paulpearson99 The fingerings may be similar, but the embouchure is entirely different. Clarinet and saxophone are probably the closest, but even they are fairly different. Fingerings are similar for the lower clarinet register, but because a clarinet overblows a 12th the upper register is different.

@paulpearson99 2 ай бұрын

@@utha2665 true. It's been years since I played sax, and I never learned the flute. But several friends in college played all three and commented that the similar fingerings made it easier

if you’re going to play woodwinds in any kind of jazz band, you better know how to double and triple up your instruments. as a sax player, you never know if they’re going to hand you a clarinet, or aa flute part.

This performance is the musical embodiment of C.S. Lewis's quote, "When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up." Serious musicians having some fun with pieces that demand you don't take them too seriously.
