How High The Moon / BFJO Takasago [HD]

[@mr.shepherdspie7958]

This does NOT sounds like a highschool jazz band, this sound professional, and they should be!

[@mittychao]

みんな凄い技量のある方たち。感動しています。羨ましい。

[@AnaMartinez-dm4ps]

Excellent performance congrats!! Love it

[@grodrigu100]

I can't believe the sound! It's amazing, just like a professional big band. Those four young girls are truly great trombone players.

[@schusterlehrling]

Look at it. It is an orchestra. Not just trumbones.

[@Microblitz]

We struggle to get players for our rehearsal big band, yet Japan can not only have a full band but a whole line of trombones. Not only that they are all very capable players.... NOT ONLY that they are all girls!..... If only that happened here.. Great job Girls show the boys hows how its done!

[@mr.shepherdspie7958]

We have a middle school jazz band, that's not a full band, but it has girls and boys in it. I am the only 6th grader, and I am the pianist.

[@DevonDandy]

In the UK we are far too obsessed with rock and pop, and it's mostly led by radio and the tyranny of 'playlists' which are predicated on the notion that popular music started on the 1st January 1960. Good music and our young people are the poorer for it.

[@mr.shepherdspie7958]

Well I'm not. I really love jazz

[@thomasd1667]

"How High The Moon" is an all time favorite song of mine. Great Performance! Thanks

[@alixcampbell7648]

Omg this is amazing. Why can't trombones everywhere play like this?

[@danmatakizawa]

This piece just came across my music stand and I only hope we can play it half as well as these kids! 本当にかっこいい！

[@jenserikarnoldsen3323]

[@Jtm7708]

The trombones are great, but the background trumpets are killing it!

[@johnbuckland626]

[@erdwest]

Amazing, beautiful!

[@josephdrbohlav5705]

If I were teaching 5th graders brand new to music and playing the trombone, this would be the inspiration for day 1 lesson.

[@WolfiePie]

This is fantastic! I need to learn the trombone 2 solo for a concert, and this is a perfect reference! Thank you for uploading this video! :D

[@kcr7860]

[@DevonDandy]

They sure know how to teach music in Japan.

[@LearnTheCode5734]

Devon Dandy not in Japan you dumn fuck

[@johnmagill3072]

Where do you think this is then?

[@DevonDandy]

Your ignorance is only matched by your foul mouth - Takasago, Soka, Saitama Prefecture, Japan

[@Ameriken91]

Dominique Smith keep doing what you do, throwing ad hominem attacks like that on the internet. It ultimately keeps me entertained. I love you people.

[@eustace8520]

And it was all thanks to the brilliant Americans from the 1920s-1950s. Glenn Miller and many more big band/orchestral groups from the late 1930s and early 1940s pretty much led to this kind of jazz. Thank you American musicians! Edit: I forgot to mention the legendary trumpet player: Louis Armstrong.

[@mr.shepherdspie7958]

I play trombone, and piano, and this the best high school (I'm guessing it's high school maybe collage) trombone I've herd. Normally it sounds a bit off tune. But this was GREAT!

[@mr.shepherdspie7958]

@A S well, I think Takoasago is a place in Japan, not exactly a high school, but it looks like they are young adults, or late teens. I could be very wrong though

[@mr.shepherdspie7958]

@A S mate, I thought you where asking "is Takoasago a high school" I didn't read it properly. Sorry. I don't know much about BFJO, because I'm irish, not Japanese (well, I live on eastern standard time, which is in the US). But ya. Have you done research on this, or are you part of the band? Maybe. But I know there are other teams, like team yoshikawa, and Ishida. But probably, the most famos, is Takoasago. I just love the music, it's pretty much my favorite type (I love jazz piano, like the Oscar Peterson trio). But I really love big band

[@mr.shepherdspie7958]

You seem to have lots of videos that you know around youtube, of these band players. They are very good, and I just can listen to them all day long. I love Glenn Miller (who plays trombone) and lots of these jazz composers. Then there is Duke Elington, and Fats Wallers, and Scott Joplin, who I think all of them played the piano. Especially Scott Joplin. I know how to play one of his most famos peices, maple leaf rag. It drives my parents crazy, because I play it so often. But I love all of these musicions, and I just enjoy all of them. I also love The Chefftans, who is an Irish band, that plays in the 70s. I can talk about music all day long, but I wont, because I don't want to drive you insane. But yeah!

[@mr.shepherdspie7958]

I'm also a fan of them, but I don't know as much as you do. But you know my fans (pretty much all of them are dead) like I just said.

[@mr.shepherdspie7958]

@A S oh yes, I think I have heard of that band in Japan, the one you mentioned that played a lot of Glenn Miller, but I haven't seen all their stuff. I'll have to go check that out. I have started learning The easy Winners, I might learn The Entertainer as well. That would be fun. I have a whole entire book of ragtime music (the original peices) of quite a few famous in their time, ragtime composers, one of which is Scott Joplin, and if I really wanted to (I don't) I could learn all of those songs. It was from my great Grandfather, called "81 piano rags" or something like that. I don't know what instrument you play, but maybe it will interest you, IDK. I don't know how I would get you to see it, seeing as it's a few hundred pages long, and I don't want to go broke buying loads of film, and having that developed, and made copys. That would be bad. But I'm just saying, I thought that book might interest you.

すげー高校生だな！

Mädchen, was seit Ihr gut, dass haut mich um.

[@mikeroten916]

wait, is that a TR180 at the end?

[@zeemane11]

I love how everything was great until that last note...that one trombonist was out of tune....i think it was the one on the right who looked at the others when the note was hit....lol but other than that it was great!

[@jagerardi]

Posted a long time ago, but I have to reply to set the record straight- that last not was NOT out of tune. They played a tritone on purpose. It's called the diabolus in musica ("the Devil in music.") It's an augmented fourth, and sounds very dissonant. It occurs in the C scale by playing C and F# together. (Though, the natural occurrence in the C scale is B-F.) Its solfege is ti-Fa, and should have a resolution to Mi. It's also the interval of automobile horns, which is why they sound so strident. ..Joe
