First chorus, a "tenor" sound, before she moves to the alto. The tenor sound had set the mood for this oh so beautiful song. Karolina, Perpignan awaits you!
An elegant alto solo by a very accomplished musician wedded with one of the best jazz bands on the planet. Great performance Karolina and the crew of the WDR Bigband.
Very interesting tenor tone at Part A of the song, then flourishing into a legit alto tone. Complete control of technique and beautiful improv. Congrats Karolina!
Another marvelous treatment by Karolina Strassmayer. Her lower octave on the first chorus sounds much like a tenor. Lovely sub tone work! I don’t have anymore platitudes I can give her playing. Her playing is often like the late Phil Woods. Her playing is simply magnificent!
I can find no parody whatsoever between Karolina's playing and Phil woods, other than she is a fabulous Alto Player. Most definitely with her own Style.
I can ' see you now ! And hear you ' now ! Absolutely " wonderful ' cheers to you all , from. ( Wales ' England ). - p 'S / what a. Fabulous " sax tone quality " you have " Carolina " .
To get a sub tone like hers, which is impressive, open your throat, use a relaxed embouchure and keep a constant stream of air moving. Having a good reed doesn't hurt, either!
… dass ich das noch erleben durfte ..so muss das klingen und nicht anders … sage ich als NICHTsaxer. Das grenzt (sorry) bereits an Beischlaf am Instrument. Bin hin und weg.
To timmo491: I suspect she is reading the alto orchestra part to know what the band is doing and when she should be playing. Not something she might play. She is too great a jazz musician to be playing a written out solo. She is improvising her part except when she is playing with the orchestra.

And what a pleasure Karolina takes on listening and playing. World class and an example of musicianship!
Can’t stop listening to this!
Impossible to get enough of Karolina and her sweet Alto/Tenor soul.
Can't get enough of Karolina and her musicianship!

She is an excellent sax player and beautiful too.
Her technique is world class, but that tone is out of this world.....
Stunning! Strassmayer is a marvelous alto player. Clearly one of the top players. Lyrical and melodic playing!
absolutely beautiful playing, creativity, expression, musicality; great big band arr. 5star
The gorgeous arrangement is by Michael Abene, and Karolina soloes incredibly beautiful, getting at times a tenor sound out of her alto.
WOW......WHAT TONATION AND CLARITY. WONDERFUL !!!!
Wonderful sax playing!
....and I love the muted brass section painting mood.
Karolina , the QUEEN OF SAX.
Fabulosos 👏👏👏👏👏🌹🌹🌹🌹❤️❤️❤️❤️😘
Gorgeous. Thank you Karolina. Such a pleasure to listen to you.

Ricardo Moraes-Pinto great analysis! Tenor tone segueing into that glorious alto tone...
A Masterpiece. Miss u guys.
She's definitely one of the best alto right now, tasty sound and phrases!

Beautifull Caroline Ack

That's a big mouthpiece she is using.
Arranged by Michael Abene

Sure remind me of Phil Woods.
ESTOU FAZENDO UMA SELEÇÃO DAS MUSICISTAS PARA MOSTRAR NO FACE!! TODAS CHEGAM A "OFENDER" OS MARMANJOS...
non sapevo che ci fossero donne musiciste brave---ajajajajajajaj
Never played this but its a beautiful tune. Wish she wasnt reading it always spoils it for me.

She looks like Greta Garbo
irre arraigment! hat mir dope gefehlt
What a gorgeous tone! And a lovely arrangement. Superb playing by the band, as always.
