It's a real pleasure to see all these young people rethinking the music of the 'old' ones. With good taste and sensitivity. The clarinet sounds sometimes like PW Russell in the high notes and the tenor solo is of a very high level. We are on the right track with this new generation who not only know the 'tradition' but are also able and aware to bring new things. Congratulations to all of you.😀

That’s authentic asf. Wow, excellent craftsmanship all of you!!

I love music that you can absolutely feel, something that just makes you want to move and shake to the rhythm. I can’t explain the amount of times I replayed this, it was AMAZING.

That was impressive! It was really cool. I played tenor sax in high school. When I graduated, I left it behind. I always kind of regretted it. After what seems like 100 years, I started to learn the soprano sax. It's amazing what comes back to you after a long lapse of time. I fotgot how much fun it was.

life is worth living because i got to listen to this guys' solos

That music just hits hard. the swings and the tone are ABSOLUTLY INCREDIBLE!

The clip just got better and better 😂 superb musicians and heck audience too, their applause was timed beautifully.

Excellent playing.

If anybody wants to listen to the original version this is based on, it’s the Count Basie orchestra recording in 1938 of “Blue and Sentimental” with Herschel Evans on tenor and Lester Young playing a rare clarinet solo.

I really adore this kind of music, I think it's above any other kind of music

Oh my god that was beautiful. My guys out here killing it.

Holy crap that clarinet solo was so insane!

im literally in tears this is so pretty 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Gorgeous tone, god blessed you.

You wouldn’t believe how incredible it was live.

0:31 the lick: double lick variation

You are all brilliant! 🎷🙏🎷🙏🎷🙏🎷

Holy crap what a sound, great work man

As a fellow tenor saxist, this dude gives me chills. He’s so good at playing his solo.

That tenor sax dude is awesome. Well done !

this is absolutely excellent

man ever since ive found this video i cant help it but rewatch it everytime i open youtube

Maravillosa interpretación, felicitaciones!!!

I’m a proud alum of this group. Gotta give it up for the director Dr. Gregg Gelb

I love this chart, one of my favorite Basie tunes

To be so good, so young!

Every cell in my body wept with sheer joy hearing such EXCELLENCE and knowing the love of such beautiful music didn’t end with the previous generations 🙏🏻

I forgot where I heard this, but it’s very rare to hear a “Smoky Tenor”. And my God this Kid knocked it outta the park. Got the right slurs of bright notes down lock-and-key! Brilliantly done, and well executed. “Not too Smoky that you can’t make out the Speed Limit, but just enough to make out the Town you’re in…” -- Someone In My Memory

I really like the changes in texture throughout the piece

ABSOLUTELY AWESOME

Yo that was so good

Really new to jazz and tenor (played alto before) and I have a goal now: IF I CAN MIMIC EVEN A FRACTION OF HIS POWER MY LIFE WILL BE COMPLETE.

this sounds amazing

This performance literally made me cry before it was so beautiful

I think I just listened to the tenor solo like 7 times. Those were some SEXY licks

I knew so many kids like these that were incredible and then dropped playing after high school for one reason or another, and it's heartbreaking. I really wish schools put more into music programs. I got lucky, but a lot don't.

Beast, on the tenor man. Sounds amazing!

God damn playing so relaxed his spine could fall out.

1:01 this part sounds like it's straight out of "Everywhere at the end of time"

Beautiful sound on the tenor sax. For some reason, very few sax players seem to be able to get a great tone like that today.

Classic! So good

gave me chills man

This is incredible.

I wonder if this piece would induce nostalgia/melancholy in someone who never before knew of anything related to european/american culture, like a monk in tibet or maybe congolese tribesmen. Is it something intrinsic in the music that makes us interpret it this way or is it just our own life experiences?
