Such a pleasure to hear these two great trombone players make music together
Mr. Fontana's style, technique, and beauty in playing lives on in Bela's playing. Keep that Fontana bone sound and technique going! God really gave Fontana and Bela such wonderful musical gifts.
wonderful, as always, MR Fontana!
Bela and Carl are great together. I really like the music put on YT by Bela. TNX
Carl is one of those players, like Clifford Brown, that never played a bad solo. Every damn one was a pleasure to listen to because of its melodic nature.
nice version of this lovely song classy playing from a classy group..mr fontana was a trombone great..many thanks.
Thx for posting this...a delight to hear The Great Carl Fontana in any setting!
Bela holds his own here, marvellous playing.
Nice work Bela! Swingin' side. Must've been great fun playing with Carl. You sounded great!
Jeannie, We trombonists of yesterday and today: We know the true beauty of sound and technique. Bela's passing on our heritage as trombone players. Please listen to Frank Rosolino, my ultimate favorite, no disrespect to Carl Fontana intended. Signed, Jeff. PS: Peace with a swing, sometimes bop or funk; musoc today is like; get out another roll of hay bailed sized toilet paper.
Carl Fontana integrou a fabulosa orquestra d Stan Kenton. Grande Trombonista.
If I had really understood how great these guys are, I would have never taken up the trombone and opted for quantum physics!!!!
Carl Fontanas name is mispelled several places on this item.. Great Music
@NanBayKid1 Thanks, I made a mistake. Off cours I know Carl's name. I'll fix it soon.
Pure music and pure joy! See below in comments: My Alias is Dick Whittington1000 on UA-cam. I've got atleast 3 previous comments on this download because I think the recording is beyond most of what most people, including me will ever hear with their ears & feel deep down: Listen to it till it grows on you; you'll want to tune back to it over & over again or buy a CD. Also discover the GREATEST trombonist Frank Rosolino; forgotten after a tragedy blamed on him which I'll never believe. My picks for the 5 greats in the United States on trombone are in this order: 1.Frank Rosolino; 2. Carl Fontana, 3. Steve Turre, 4. Jay Jay Johnson; 5. Kai Winding 6. Raul de Silva 7.Trummy Young 8.Bill Watrous. This is just a list of my favorite bones going back 65 years. Still Mr. Fontana was and is my 2nd favorite trombonist of all time.
jeff Craven As you'll se , I should have proof read what I wrote, since these guys I listed aren't all U.S., plus more than five. These 8 bone players are my favorites.
jeff Craven Jeff , you wouldnt happen to know my cousin Jock Ellis, who is a mean trombone ?? or Sax player ????
Took me long enough to get back. I knew Franklin "Hank" Ellis, graduate of & professor & coach at West Virginia Wesleyan College & went to school with his son Franklin "Frank" Ellis, Jr. Anyway, dig the pic of the Fury; is that car yours?
Yes it is. It's used mainly on weekends and special events.
Here it's a year again and I knew & valued WVWC Coach, Professor Hank and his son "Frank" not a better friend, but I have a habit of leaving good friends as yesterday; It's a trait of mine. Piano, like Mr. Steinwaygrande, it's my instrument of choice, trombone 2nd choice, and I could play. After getting disabling injuries, I couldn't play worth a load of crap. In 2018 I want to be back atleast on a community band scene
Well, chromatics can be just as creative. It's about the mix of elements, and it's a bit harsh to cut chromatics completely out of the context, don't you think? If you do it tastefully, and combined with (many) other techniques, it should sound great!
Spell FONTANA right.
And do we improvisers of music think for a min. you could really enjoy jazz let alone play it since your asserting yourself as THE SCHOOL MARM. Look, you just mispelled his name yourself; remember that would be an 's. Listen & enjoy to the music, and cut some people slack for misspellings and grammer, and maybe learn from what some of them have to say.
Carl floated like a butterfly & stung like a bee, but he wasn't boxer. Carl, The Greatest, next to Rosolino and Johnson. Players, avoid alot of chromatics; chromatics are a convenience, not style or pushing forth the bone in creative expression. With the correct physical therapy & exercise I'm going thru now, I'll be back! But tbone players, don't get into the habit of using so many chromatics, it's not that creative, it detracts from the advancement of the tbone in jazz.
