An authentic jazz orchestra!!!!! I'm so glad of know that orchestras like this exist even in the 21st century. We need orchestras like this now more than ever.
Mr Nichols and your Orchestra are fantastic, extraordinary the sound is identical of Paul Whitemann. The trumpet Solo is of new Bix . I'm Trumpet player, Bandleader of Dixie Swingers Jazz Band of Lindoia, SP-BRAZIL 🇧🇷. I'm fan of Bix,also we play several themes of Bix in my Band. I'm subscribe in your Chanel of UA-cam day your videos. Thanks and Best Regard from Lindoia, SP-BRAZIL 🇧🇷. May 5th,2020 - at 13:01 hrs.
I can't recall a recording of this tune in which the melody as written by the composers is played. The first chorus is usually - as here - a transcription of Tram's solo on the famous recording with Bix.
Vince Giordano and the Nighthawks put this to shame. On the Jean Goldkette Project you can here the action on the brass as they wind down. It’s pure bliss.
I was messing around with Tram's melody on both c-mel and alto, and have to say: everyone lists him on c-mel for the canonic recording with Bix, but I really think that he played alto on that cut (as here). I'm assuming the original was semi-improvised (ornamented melody), and if you think of it that way, it lays perfectly on alto -- by which I mean all the note sequences are ones that would naturally come to your fingers if you are ad-libbing around a melody. Yes, it's perfectly playable on c-mel if you read the notes, and not even difficult, but to me it did not feel NATURAL as ad-lib. The little embellished figures hit chromatics and cross the register break in ways that are just awkward enough that someone actually improvising them on saxophone would not do that, unless you had a chart in front of you telling you to play those exact notes. On alto, it all simply flows.
Atticus... thanks a Lot for send me your vídeos. I'm Trumpet player, Bandleader of Dixie Swingers Jazz Band from Lindoia SP, Brazil. Superb . ..amazing Keith Nichols...please If you have the contact of Mr. Schumm,I like of maintain a contact . TKS again. Happy New Year.
Somehow, it all sounds more spaced out than on the historical recording by Tram and Bix. It's the same with the Whiteman tunes. This is not to imply I didn't like it tremendously, bzt do you think you could get as dark and "mysterious" a tone from the orchestra as on original despite the more modern recording equipment?

Ben and Mary in Ohio very much enjoying your music thank you very much!
❤😂🎉 Music like this little friend Lori And Jim from Ohio, USA
Those last notes by Andy Schumm were so emotional! Loved every minute of this performance, thank you for sharing it!
What a beautiful arrangement. Giving the tune to the saxophones is surprisingly effective.
A lot of international talent and Andy fabulous as usual!
Unbelievable!!!!! Amazing!!!
Beautiful recording and faithful to the original Beiderbecke recordings. Thank you.
Just wonderful
Just fantastic!: sounds so much like the classic original which is no easy feat
Great stuff. Keith Nichols is superb.
It's fantastic! Love it!
Muy buena versión, un sonido fantástico y una gran violinista y hermosa mujer Emma Fisk, la primera en el lado izquierdo.
A brilliant rendition, love it!

Was that Bix playing the coronet solo ? Must have been because Frankie Trumbauer followed with a sax solo

Not one wrong note of three ladies! Mr. Nichols => the OUTRO could have been nice for the THREE VIOLINS!
Granpa referred to this in hs poetry of musi!.
who the heck votes this down? And surely they did "Sorry"…I need my bass sax fix
dammit, now all I do is wait for the bass sax…

What? No C-Melody sax? Kinda' dis-respectful of Tram's memory, ain't it?
