Quote from: Silver3B on Jun 27, 2008, 07:04AMThat was wonderful ......cool gig. Why so many empty seats up front?

You're kidding.

Right?

Two reasons...just in case you're not kidding.

1-The danger of being injured by alla those blasting tubas, euphs and what ever the hell else they were using to do the Busby Berkeley thing. Deafening, even on my computer speakers.

2-Equally deafening...? The amplification on Harry's solo.

3-Potentially life-threatening corn allergies.

I mean...when Gene Krupa played those drum solos, he made something /happen!!! And the Goodman band was swinging its collective ASS off. 16 or so world-class jazz players.

A 50+ member wind ensemble?

I don't THINK so.

And then there was Benny Goodman.

No slouch either, if y'know what I mean.

Plus...it was new then. The chart, the idiom, the music. Alive.

Now it's more like corn-fed canned ham. The kind that has lots of preservatives.

I understand that Harry is just doing his job and all...great playing, in that style...but really. We **** and moan about how no one pays attention to the trombone, and then people stay away in droves when we do something like this. The view from the balcony near the end of this video attests to the fact that it wasn't just the front seats that were empty.

So it goes.

QuoteJames Markey when he was only 17 playing for a masterclass with Christian Lindberg. He sounds really beautiful, Mr. Lindberg really enjoyed it.
I read that and thought I remembered that I was there and blown away by Jim's playing, which was great by any standard, and even more so for a 17 year old freshman at Juilliard. So I clicked on the link, and sure enough, that's my fat head in the camera shot! Beautiful playing (the recording doesn't come close to doing justice to his sound. Note that he's playing a stock Bach 42...everyone's choice for pep band these days!), but the amazing part was what came next...Lindberg suggesting something musical, and Jim able to immediately incorporate exactly what he suggested, without a second thought. Lindberg demonstrating something on the trombone, and Jim matching him, and even surpassing him a little. Eventually, Lindberg ran out of things to say, and Jim had this innocent, "cool...what else?" look on his face. It was a great afternoon. No wonder he's achieved what he has at his advanced age of 30 or so.

Quote from: ctingle on Jun 17, 2008, 09:35AMThanks mucho for sharing this, as it presents a lot for all of us to chew on. Joe Alessi improvising at a high level....Wycliff in testifying mode in front of a great bone choir....the interplay and exchange of roles....

all over Mozart's Requiem themes to start!!!

I find Wycliffe's treatment of the melody to be particularly effective. Is it OK to play like that? Works for me!

There are starting to be so many video clips of trombone players on YouTube these days that it is hard to keep up. Anyway, here is a girl who was very popular in this topic some time back - Gunhilde Carling, but this time a trombone duet with her sister Gerd. Mom on banjo.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=X6WP2qtTPe0

Good entertainment value, which is what the Carling family bands are all about.

I saw this one a while back and sheesh, I was blown away. Being a female trombonist, it's always nice to hear female trombonists kicking butt like this.

Yes'm, that's an Olds TIS! He's playing the same horn on some Eddie Condon videos and on the "This is Jazz" movie/special too. It was Dickenson's main axe for many years. Cool, eh?

And...as I have been saying, they are amazing axes. I have 4 now. The best one...for me, for semi-practical use in some situations...is a dual bore that appears to be around .500/.515.

Damn they play well!!!
