    Elena is a magnificent soloist. The other cats are all equally great, contributing to that rich sound. Drummer drives it, Christian highlights it, and the bass guy and guitar work together with the vibist. International feast!

      she really is incredible - the flute has never been an instrument I've particularly gravitated towards in jazz but she just makes me want to hear more and more and more.. absolutely gorgeous sound, and so young! very excited for what she has ahead of her.

    • @KickflipGnasty
      @KickflipGnasty 7 ปีที่แล้ว +38

      I don't think she's better than Christian or Corey by any means. He's playing stuff that's on par with Gillespie and Morgan. I think she sticks out because flute is a less common virtuoso instrument. No disrespect to her though, she's a fantastic musician.

  • @ernestlmorellsr
    @ernestlmorellsr 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    ....Man these young people are just great, no doubt in my mind that they all have their own professional musician that they have heard and would like to be in the same class with. There is no one who do not have a hero, even heroes have heroes...Dizzy,Miles, Louis Armstrong, Stanley Turntine,Duke Ellington, Count Basie, Benny Goodman, Chick Webb, Jimmy and Tommy, the Dorsey Bros,Lionel Hampton, Artie Shaw, Woody Herman, Glenn Miller,Fletcher Henderson,Sonny Greer, Cootie Williams, Dennis Chambers, Chris Dave, Tony Roaster Jr., Coleman Hawkins,Rex Stewart, Billy Cobblem, Buddy Rich, Buddy Miles,Johnny Lee Hooker, Eric Clapton, Stevie R. Vaughn ,Roy Orbinson, Merle Haggle, Roy Clark, all these musical heroes, had musical heroes of their own..So, if you hear someone sounding like or playing like someone you know , don't be so hard on them,Remember they have not yet find their own tonality? stay tune...

    There's a lot of great playing here - and listening. I find the drummers really exciting. The whole thing is exciting. The band maintains a great overall sound throughout. I love the sound of the two drummers...reminds me of Elvin.
    Interesting that the flutist is listed last by WBGO. Traditionally the wind soloists are *all* listed first - even if they are "only girls". I guest jazz culture hasn't changed that much. At least not at WBGO.
