Billly Test’s playing is so creative! This is one monster solo… and he dances on the bench while performing it! Simply outstanding.
Hi John! True!
Definitely WDR is a World Class Jazz Big Band. The Bob's (My favorite saxophonist) arrangement, and super solos of Johan and Billy are unique and amazing..!! The sound and video are fantastic. Long life to WDR.!!

What a piano solo!!!!
I noticed they look at the music sheet while soloing ' is the solo written out or are they just looking at the sheet to keep track on where they are?

I have to give a big shout out to the sound engineers, this a really beautiful soundscape, every detail captured perfectly, presented without fuss, without adding or taking anything away. Technology changes but the artistry remains, exactly as it should be. So big thanks from an audiophile.
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I wish I had your band behind me when I wrote that Jump Jive and Stretch Song !
Flows like silk, truly the cream of big band jazz. I love the video, makes such a difference to see the musicians playing.
Thank you for your kind words, Fred!
Bob... Are you sure you weren't born in Brazil?
I felt at home! hehehe 🤩

Bob... Você tem certeza que não nasceu no Brasil?
Me senti em casa! hehehe 🤩

Background music for documentary films!
¡Bien sabroso! ¡Vaya Bob & the WDR Big Band! So great to hear your "New Mambo" in the hands of this fantastic band. EVERYONE sounds so terrific. Tremendous solos by Johan and Billy - and, as always, the superb ensemble playing. Postings like this set such a high standard for everyone!!! In the end, I'm just a fan like all those who consistently visit these pages. Bravo y'all!!! - Steve - New York, NY
🙌Steve!
It’s killer, fellas. Would be lovely to see a female in the band someday.
Hi Jacob’s! Karolina Strassmayer plays alto sax in the WDR BIG BAND. She is on a sabatical at the moment...
I really admire your deep knowledge about the big band´s personal!! 🤣
Shannon Barnett was in the trombone section for a while
My soul is just blessed with this beautiful composition, thank you so much Mr Bob Mintzer .
Hi Youri! Thank you for watching us!
Very clean ;)
Played this number in high school. Trombone 3 part. Loved it
👍👍👍 Adrian!
Maestro Bob Mintzer, wonderful author and fantastic arranger! Spectacular orchestra! Amazing soloists! I felt a great emotion from the beginning to the end of the song! A thousand thanks !
🙌 Bruno!
Eargasm!
Shame that after all these years, Bob hasn't figured out what a mambo is. Apparently has no clue what clave is. Stop writing "Latin" charts if you have no idea what Latin music is.
Hi fijimorgan! "New Mambo" ...is the name of the piece. The WDR BIG BAND plays jazz music. We appreciate comments that follow the Nettique and respect that taste can not be compared.
Perhaps it's called New Mambo for a reason.
Dieses Video schaue ich jetzt ungefähr zum eintausendstenmale... immer wieder sehr erfrischend! Danke! 🙏🏼
Hi Roy! Das ist schön zu lesen!
Super!!!!!!!!!
👍
The solo by Bill Test was **spicy!!!!**
You know that you're cooking when the horn section is dancing along with your solo in their seats!!!
Highlight of high school was playing Mintzer’s “Computer”
It's the two-handed licks with the parallel lines and the polyrhythmic chords (which reminded me of Lyle Mays) that got me in Billy's solo. Great tune and amazing playing by all.
Thank you, Wayne!
I miss Karolina!
Ahh brilliant! I miss that Yellowjackets lineup with Mintzer, Haslip, Ferrante and Kennedy. Seriously enjoyed Yellowjackets with WDR BB, the performance with Nguyen Le.
WDR musicians are absolutely top of their craft, it never ceases to amazed me that such a large number of high calibre musicians can exist at one place at one time!
Hi DT's! Thank you for your kind words!
Amazing performance with the great minserian sounds from the ensemble and superb soloists
💝
AAA such a beautiful piece! By coincidence it was posted on my brothers birthday, 20 OCT!
👍Kenny!
Is this the best big band in the world or what?❤ I’d like to see a video from the sound crew. About the preamps and whole idea of recording this. Because it sounds amazing!
👍 deetgeluid!
What a pleasure to have such good sound and visual quality, and it's really subtly arranged in each piece! Superb discovery, well done to the team!
Thank you, we will tell our video and sound team!
Beautiful from the first seconds!
Andy Hunter - silver trombone?
Qué arreglos, qué solistas, qué belleza!
🙌 Aure!
Hans Dekker on drums. He plays these charts so smooth and clean with great feel. Love how he pushes the orchestra.
Hi Gregory!

Hi Ryan! Hans Dekker is on drums!
I cannot believe how much this arrangement sounds like Mintzer! This sound is so recognizeable
Smooth latin jazz! Who's on congas?
Sebastian Nickoll is playing on congas.

De nada, Àlex!
This makes me want to dance! 🥰💃🏻
Hi IrisvS_76! What else is holding you back? Just do it!
@@WDRBIGBAND Oh i do, but dancing alone is not quite the same. A good dancing partner would be better! 🤩
True, IrisvS_76!
Una Big Band fantastica 👏👏👏🎶
Obrigado, Verio!
Meravigliosi!!!❤️❤️❤️
🙌 Maurizio!
Compare the horns to the Slonaker Big Band. WDR has sloppy timing, especially with the saxophones.
An entire big band playing Jazz, and not one single non-white musician ?!?
🤔
it’s a German band though. Literally from Germany
Hi Slothmode! The members of the band are coming from Austria, Netherland, Sweden, Ireland, USA and Germany. ...
@@slothmode3590Oh....my mistake.
I just saw Bob Mintzer and assumed they were American, because he is.
Hi Ice-Wight! No problem!
There is not enough compression on everything in this mix. Unlistenable.
Exceptional, brilliant solos by Billy and Johan help bring us up into the clouds, to what is already the peak of perfection! Totally fab!
Hi Martin! Thank you!
Cool 😎😎😎
👍 Uwe!
