Sofrito Mongo Santamaria, conducted by Michael Mossman

[@mambisimobigband1017]

Hey all, we're back with a full album releasing this week! Very excited to announce that we went to the same studio last fall to record 7 more arrangements from the hand of Michael Mossman, who lead the project again. So if you are vibing to this, check out the latest single releases on our channel. One of the bands favorite arrangements by Mossman was the one on Mongo's "Afro Blue", check that out here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fJPbnmaQmNV2edk Let us know what you think and if you know some nice places to play live in your area in the comments! And oh yeah, there are again solo's from Andy and Yuliesky again for you to discover... ;)

[@ahmedajabi2654]

this trumpet solo is one of the most beautiful latin solos I've ever heard. So soulful!!!

[@nitram1491]

My Friend I TOTALLY AGREE!!! HE is a master trumpist and soloist. OMG that was AWESOME!!! I agree with you 1000%. Peace and Gratitude to you..

[@michaelrumery7233]

One of the best trumpet solos period - all genres 🎺 I have listened about 40 times already. Watch the solo transcription video you will not be disappointed

[@GTMOKID]

It's funny how so many Latin tunes have some food theme intertwined in the lyrics. Sofrito, manteca, salsa, azucar, on and on. What can I say, the aromas of spices and tasting of foods are so much a part of our culture. I Love it.

[@FreeTheUyghurs]

Yeah I mean when your food tastes that good, why not?

[@jaegertiger384]

LOVE how the horns SIT on the BACK OF THE BEAT, while the percussion holds the the rhythm absolutely steady !! Such a powerful performance !!!!!

[@nitram1491]

I couldn't agree more. You got some sharp ears and knowlegde of music and arrangments my friend. Peace

The trumpet and Trombone Solo is so outstanding their articulation on the notes are just Mind Blowing....

The trombonist reaction on the trumpet solo is priceless!! 🔥

That was beautiful. All you need in life is a little sofrito, that's it. Sprinkle some seasoning into your life, and watch how beautiful it tastes!

Great ensemble. Trumpet / trombone solos wow. Amazing horn section right rhythm section. Great.

[@mr_petabyte]

(just notes for myself) 0:13 - 4 bars: Piano Intro 0:21 - 8 bars: A section (2x) 0:52 - 8 bars: B section 1:06 - 4 bars: Break 1:15 - 4 bars: Piano oszinato 1:29 - Trumpet solo 1:58 - Vocal intervention 2:29 - 16 bars: C section

[@KinaIchi]

For the vocals while the trumpet is soloing you would call that ‘vocal intervention’ think of it like a bass to keep everyone together.

[@mr_petabyte]

@@KinaIchi thanks for that information, I really appreciate that. I just wanted to take notes for myself and some friends but now I learned something new, that's great!

[@Enryu_uyrnE]

@@mr_petabyteare you somehow able to play this? Where did you find the score???

[@mr_petabyte]

@@Enryu_uyrnE I didn't find any score, you'd have to play it by ear. There might be a score to this piece on the internet somewhere, but not of this exact version. If you only want the score of the solo parts, there are some transcriptions on KZbin

[@azxtnt]

@@Enryu_uyrnEthere’s now a score video on Hal Leonard’s KZbin channel if you search sofrito arranged by Michael Philip Mossman, it’s slightly different sheet music but the audio is the same and lines up

Ich habe mit Yulieski neulich gespielt. Und wieder bestätigte sich eine große Erkenntnis. Die Besten sind bescheiden und nett und freundlich. Keine Allüren nichts. Ein netter und symphatischer Kollege. Einfach nur klasse. Die Arroganten unter den Musikern sind mittelmäßig. Jasper van´t Hof genauso bescheiden.

[@KinaIchi]

Very well done, one of the best big bands I’ve seen in awhile. The Trumpet player is very talented on point, blunt yet formal, rapid brogretion in difficulty, and in tune. As well as the Trombonist, I love scale inspired solos, a very classical take on a big band swing set. You don’t see that very much. Overall to everyone, we’ll done!

Wow! Great great job, very good interpretation, with bend effects in trumpets and trombons, which really gives life and humanity for this - once again - great interpretation. Tight cohesion and a perfect sound recording, mixing and mastering. We can hear everything, that's just a jewel for my hears. Congratulations, masters, everything is clear and perfectly audible.
