Hi all,
I play first tenor in an amateur Big Band in The Netherlands (Q Big Band Delft). We recently played a gig in Rotterdam for the North Sea Round Town festival, which is a kind of warming up for the big and world famous North Sea Jazz festival. We played at an outside stage at the Noordereiland, with a lot of wind (which you can hear clearly on the clips!).
I would like to share three clips with you. I play a short solo in each of them. Sound- and film quality could be better, but's is just as it is! Here are the clips:
1. "I've Got The World On A String" (my solo starts around 2:05):
-
or
3. "You Go To My Head" in a tricky arrangement of Bill Holman (my solo starts around 4:00):
-
or
I think I know most of our (and my) weak and 'less weak' spots, but ofcourse any remarks are welcome!
