Hey Guys and Gals. This is my first official "video" that I actually took the time to fully arrange and edit etc. I enjoyed the process and learned a ton. The 5 part harmony contrafact at the end I was really proud of. Anyway ... check it out and I hope you dig it.

Special thanks to my buddy Mark Sterbank that recorded the other tenor part as well as the soprano and tenor I on the soli.

That's just too much fun! The only thing is you are a bit playing over each other in some moments, if one of you holds back a little and let's the other do his improv and then switch over it will be less "nervous" and easier to follow.
And that is not meant to take away anything from the clip, I really enjoyed it, especially the 5 part harmony contrafact, that was really great!

This is really awesome! Thats one heck of an arrangement! You two really vibe together! Great swinging sound and awesome playing! Love the way you guys sounded together on tenors, and the 5 parts at the end was awesome - If I had tried to sync those, it'd be a mess!

Trust me, syncing the audio and video was a nightmare, but I figured out some tricks for next time. Also, just the video editing in general was such a learning curve. But worth it.

Glad you enjoyed it!

Thanks for watching! It was fun!

I know what you mean about playing around each other and both being busy. The last chorus got a little excitable, but the vibe was there so I rolled with it. Tried to adjust the audio of one track lower to be more of an "accompanying" part. Actually, I could blabber on and on about how I think of it artistically and how I got to this, but it really doesn't matter much! You said the main thing. It's fun and that's what I wanted to have. Thanks!
