Quite excellent ensemble playing!

Love it, great Job. Hollywood is watching, and so is every song producer in the country.

Absolutely wonderful!

This band is so talented especially for a High School group!

Thanks all of you just lovely Regards Andrè Netherlands

If their rhythm section recorded a trio album, I would buy it!

Wonderful Saxes! And that drummer!

The young people playing their instruments are the real feature here rather than another director trying to grab the spotlight. Hooray for this director.

They really know how to Play …….

Fantastic band …

And What a band..

What a Drummer…

This is what music looks like - I'm talking to those primitive singers who produce crap but buy good merchandise and cars. I'm talking about the Arab style singers in Israel. Primitive vagabonds with no musical education

I can’t stop watching this video, the band is great, but Kai is out of this world. I really hope he is going into jazz studies in college.

very good

Smooth and elegant.

This arrangement really swings!! These young musicians are outstanding! Their music makes me feel good!!

Wow, this is so cool. I'm an old man and these young people make me very happy with their music. The Duke would be so proud. Apart from that - that drummer really swings.

I remember playing with these cats at a pinheads, that tenor is the best highschool pianist I have ever heard

I love these american college bands, so much talent - Duke Ellington would be proud.

😮 magnifique ! Très bon musicien,le saxophoniste est un cran au-dessus de la saxophoniste,il faut reconnaître qu’ils sont tous beaux et talentueux ! Merci 🙏

How wonderful to see these young people playing and enjoying music that remains awesome to this day. I was so very privileged to see most of the big bands when l was younger. I'm now in my 9th decade and have relocated from UK to the Philippines but still able to sit back and enjoy this fabulous music. Well done kids, just keep up your brilliant music.

Q bonito genial heroso

Outstanding! And all pieces are played from memory!

Kai’s solo was unbelievable

holy shit that piano

Why does the entire sax section have the same sax line? I assume it's the P'maruiat system 76

Dang, I was looking forward to hearing the next tune! What a great band with awesome dynamics! Lovin’ the saxes especially (I’m a sax player;^) with the nice section playing, beautiful lead alto tone and spirited tenor battle. You’re killin’ it folks!
