24 Robbers - shedding some lesser played alto sax
มุมมอง 772 ปีที่แล้ว
Once every few years I get a gig on the Alto sax and then I have to shed it frantically. What better tune to blow out the cobwebs and bust out your chops than "24 Robbers"? What? You've never heard of it? You gotta know the tunes! Unbelievable.

Cool
Nice one. Dunc! Loved this, mate - and what do I know about jazz?!
Probably more than me tbh
Thank you so much. Will subscribe and check out more of your stuff
Yoooooo! Fantastic analysis! Keep it goin'
Cheers!!!!
The concept of "Winning" in any artistic pursuit is nonsensical! But I love your analysis. I've been familiar with these solos (particularly LY's) for over sixty years, yet your analysis has given me some new insights.
Cheers for the lovely compliment! Re: "winning" - I just put that in for a laugh. They were both such incredible masters.
Had my haircut yesterday. Great playing, as ever Duncan.
Nice work buddy, love it :)
Cheers!!!
You sound amazing, and your pianist has Fats Waller's left hand and Oscar Peterson's right hand. That works for me. And shout out to your drummer, too, who knows to stay below and drive things.
Oh man! Thank you. Yeah, Jason (piano) is incredible. He sings brilliantly and plays really great banjo. I miss working with him. Kevin (drums) is a total boss too. I've only worked with him a couple of times but he fit in so well.
Great stuff.
Cheers, mate!
Sounding great as always; I like the cheeky paraphrase of Prez at the start of the solo
At the start of the year, I was doing an arrangement of the solo and so I spent a bunch of time on it. When we were playing this I thought "I know the solo in 'G' so I can play it in 'f'." I very quickly found out that I couldn't! :) Such a dufus.
Great Duncan :-) Well played and explained. Loved it!
:) cheers, mate! Thanks for watching.
It would be cool if the score has chords though :)
I'm sorry about that. This was originally made for non-musicians (particularly in the dance community) who love Swing music to help them understand it a bit more. I worried that the chords might over complicate things. If I get around to it, I'll try to add a chord sheet as a PDF or something similar. Thank you very much for watching and commenting! Watch out for the Lester Young Vs Charlie Christian video coming soon :)
beautiful! thanks a lot
Cheers, mate!
@@duncanhemstock skype lessons when?
@@danieleswing1648 I'll send you a dm!!!!
It looks livke you love the camera more than your sax... :-) but it sounds fab though
Great video! 🎉🎉
Cheers!!!
Beautiful Playing Peter and co. and Great video Duncan! You've made me love the Clarinet even more!!
Thank you very much!
Wonderful
Thank you so much :)
Thanks for the National Day post. Looking forward to hearing more. Much more. ^. .^
Thank you! Watch out for the impending National Clarinet Day :)
Thanks duncan! Great vid (again)
Cheers mate!
I note that chicken gets around a bit Duncan :) Thanks for the talk
Hahahaha
Great rendition. Lovely introduction. Thank you. PS has some kind person made some music transcriptions of Ben's work that I can learn to play in my tenor?
G'day mate! Thank you for the kind words. I don't know of any books and I can't find the ones that I've done other than a recent one of Rosita from the album "Encounters" - Hawkins and Webster. I've included it for you in the description. It's a lot easier to play than it looks. Enjoy.
Nice trio tune btw!
I had a pretty untamed Barnet till today
Hahaha! I'm glad that someone got that.
great guitar playing!
He's amazing!
So great and sounds gorgeous!
:) thank you so much!
mannn you sound so sick at the end. nice man.
Bro, you're far too kind. Cheers.
the bears seem totally indifferent to your gorgeous performance... they must be londoners?
Don't be fooled! They're working overtime to play it cool. Inside, they're a tempest of zeal.
Yeah, Duncan! Love it... !!
Thanks, mate. Stay safe, stay sane!
great!
Cheers!
Nice Dunco! The committed eye contact while you sing is the stuff nightmares are made of! You might like this: www.dailymotion.com/video/x2r8gyi

Nice video dude!
Cheers, mate!
Also, hi! Welcome to the intertubez.
Shifty bass eyes at 3:40
HAHAHA
Nice bass playing man, I'm very impressed, soon you'll be good enough to play in my band!
I liked it cause it's you Duncan. I think there is loads more room in these for your natural charm and wit.. We want to know more about the man behind the facts.. ☺️
:) cheers! I'll endeavour to be more me which is sort of the opposite of what society requires of me normally.
Well done, I now understand Count basics! Cool video bravo
HAHAHAHA. You Wally. Thank you.
thanks for making this!
I'm so happy that you enjoyed it! Thank you.
Every time you say "g'day", I expect you to finish up with "chris here, welcome to clickspring" (see th-cam.com/video/B8Y146v8HxE/w-d-xo.html )
Hahahaha! How Pavlovian. I love videos of people making and/or repairing stuffs. I'm so useless at it that I find watching these kinds of videos thoroughly mesmerising. For a while, I was obsessed with these ones th-cam.com/video/ad42ZLoX2OI/w-d-xo.html
The album track sizzles.
Cheers! The boys were on top form.
You're in Blighty now so surely it's "trouser" piano
HAHAHAHA! Certainly not "pants" piano
Great explanation, Duncan!
Cheers, mate! Thanks for checking it out.
Nice 6M you have there! An early artist edition I assume?
Thank you! It makes a nice partner to my 10m. Unfortunately I don't know much about it other than it's from 1960. I very rarely play alto but I love the sound of this one. The intonation isn't the easiest to control but that's probably because I play it far too infrequently. Thank you for watching!
@@duncanhemstock Huh! I'm surprised that it's a 60's model, given the underslung octave mechanism, but I'm sure you know better than me! Lovely playing anyway - I really love the sound of old conns (which is why I have my own 30's alto), but your intonation is still beautiful compared to mine!
@@harriesadam you're far too kind. As far as gear goes, I really have no idea. I just throw on a reed and mouthpiece and hope for the best. The previous owner told me the dat so I'll double check the serial number to see which year was made. Who knows? Maybe it's even cooler than I thought!
@@duncanhemstock Definitely agree that it's the player rather than the gear - I just happen to be fascinated by the history of the instruments, and I love thinking of all the people who played them before me, and how they made their way to me! w.r.t conn serial numbers, I've found saxpics the best resource, specifically this page: www.saxpics.com/?v=man&manID=3 and this one: www.saxpics.com/?v=ser&manID=3#full_chart Here's to it being even cooler!
@@harriesadam Mate, thank you for piquing my interest. I've started to look things up now. Stephen Howard is my go to in these matters www.shwoodwind.co.uk/Reviews/Saxes/Alto/Conn_6M.htm I love his website and he's a lovely bloke. I'm sure you'll get a lot out of what he has to say.
Fascinating stuff! I also love that your notes are clearly just to your right =P
Thank you. HAHA! Yes.... I need to find a way to improve that. At least in this take, you can't see the reflection of the script in my glasses.
yeah you have, i heard that cheeky stan quote into Eb maj, very naughty
:)
You haven't been listening to Stan Getz have ya
Never heard of him
Shooby doo!!
Shoo-bee doo-bee!
