Rockabye River - Spartan Youth Jazz Band - MSU Jazz Spectacular - April 2024

Our Spartan Youth Jazz Band performance of ‘Rockabye River’ was written by Duke Ellington.
This was at the MSU Jazz Spectacular competition April 2024 in Lansing.
High school jazz bands compete and perform the music of Duke Ellington and other big band composers before a panel of Jazz at Lincoln Center clinicians and other jazz professionals, all aiming to earn the right to perform that night in the finale concert and move on to the next phase of the competition in New York.

I love the plunger sounds in the opening. Reminds me of the Buddy Bolden vibe.
