[@insidiouskamikaze6772]

That bass solo was so nasty I freaking love it

[@timfrench1295]

It’s the piano, the bass player’s’ stank face, 🔥🔥🔥 the clarinet player’s squalls and trills, and to mention the drummers’ nostalgic brushwork for me!!! I love it all! ❤️❤️❤️

[@netomusic_br]

I mean.. The reason I started playing a musical instrument was first to play the instrument the sound and magic of music, second, to meet girls (not gonna lie) and third to make the stank face… I’m absolutely in favor of the stank face..

I have a questions why dont they have sheet music?

[@andrewk1938]

People that are in jazz are expected to memorize all the notes. Aswell as their improvisation

It’s the requirement for the contest

4:14 why is the dude in the back judging so hard

[@KCIM.]

those are head nods and faces of stank brotha

[@reedharvey3793]

I think its his version of stank face, not a disagreement/disappointment face

Pretty sure it’s more of a “dayum” than a judgement face

the trumpets look so funny and ngl i dont like it but its probably because i dont like loud fast spitty jazz like that

[@labonnemedia]

I guess Duke Ellington stole from himself lol, this is like 90% the same as Creole Love Call, lol.

[@michaelbavarian]

Love the bass, piano and clarinet. Love the dancing conductor. Trumpets straight up awful, destroying the vibe.
