I cant beleive, I love JAPAN and its talented kids,

[@Dodger0103]

You better believe it. Incredible performance and dedication to play at that high standard in a short space of time. I would love to say thanks 🙏 to this kids for making smile listening and watching. The production line just keeps rolling them out, like most things they make year on year. Hence being the third riches nation in the world.

Kids love it, l love it, and the saxes are wonderful. Tx for this great talent!

[@BillBenzon]

Strong trumpet soloist.

[@Dodger0103]

I have been waiting for them to do that number and my wish came true. What a beautiful rendition and so very very close to Basie’s version, I am sure he would have loved it. And the little bet fun at the end with one more time was brilliant. Thank you BFJO, that made pass a few tears 😭 of joy.

Welp, if this is a high school they beat the crap out of my high school band. Well done everyone. Nice to see the Count is still alive and kicking.

[@charlesbarry6730]

Reminds me of the Count Basie arrangement.

「パリの四月」1986年月24日、25日ニューヨークにてレコーディングされたカウント･ベイシー･オ­ー­ケ­ストラのバンド結成50周年記念のアルバム（リーダー：フランク･フォスター）の中のSide1の2曲目の­曲ですね。 全体的にもっとテンポを遅くオーバーアクションの裏ノリにするとベイシー･サウンドになるのかな。 トロンボーンのソロはソフトなホンワカ感が欲しいですね。 トランペットのソロは高音域担当だけあってフレーズを良くコピーされてますね。 全セクションでのソリはダイナミックで大変素晴らしい！！！。 正しくベイシー。 One more time！
