Andante from "Andante et Scherzo" by Eugène Bozza - Saxophone Quartet

[@Saxologic]

I am REALLY liking how you guys are posting these full videos of the transition songs of the Saxophone standard. MAN the American Military band is something serious!

[@chandlerwong6386]

wow hello, cool seeing you here

[@parker9964]

Woah favorite yootoober

[@KarunoLeKarnal]

Breathtaking performance. If I closed my eyes, I'd have sworn hearing flute, saxophones, clarinets and english horns. Maybe even a bassoon. A skilled saxophonist can devellop such sonorities on his instrument... Very impressive. Thanks for sharing !

[@ArmyFieldBand]

Thanks!

[@mattj313]

The Bari solo is amazing I love this so much

[@bryanv.3630]

This is probably the best performance I've ever seen from saxophone players. This is proof the saxophone can be classical just as much as any other instrument.

[@alto2089]

Baritone player with that awesome circular breathing

[@AbnegationTranscendental]

The two first melody of the beginning are giving me shivers

[@braedenL29221]

i think its pretty baller that they have an extra set of saxophone just on stands

[@thierrywarot5792]

Merci chers amis américains pour cette superbe performance de très haut niveau toute en finesse et élégance. Dans les années 70 lorsque je faisais mes études de clarinette au conservatoire de Lille, Eugène bozza était directeur du conservatoire de Valenciennes à quelques dizaines de kilomètres de la . Je connais bien cette ville qui a formé de nombreux musiciens de talent.

[@JoseAlvarado-jf3jz]

I watch this video every day before I go to sleep. The way you guys play it is just so gorgeous. You guys really know how to work along one another. Keep up the good work and I wish to see more performances of this amazing quartet in the near future.

[@williamphillips6247]

Performed this in college with my group. I like your interpretations of tempi and your dynamic contrasts!

[@bassin615]

They are such spectacular players and this video sounds amazing, but nothing compares to hearing them live!!

[@eddyhr523]

I’m crying, it’s to beautiful.

[@wyndhleodumegwu253]

I do not have words to codify and express the beauty that is being shared by these wonderful and articulate musicians. Suffice it to affirm that they are exemplary in their performances.

[@JackBertelli]

Absolutely beautiful. Thank you gentlemen for giving me some listening pleasure and for your service!

[@miavukovic927]

I absolutely adore the Andante from this work, and you guys have executed it beautifully! Every note change and timbre change is so tight and together, makes for wonderful listening.

[@drewsmith3217]

WOW I would think this video would have over a million views, it's that good!

[@jdiegert]

Such fantastic work, and the players' names aren't even listed. The military doesn't deserve these world-class musicians...

[@aysarmarzuqi]

Such synchronisation. Couldn't ask for more!

[@jaykay1053]

Really lovely performance. I remember tackling bari in quartet in my 1st year at university. The breathing. The breathing. The breathing. :) Nice job, everyone though.

[@bobpremecz5429]

Excellent performance! One of the finest renditions on KZbin! Hope you also post more! Maybe the Scherzo? Maybe Bach? Handel? Or even some fun popular or jazz arrangements? The world needs more good sax!

[@johnlindstrom9994]

Amen!

[@williamechegaray542]

This is beautiful 😢

[@loubackoutside]

Just amazing! You guys are awesome...

[@tylerhascoolsocks8]

I aspire to have a tenor sound as clear and beautiful as that

[@timetoregroup2008]

So very, very good. Thank you, gentlemen. Looking forward to seeing the whole band soon in Wabash.

[@josephvasquez4157]

My ensemble played this and we got a one at state solo and ensemble! Thanks so much this video helped a lot!!

[@ArmyFieldBand]

Wow, congratulations! So glad this video helped!

[@johnlindstrom9994]

Gorgeous sounds, played with such sensitivity! Why doesn't the US Army send these guys all over the world instead of drones, bombs and other means of destruction??

[@Matt-mc5if]

John Lindstrom then everyone would be declaring war over who should keep them.

[@johnlindstrom9994]

It makes me proud to think that the USA Army has produced these guys!! Let them freely move around the World.

[@SaxandRelax]

The world would be a better place

[@jaroncooper7010]

Truly breathtaking

[@jimcurrie]

Great song. We use to play this song a quartet saxophone

[@jlperezfotopa8807]

Muy bueno para el oido y la mente, musica de la buena, un saludo.

[@lozla745]

So good. I love it.

[@Choadeymcgriff]

I see you Chris Blossom...sounds great.

[@Darkserpentes]

Still waiting for the full "xas". It sounds like you have the tightest, cleanest recording by far.

[@MarcoZarco]

Beautiful performance!

[@MrMattyHoff]

When is "Xas" going to be uploaded?

[@jackstott8134]

This chord makes me............. 0:31

[@spam_uel]

Please do a swing sax chart. That would be amazing!

[@ArmyFieldBand]

Good idea! We'll pass that along to our saxophonists.

[@黃建程-o7s]

你們是我的網老師喔…謝謝你們…

[@sopranomadness894]

Lovely soprano sax sound! Please tell me your setup.

[@DanielGoff527]

Thank you! I'm playing a Selmer Series III soprano with an S-80 C* mouthpiece refaced by Robert Scott, and Vandoren traditional #3.5 reeds. I also very much like Selmer's new Concept mouthpiece and may be switching to one in the near future.

[@xxcerealbowlxx8112]

Could you tell me what brand/model the baritone saxophone player is using? Thank you!

[@aadarshbalireddy2939]

xXCerealBowlXx I think they post their gear online on a PDF. Just search US Army sax quartet gear or something like that

[@passionatemelon6627]

2:15 wut just happened

[@2five3]

What mouthpiece is the soprano player using?

[@jazzmeister9383]

2five3 a Selmer concept and a versa ligature

[@junejuly5967]

Jazz Meister - it’s not a concept. it looks like an s80 or maybe even s90

[@DanielGoff527]

At the time of this recording I was playing on a Selmer S80 C** refaced by the late Robert Scott of Lansing, MI. BUT, a couple years ago I did indeed switch to a Selmer Concept mouthpiece.

[@Saucyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy]

Im a little late to the party, but what reeds do yall use?

[@saymayfire]

What model soprano sax is being used?

[@heaneymusic]

I've met these fine players in person, he plays a Selmer Series III.

[@carlinyohei]

What mouthpiece/ligature is that tenor player using, a selmer soloist? Amazing performance too of course.

[@trh326]

He’s probably using the gold plated ishimori ligature and a d facing S80

[@GohuYToff]

They play Selmer ?

[@ronbontz5053]

Where is this "Field Band" stationed? Nice job.

[@ronbontz5053]

Never mind. Just realized they are the DC Band.

[@ArmyFieldBand]

Hi Ron! We are stationed at Ft. Meade in Maryland, just outside of Washington, D.C.

[@ronbontz5053]

@@ArmyFieldBand Many moons ago I played in the Scott AFB field band as well as McGuire AFB, for a short time. Clarinet and Alto Sax. Would have loved to have played in something like this with this caliber of musicians. Thank you.

[@RyanVFX]

Where do you suggest I buy this sheet music from?

[@ArmyFieldBand]

+νєѕтα Have you tried a google search? There are several vendors that would sell music by Bozza

[@EmanSax03]

I wish my Tenor's C# wasn't so sharp!!!

[@XxBeastWTFxX]

wow

[@wibli]

yes, I am the dislike. sorry, I am tired of saxophone quartets trying to make a SAXOPHONE sound like something else. Bari = Cello, Tenor = bassoon, soprano = clarinet or oboe. As a personal preference I only like a classical sound on alto. The rest of the family they want to scream!

[@haon7272w]

That's pretty harsh to pretty much disdain thousands of musicians for their choice of playstyle. These four have amazing sound, even for professionals. They could play circles around you and your misguided opinion.

[@kinigit]

wibli So you prefer saxophones to play jazz or rock; that's fine. But don't dislike something on KZbin because it's not your preference. These guys are amazing. I went to school with Dan, the soprano player and he is one of the hardest working, most dedicated musicians I have ever met. What have you done that would impress us?

[@Fatalwolf587]

+kinigit I can see you're into marching band haha I'm playing this piece for solo and ensemble and it's really difficult with it being a level six, 7 being the highest also I'm sure you think it's cool if I told our staff for marching this year was one of the blue devil drum majors from this year's DCI someone from crown and a guy who was in bd in 1988 and 99 and won both DCI
