I'm a percussionist in my high school band, but I'm also the bassist for our jazz band. We're playing this song as part of our winter concert later this week, and I couldn't be more excited. I'm more of a guitarist in general, and I'm fairly new to jazz bass so learning this song was definitely tough, but I finally managed to nail it today.
Ahh this brings back so much memories from middle school... I still remember the fingerings too... can’t believe I’m graduating this year already.. time went by so fast 😅
I'm the Trombone 3 in my school's Jazz Band.I've never heard it but I immediately fell in love with it. Finally,I'm Japanese. so my English may be wrong.but I love it and the feeling of love for music is universal!
@@spacefaring_squid_ I was just thinking back to when I was in school ..the teacher may have added for extra effect or to keep everyone synchronized ..but it does sound very cool!
Im one of the bassists (the only one that actually plays though, or is actually present for HALF THE MEETS-), and listening to this helps a lot with figuring out my piece, playing this for my fall concert and am pretty excited :)
I have to fill in for drums in jazz band for our winter festival this year, I just got the music. The festival is tomorrow. We're playing 4 songs other than this one. 🫥
I've only played mabe 3-4 months of trombone and we're already starting to learn this I DON'T EVEN KNOW HALF THE NOTES but my teacher said it's for the end of the year so I have time... I think
I like this arrangement better than Maynard's for some reason. What I miss here is a flute - played in a band that added flute to the woodwinds, and really added a great texture.
this arrangement has weirdly shaped my understanding of big band and jazz over many years
I played birdland as a joke so much that my friend said it is the rickroll of our band but dude this song slaps harder than my dad
My band played this song at our last concert it was last song
The tambourine player is OUT OF CONTROL and ON FIRE
I’m a bassist in our jazz band and we’re performing this in our winter concert and at our local airport.
this is the official anthem of our jazz programme each year at the last concert both jazz bands play the song to pass the torch to the younger kids
i would love to play this song but i'm a clarinet and now i'm sad

Facts

Tuba on bass guitar part. Crazy octave jumps 🤪
I love the bass part. I would reccomend having a look at the Maynard Ferguson bass part. It really slaps.
Yup I play bass guitar and have played this, it is very fun and sounds very nice
We played this in marching band my freshman year of high school.
I’m the piano player in my middle school jazz band, love my part for this :P it’s amazing song!

My schools jazz band is playing this for our fall concert today can't wait to play this
Good luck. Waht instrument do you play
Playing this in my music band
I think the score calls for cowbell at the beginning but otherwise this is perfect.
We are playing this exact arrangement, and I don't remember seeing anything about a cowbell but I may be wrong.

If u can play this up an octave, u a beast

@@bensosnowski I get the 24 hour cool down as well aha
I used to because I heard another arrangement where it was up an octave. It just always sounded cool to me.
I have to fill in for drums in jazz band for our winter festival this year, I just got the music. The festival is tomorrow.
We're playing 4 songs other than this one.

i just started being a bassist for this song and goddamn this instrument is hard
I couldn't think of my own drum solo for that end bar so I just play the one from this recording! haha
I heard this in my schools jazz band when I was 6th grade and I fell in love with it sadly this year I’m not in jazz band
I've only played mabe 3-4 months of trombone and we're already starting to learn this I DON'T EVEN KNOW HALF THE NOTES but my teacher said it's for the end of the year so I have time... I think
Tuned percussionist. Doing this for my high school band. Definitely a bop, gonna enjoy jamming to this one.
Playing this on bari for the Lionel Hampton Jazz Festival
We did this song and we got superiors
played this for marching band, its fun to play
i play trombone 1 on this and i love it sm
Sophomore trumpet player here, I'm playing 2nd bone on this. Pretty easy but REALLY FUN.
I love how trombone 4 gets to play the bassline. As a bass trombone player, i find it really cool
Imagine being those 5 people who disliked this
take your Tylenol 🤓
Bass record for me 1.75x speed hoping to get 2x soon.
