Jazz Band Vs Concert Band: Stereotypes, Fails, and Comparisons

[@Skelly_Cat]

Hehe I actually go to that school now and am in both bands! To clarify, Jazz band is a lot more fun but it starts at 7 am, and the music is harder. Concert band is kind of boring unless you're doing a march and have a fun bass part. Keep up the good playing and remember to practice!

[@SchoolBandOrchestra]

I'm a big fan of the jazz band too, but many students only have Concert Band, so I try to choose the most enjoyable music and have as much fun in those classes as possible. All music is awesome! (Including orchestra!) 🎉

[@thepinkelephant2520]

Same!! My Jazz Band’s also a zero period so 7 am, too! I’m in Concert Band as well but it’s the intermediate band.

[@Skelly_Cat]

@@thepinkelephant2520 SAME!!!

[@Username5930-m7s]

My jazz period is 4th period so 10:19 is when jazz band is for us

It’s crazy because in my school I can hear the trombones in jazz way more than I can hear them in concert. Keeping mind there’s one trombone in jazz and he’s also in concert so idk how he gets quieter

[@DarkDish0]

In my school the trombones also go crazy in jazz band but in concert band they are quiet

[@alex_exists]

Well in my band it's because out band director tells us we're "blasty" when we play the tiniest bit loud in concert band.

[@hichewies]

@@alex_exists u gotta keep balance in mind for actual music. in jazz, balance doesn't really matter

As a bass player I feel disappointed that concert band bass was not included ( it is rare though )

[@mymo_in_Bb]

This guy seriously said concert F for tuning a jazz band 💀

[@SchoolBandOrchestra]

Hi mymokol4399 - I see we have a jazz pedagogy expert here - thanks for the comment! Now that I think of it, I always use Concert Bb and Concert A (for saxes) in jazz band, but for this video it worked to have both ensembles play the same tubing note. 😊

[@mymo_in_Bb]

@@SchoolBandOrchestra Of course! I see that it was better to use the same note, even if it's not accurate. Also, I'm curious: Concert A for the saxes? Why is that? (I'm genuinely curious.) We always use concert Bb for all the instruments except flutes, who use a concert A. Why would saxes, for whom concert Bb is a C and a G, use a concert A?

[@alejandrogutierrez1297]

@@mymo_in_BbConcert A for tenor saxes is B, B is a stable note for the middle octave and top octave. Concert Bb, C for tenors is unstable for new players for that top octave C, I personally tune to both Concert Bb and A, I prefer A concert because it’s really stable. Same Can be said for altos and Bari, Concert A, F sharp for Altos and Bari is the most stable note for these horns for both octaves.

[@mymo_in_Bb]

@@alejandrogutierrez1297 I kinda don't get why B and F# would be more stable than C and G, I play tenor and bari and certainly never noticed that these notes would be more stable, quite the opposite (this is a genuine question by the way)

[@CrystalClawGaming]

As a jazz (2 years) AND concert band (4 years) jazz is so much more fun. (Jazz) You can tell who is actually more into band, and you have to audition, meaning it’s the best of the crew, it’s also usually the older years of the grades so you have more experience. (also just way more fun) (Ima a trombone btw) and concert band, I really feel those ‘be softer’ like what. Then jazz ‘LOIDER C’MON I WANNA HEAR THAT’

[@Overlycomplicatedswede]

For a middle school drummer that kid is really good as a bass trombonist in high school I think jazz band is the most fun Love from Sweden

[@LucasRobison-c9b]

My director loves Randall Standridge, but we've never played Not Alone. I'm not a huge fan as a clarinet but I love what it represents.

[@EnbyBee]

I love how the solo for concert band was fragile. I did that as my solo in 7th grade concert band, and I’m still obsessed with it now. I kinda just realized I’ve played all of the concert songs in this video, so I guess concert band might be a little generic, but whatever

Why is this so true, as a new 6th grader in concert band (trumpet) and having a brother who is in jazz, I feel like jazz just has all the fun tho I just learned that jazz has to created their own solo, sad.

[@Le4ann3]

Did I hear the thunderer for a second or am I just old and hear Sousa a lot in my highschool years 👀 (Probably not, I just want to flex that we played the thunderer at my middle school concert and played stars and stripes forever in our show ‼️‼️)

[@mauriliopalacio907]

In jazz I play Alto and in concert Bass Clarinet both are great for experience.

[@SchoolBandOrchestra]

You are my kind of musician: double-duty!

[@건희의블레어의재미]

This is awesome

[@TheManOfJazz291]

I wish my middle school had a jazz band

[@whatcommsmusic]

Gold! Another winner.

[@NapalmSticksToChildren]

I think part of the reason i like jazz band so much more than concert band is because my parts are actually technical and not the same note on quarters changing every four measures. (tenor sax here)

[@FruityPebbles-420]

Tenor parts were horrendously boring for me in high school. I doubt that has changed in 23 years.

[@TheBabyInYellow-xo6fp]

Lol yeah if you play any kind of saxophone (especially tenor or bari) you’re really gonna wanna join jazz band

[@Ancient16-r7y]

1:37 omg so real (i play first alto in jazz band and i used to play first alto in concert band, i play oboe in concert band now)

Jazz is better than concert!

[@hichewies]

only applies in high school. symphony orchestras and concert bands clear jazz bands by MILES after hs. meanwhile, most of the kids in hs concert band are just there for the credit, while jazz has the ppl who want to play instruments
