Ryan Kisor - Concerto for Cootie

Ryan Kisor and the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra play the Duke Ellington composition Concerto for Cootie, live at the Lincoln Center.

[@JonErikKellso]

Bravo, Ryan--just beautiful!

[@kylefrazier2349]

@TheFresh Trumpet. This song actually came before "Do Nothin' Till You Hear From Me". Duke originally wrote this song to feature his lead trumpet player Cootie Williams, hence Concerto for Cootie. Later on it was given lyrics by Bob Russel. Both compositions are amazing pieces of music and art.

One of Duke Ellington's classics. Well done.

[@anthonygibes1411]

Please never take this video down

[@inf1nity]

What a great sound from Ryan!

[@ekcentrik]

Beautiful solo by a young Ryan Kisor

[@Minasian]

The piece is by Duke Ellington. "Concerto for Cootie" or also known as "Do Nothing 'Till You Hear From Me". The LCJO has a publishing company selling their transcriptions of all these old gems.

@nickheck that is definetly not a bucket. most buckets are attached over the bell and do not touch the interior at all. the mute under the plunger is called a pixie mute

[@basilhendricks788]

My favorite lead trumpet

[@SKBottom]

Bravo, Ryan!

[@lonislonisloins]

Best 3rd trombone part ever.

[@rpoole444]

KILLIN!!!

[@HK83IE]

there's not a better jazz trumpet player in the business today.

[@HectorGallegosmusic]

@JSARogers I asked myself the same question! Why do we do that? LOL I like Wynton's creativity. These two dudes are both awesome in their own right.

[@maxigoodvibes]

so niiiiiiiiice

[@KevTheYoungMusicGeru]

@wabbotttt he's just movin to the groove man

[@MariaSemenova1410]

как будто человеческий голос поет блатную песню :)

[@PrincessJayseff]

damn. looks like were playing this tune

[@bigeman25]

Blow your horn, man, that was fabulous!

[@sigmaclass]

It's called a "pixie" mute. Its kind of like a straight mute, but a little less buzzy. Helps make you sound really dirty!

[@darvinm]

does anyone have the "big train" segment from that same concert?

[@AndreiKalashnikov]

) Klasse )

[@peytonjmusic]

Wynton's jchillin in the back haha

[@Dimmify]

@jerec576 kinda like Maynard Ferguson in the stan kenton orchestra

[@MusicalMuppet]

haha thas awsome. looks like its a copperbottom staight muste + a plunger mute.

[@prmade]

when was this video recorded? thanks for the kisor, more please?

[@kokakluciic]

Its Wycliffe Gordon

[@JSARogers]

@HK83IE Ryan or Wynton?

[@gallo18]

That could be a pixie mute with a plunger.

[@darvinm]

unfortunately it is long. is there a way to break it up into parts? that performance is one of my favorites of lcjo. i have it on vhs but i have played it to death literally.

[@TheFreshTrumpet]

Omg is this "Do Nothin' Till You Hear From Me"? I played this in Jazz Band. One of my favorite songs. Nver thought to use a plunger for it.

[@benlepsch2107]

TheFreshTrumpet this is concerto for cootie

[@kdfan]

he was only about 24 at the time...a serious bad cat.

[@nintendofreakXD]

1 guy.... 1 freakin guy disliked this... wuttuh chump!

[@seniag143]

what kind of mute is that under the plunger??

[@Alperunal80]

pixie

[@JSARogers]

@JSARogers Terence Blanchard? No one can truly say. They play different trumpets. If I had to go to hell I'd take Wynton with me because he's great at jazz and classical/baroque.

[@wabbotttt]

What is Wynton doing there? 1:30

[@garyfoster3854]

Wynton is the leader of the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra.

[@Alperunal80]

boss

[@HK83IE]

@Trombonechess WELL I THINK ITS SAFE TO SAY THAT RYAN IS THE BETTER 'JAZZ' MUSICIAN...

[@leoshephard]

Yes, but it's kind of long to post here... 30 minutes at least.

[@DAVIRU84]

Кто? Так, может?

[@gimps42]

[@mattrmpt]

HAHAH....try ...and this is a WILD guess....st. mute plus a plunger??? any takers?

[@Aught6]
