I like the articulation, the shaping of the notes, the staccato, the intonation, the togetherness on dynamic changes, the togetherness on tempo, even the dress and composure of the musicians. That's a lot to like. And I liked it more than that!

All those saxes, and not one "Sanborn lick"! Amazing! Seriously, it is amazing and beautiful!

The tone quality is exquisite - such a gorgeous sonority.

I love this ensemble, what they do and how well they do it. First class playing. Please keep it up, for the sake of all music lovers who appreciate true talent and musicianship.

This is the best thing I've seen in while. I stopped playing my alto 14 years ago and I'm reinspired!

This is fantastic. I know they they are a saxophone ensemble, but I think having a "guest" snare drummer wouldn't have hurt.

Mi-Bemol takes the reality of superior musicianship into a new dimension. Splendid.

And they say saxophones don’t belong in classical music. Classical music on saxophone sounds spectacular when done right

I wonder what kind of 'being', let alone a person, could ever dislike this. This is way beyond being awesome

+Tuna Dalcam Awesome is right. Some people run programs that automatically "thumbs down" all popular videos except their own, thinking that they can get youtube to rank theirs higher that way. And of course there are trolls that think it is fun to "thumbs down" anything.

What a wonderful progression, the ensemble is perfect !! Lovely overall sound and rendition 🎷🎷👍👍⭐️⭐️🎷🎷

I can't believe, how smooth They stood up at the end!

I could listen to this over and over! It’s a living, breathing musical performance.

Recently Spectator mag had an article on Bolero. V impressive.

the biggest problem with conventional sax players is that they limit the sax to a saxes sound: let the sax sound how it is! that's the beauty of sax! it can manipulate its sound to sound differently, and they mastered this perfectly by using different styles and sounds!

I can't help thinking that, if we only have a few saxes among a traditional orchestra, then having the saxes produce a non-sax-like sound doesn't really work, because in such a traditional orchestra we would specifically want them to sound "like what a sax would sound like". This Saxophone Ensemble were able to do it so nicely, because the band consists of saxes and saxes only, so there is nothing to worry about unstereotypical sound qualities.

I disagree with criticisms that the arrangement was too repetitive. I am a professional arranger and it held my attention from beginning to end. I consider this to be one of the best arrangements of any music I've ever heard. I also happen to be a saxophone player (a student of the late, great Joseph Viola) and I heard excellent musicianship in every way, all the way - bravo!

It's Bolero. It IS repetitive no matter what instruments are used. They did a good job.

In my lessons, I was always taught that the sax's sound/tone should compliment the environment and situation...that a sax's job is to "fit the pocket" and "fit the piece". From smooth jazz down to Ravel...So I get what you are saying. Basically, one of the sax's strongest points is it's ability to have it's tone drastically manipulated and blend with others...which is why they often double other parts at times haha

Stellar intonation, sensitive interpretation, hot dressing gowns!

They need to go on tour to the US, i would go their concert if they came to San Diego.

Qué versión más elegante y soberbia hace el conjunto . Saludos desde GRANADA. ESPAÑA .

A magnificent rendition and so in keeping with the original, jazz inspired piece. The sonority is wonderful and I love those not -quite glissandi at the end. Excellent!

absolutely fantastic never heard anything like it before it was beautiful

What impressed me as much as the virtuoso performance was the FLAWLESS INTONATION.

Amazing sound you guys! Wonderfully controlled!

Absolutely wonderful Ensemble. Loving the range from very very soft beginning right through increasing to such a tremendous finish - Wow! The position of the instruments on their right looks so elegant. Their movement enhances the enjoyment too. Bolero is amazing - thank you so much for sharing :)

Es lo mejor que he escuchado nunca. Increible como suena, como una orquesta... o mejor.. yo que se. El saxofon bajo que hay le da mucha profundidad al grave. It is the best thing I have ever listened. Awsome. Perfect...I don't have any word to describe.

Excellent playing and sound recording. Unique!!

AMAZING.. Great Job from start to finish.. WONDERFUL

Incredible Sound Color , I hear strinds !

Too awesome as a fellow alto sax/clarinet player

Incrivelmente maravilhoso!!!

still waiting!! I want to buy the entire performance on DVD

In love with this ensemble!!!

mehlem za dusu !!! hvala

bravissimo!!!!

Awesome intonation with Soprano saxes excellent. Timbre very consistent-a few spot where it was too bright for orchestral sax -IMO. Overall Fantastik!

Absolutely brilliant.

Brilliant playing- Thank You!

Cool, a bass saxophone !!! Really good intonation as well, can't imagine what the players who played the rythmic part throughout the piece must have been going through !

Faz 12 anos que ouço e não enjoo. Sensacional!!!

¡¡¡¡¡ WOW!!!! YOU ARE FROM OTHER PLANET!!!! GREAT !!!! MARVELOUS!!! ALL YOU'R GENIOUS!!!!! WATH A DELICIUS-THANKS NIPONS!!!! YOU ARE THE BEST IN ART, MECANIC, SCIENCE, IN ALL...!!!!

Lindo Demais , desejo tocar assim meu sax algum dia :)

듣기 좋습니다~

very beautiful sound ...

好聽到讓我起雞皮疙瘩。

Que coisa mais linda amo isso eh minha cara Sax

stunning

Uma surpresa sonora, pois ficou muito bom de escutar.

the whole song was a huge crescendo from pianisimo to double forte

Fantastic! Maybe a suggestion : the vibrato is too much important for the soprano section in the second stage of the piece when the forte and fortissimo arise, but the interpretation is in the spirit of the original orchestration and they sound in a amazing way

the blend and sound is so smooth. if u listen closely it sounds like an oboe playing the short notes. anybody know where I can get this cd?

This video is good. Especially the soprano.

this is surprisingly cool

Can you guys please come to the international saxophone congress next year in Scotland!! July 2012 check out the website and have a think about it you would be fantasttic!

Can you come to Malaysia again like last time during the flute festival in 2007?

A long, long blow! Great orchestration, with lots of varying colour. Feel a bit sorry for those on the never-ending triplets, and variations of....

Ya, it's actually fine either way. I used to play "side saddle" for awhile until I grew taller and it became generally more comfortable to play down the middle. But even now, some situations I find that a side position on alto is more comfortable...the principle is comfort, and it's better to be comfortable while playing than not :-)

"Bolero" by Ravel

Actually, it isn't something 4th graders would do. The saxophone can be played to the side or between the legs. There are several famous saxophonist who play to the side. It's a matter of whatever works for them or how they were taught to play the saxophone.

that tenor solo...
