The WDR Big Band takes me back to a time when I was young and went to see your girlfriends on a Sunday evening. It also captures the setting during those times. I seem to move forward in time years later when you went to a lounge which played jazz music as you snd who you were with say snd talked. The relaxing part of what the WDR Big Band is playing are tunes whose melodies you can not identify with.

Beautiful!!

I'm more of a free jazz player but I love his quality of sound, his subtlety and his higher register. Thanks!

The sound of advanced harmonies being funneled through a swinging large or small ensemble replete with intelligent improvisation is an apex musical event only delivered by Jazz.

[@rafaelrey5365]

Genial.

[@paxwallacejazz]

This bassist! On the waltz near the end he stays dotted quarter Lafarro feel not walking 👍keeping the modern sophistication of the jazz waltz feel. I want this bassist.

Appreciating (and envying 😎) Mattis once again, at 8:53

[@WDRBIGBAND]

Why do you envy, Mattis?

[@ajbfwb]

@@WDRBIGBAND I've probably mentioned it before in other posts, but it's because he has one of the coolest trombone gigs on Earth. 🌏😎🌏
