thank you so much, you literally post these on every video and its so helpful, i genuinely applaud you for going out of the way to help others. nice to see other jazz enjoyers
Incredible cookin' band and director. great example of why big bands are fantastic entertainment. And, they are still growing into their art. fantastic!!
At the end of the day, the music is for the students to learn to love and play. That's why even if the quality of the bands differ from year to year, it isn't about an award or even competing to win. What is most important is the band's display of hard work, teamwork, and enjoyment of this music.
Rather than branding the winner of this festival as "The Best High School Jazz Band in the United States," perhaps the label "The Best High School Jazz Band at Playing the Music of Duke Ellington" is more appropriate. I'm still waiting for an "Essentially [Don] Ellis" jazz festival. New and fresh each year. Innovation rather than preservation. In the words of Derek Smalls of Spinal Tap ... "A preserved Moose."
Missed out on so much goling to Federal Way School District after 22 straight levy failures. I hope Seattle keeps music in mind as it makes their hard decisions about their neighborhood schools and horrible budget shortage.

Hi Teddy
2:34 Anyone know what song is that. I recognized it but can't remember. 😂

They are amazing but it will never be as good as last year 😔
No offense, but none of the years compare to 2019s
@@hughjayn1s the kids lost years of group practice, this is Seattle after all. They weren't in the same room until last year.
@@hughjayn1s Roosevelt 2019 might be my favorite Essentially Ellington band ever.
