He made the impossibly difficult look easy.
Bellissimo esempio di impugnatura Musser, bel video veramente e Rollini in ottima forma........
In my humble opinion Adrian Rollini is one of the greatest musicians who's ever lived. His bass saxaphone playing is indescribably beautiful.
You haven't seen his paintings yet
I could watch him play this all day. What a genius he was. So effortless and fluid. ❤❤❤
The guy was a wizard.
It is so amazing to watch a person who is completely effortless on an instrument, like this. He doesn't even have to look down all the time, to see what he's doing.
Hey, that's my teacher, Allen Hanlon, on guitar. Thanks for posting.
TOUT SIMPLEMENT EXTRAORDINAIRE !
How wonderful he was, bass saxophone as well. A legend, gone too soon.
Rollini was a miracle. Unfortunatly he he did not get the praise he deserved. Being such a talented, versatile and original jazzmusician he should be mentioned in more music history books.
A child prodigy who never failed to excell on whatever instrument he played. I am always amazed when I read of casual praise coming from some music critic about Rollini. I would say it is Rollini's case in particular that caused me many years ago to just ignore what music critics have to say. Music in general is imminently enjoyable without their input.
Why have I never heard of Rollini before??? Wow what a precise yet easy going style.
Adrian Rollini was so remarkable there doesn't seem to be good enough words to describe him.
Superb.
What a musician! The absolute master of the bass sax, classical piano, vibes, and all kinds of of novelty instruments! It's so sad that he dropped out of the music business and died relatively young.
While I'm more a fan of his bass sax work, I enjoyed this video immensely.
Great Adrian Rollini!a different eay to play vibes than Hampton's one but extremely fascinating!
I am profoundly enchanted by this, can watch and listed again and again and again. thanks for the great upload!
what a great video-indeed Adrian Rollini could do no wrong- thank you for posting this

Adrain Rollini was a great band leader and a very talented musician to play that instrument the way he did.
I remember I watched this video when it was just uploaded and it inspired me to start learning guitar, I quit a couple years after for healthy issues tho :(
Now I realize that Rollini anticipated the cool sounds of the Red Norvo Trio! What a versatile musician he was!! When he left the California Ramblers the group lost its identity. Thank you for this cool great quality video.
Ironic, since Allen Hanlon was a member of Red Norvo's late 1930's orchestra, although was never featured as a soloist.
There is a lot of his bass saxophone playing in the Mosaic Venuti-Lang set. He can also be heard playing the hot fountain pen in that set - a short, keyless clarinet that sounds a lot lower than you would expect.
Woody Herman recorded this n 1942 as "The Golden Wedding." Nice to know there are at least TWO great jazz versions of it!
This is much better than the Herman version, which has had more exposure than it deserves and is kinda corny - and it has a boring drum section.
Absolutely love this. Just check out that subtle key change - musical genius !
The stars align when Adrian plays especially that sax, my first exposure to what heaven must sound like.
Very cool Raymond Scott cover!
Outstanding!
never replaced. only imitated. like a new sound.
Now that is not weekend musicianship friends ,this is old school iam a MUSICIAN nothing else !!! Bravo you dont see that now days for shure.
3 monsters!!
Spectacular! Love it!
5 STARS!

This tune acquired its quirky title in 1939, when Raymond Scott recorded the original piece in an unconventional tempo (around the same as he delved into similar classical material with 'The Quintette Plays Carmen' and 'A Little Bit Of Rigoletto'. Curiously, the original Scott and Rollini 78s gave composer credit to both 'Gabriel Marie' and 'Scott', whereas Milt Herth's Decca version only credits Scott.
Nice alternative to the great jazz version by Woody Herman (as "The Golden Wedding"). I especially like the Django-ish guitar.
Wow, what a wonderful video. He was certainly a marvelous player. It seems like this was in that transition period from ragtime to swing. He phrases like a ragtime xylophone player but on vibes. I believe he is playing a Deagan Imperial Vibe which would probably put this late 30s to early 40's. Anyone have an idea of the date of this video?
Good heavens! This is soo beautiful instrumental version of this song!
Excellent stuff!
Both the opening (original) title, and the new one added at the end, show that this was copyrighted 1948 by Video Varieties. That company name means that this short film was originally intended to be shown on American TV stations as a time-filler if a program ran a little short. There are other similar music shorts from this time period, of all different types of music.
This tune is so good that I searched out the music for it. I'll be happy to send a copy to you.
Anyone interested in AR should read the book Lost Chords: White Musicians and their Contribution to Jazz, 1915-1945, by Richard Sudhalter. It gives the story of the California Ramblers, Red Nichols, and the rest of Rollini's career through his sad death.
Thanks again.
This tune is based on "La Cinquantaine" Search it out on youtube. You will see why nobody swings like Adrian Rollini.
I thank you very much, so kind of you...
Thanks again

Thanks
I'm noticing Rovo and Rollini using a certain mallet grip but i can't name it?I've seen alot of people playing viberphone play this way.
Capperi, bellissimo. Ma si può ovviare a questo fastidioso fuori sinc?
jeez
but why does she have light blue hair
Il rivalisait largement avec Lionel Hampton, et de plus, il était prodigieux aussi au piano, au saxophone, et bien d'autres instruments très probablement !
@stracepipe agreed
Lindyhoppers, I see that yoohoomusic2 asked where he/she can get the music from. Can you email him/her saying that I have just bought the sheet music and I'd be pleased to send a copy to him/her. Thanks.
e cmq è la traditional
Does anyone know where I can find the music for this??
What are the lyrics to Girl With the Light Blue Hair?
Mr Overclockeador, put your email address in a comment, and it will be on its way.
Thanks again.
