Hans Dekker driving the band and Karolina with the icing on the cake and of course Christan Mcbride. Such a brilliant combination . WONDERFUL.

wundeschoene Musik! Bravo Karolina! Bravo John Marshall friend of my Prof Al Porcino in Munich! Great Christian McBride!

Karolina Strassmayer and the trumpet player just tear it up!

I was first introduced to this song in my mid teens I guess. The intro stopped me dead. I was young but when I heard the walking bass line I realized, even at the age of fifteen, what "cool" meant. I just turned sixty-five and Quincy Jones' chart of "Killer Joe" is still one of my favorite jazz tunes.

Fabulous flute solo... five stars to the band

Hope someone in the UK will invite this superb band over sometime........SOOOOON!

Christian McBride, Carolina Strassmayer it can't get any better than that! I am a firm believer and fan of this great big band and look forward to seeing, hearing and viewing new videos as they come. WDR you are one of the great, if not the greatest, Big Bands to happen on the music seen in recent years. As I stated before, I am a fan for life! Thank you for the joy of music that you all bring!

Karolina Strassmaye Wow dear girl, that is one of the best flute jazz solos I have heard, ever!! Speechless!

Love the WDR big band, they are a class act in their own right and even more so with visitors aboard.

Go girl! Every time I hear that song, I think of my man Hubert.

First time I heard WDR they played behind the maestro Josef Zawinul. This lady played an alto solo and I was blown away! I became a fan and wanted to hear more of her work.

Its the first time I've heard Karolina on flute.Someone please write a number to feature her on flute.What a band to have behind you when your soloing.This is a band that's shows you what can be done.What an inspiration to up and coming musicians.More please.

Thanks for posting, Karolina!! And knock out solo, i'd say the lady was down with all of it!!! Carry On!

Beautiful all around, and I love the trombones' laying back in the pocket on their stabs.

Great flute work by Karolina on this classic piece by Benny Golson. The whole band sounds great on the Quincy Jones hip arrangement from Walking in Space.

This was a kick of this Song! Loved this version as a Jazz drummer it hit a great spot in my heart! Loved playing along.

Once again you folks have broken the ceiling on this arrangement!! Just outstanding!!!

Love that flute solo 🔥🔥🔥

I like the way she is spitting out the notes..a way I like to hear the flute played , something I try to do with varying success...Good to see someone as great as she is doing this...something to aim for 🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂

WDR, should have begun again!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for showing your prowess on the flute, Karolina. It encourages me to play both -- the alto and the flute! NB: I heard some Jeremy Steig runs...

This is a cold piece...Outstanding Composition, Great Big Band 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Many thanks for this great perfromance. Wonderful Karolina !!

Great arrangement artists and solos, thanks for posting this.

Thank you Karolina, I'm a big fan of yours and of the whole WDR Big Band.

sprazzl

Not sure about the opening phrase on the solo trumpet

Really a great flute solo!!

Great playing Karolina, I shared it on my Jazz Group facebook.com/groups/jazzvideo

You know this piece has only two chords, basically, and thus makes me wonder how they can come up with such interesting solos!

"YUP"...

except for the 1st back-up section licks

Слишком академично,предпочитаю Tuba skiny.

Way to swing Karolina:) trumpet solo was too stiff and angular..no swing:(

Too much flute. It's HARD Bop!
