This is the best form of art :,) such beautiful music! I was torn between alto or tenor but after watching this I know the tenor has my heart, and I will be purchasing my first sax very soon! Thank you!
Congrats! They're both beautiful instruments, but I find the tenor richer and more versatile. That being said, if you can, learn them all! Good luck on your saxophone journey, enjoy!
WOW!!!! JUST WOW!!!! That is the most amazing jazz I have ever seen. I play Tenor Saxophone and those solos were amazing!!!! So awesome!!!! Keep it up Sammy Miller and the congregation big band!!!!
17 year old tenor saxophonist here! I play classical at the moment, but I would love to be able to play music like these bands do. Awesome performance!!
I really liked the first concert F the lead trumpet played at 3:35 as a #9 - never recall having heard that harmony used to open a rhythm-changes-style bridge. The second F worked too, of course. The third one...I was wanting to hear a 1/2 step move in either direction to go with the dominant 7, but the V chord brought it all back together with a shake to boot ;-) Nice lead chops!
Smokin! Also, this video inspired a search for amazing live sax battles, but it's mostly memes. It'd be much appreciated if anyone here has a link or two to a cutting session, sax "battle" (not the NYC subway), etc. Thanks in advance.
@@smcongregation Thank you Mr. Miller! The live Eddie and Johnny session is a gem! I especially love the ending, the old school energy was amazing. Also, thanks for linking Eternal Triangle; I listen every so often and I don't think my jaw has left the floor from the first time I heard in over 20 years ago. Thanks for linking all of these!
yea its a bit low he still has a great sound , he just wouldnt have to stick his neck out like that proly get an even better/bigger sound if he pulled his neck strap up and brought his horn a bit more into his mouth. soem cats are used to it like that , sax is a very personal insrtument its gotta be just right.
@@NYCSportsNBA i agree he sounds great , i just think he looks very uncomfortable. i'm a 50 year sax player and teacher and what comes out of the horn is what counts but the way he has the strap he will have back aches and even jaw and mouth pain since the strap is doing no work more of the weight of the sax is on his lip than should be but when you play great who cares? it's up to him i guess
Yeah! And this is why today music suck, you may not like Jazz or Classical but what a dynamic! Dynamic and the metronome is not fixed. All the music we listen in radio is produced with zero dynamic and no timing variations. Flat
1:49 is that the Mario Kart Lick I hear
this performance was from 2016
MunchBang he was 2 years ahead of his time
Evan Christman I read this comment just as I heard it lmao
When it doubt -- play your Nintendo 64 language :)
Great energy! not only great to hear but great to watch ! that's what entertainment is audio and visual
Thanks AL!! Hope you can see it in person when concerts come back!

what do u call this jazz style i want to hear more music w the same vibes
These guys are great but the tenor on the right needs to raise that horn up on the neck strap
yea its a bit low he still has a great sound , he just wouldnt have to stick his neck out like that proly get an even better/bigger sound if he pulled his neck strap up and brought his horn a bit more into his mouth. soem cats are used to it like that , sax is a very personal insrtument its gotta be just right.
