My mother was there that night as well. Made sure that my sister and I took piano lessons
Amazing.!!❤🎉🎉
Excepted the piano player's socks, it is perfect.
Very nice thank you all..
Simply terrific.
Very very fine musical interpretation. .Great band.
Every time i hear this in my Fordham area apartment in The Bronx i cry. I'm 80 now. Peace Corps Volunteer Turkey 1965-1970. Traveled the world. New ❤ York. Home. University Ave & 190th St. Thank you Mr Gershwin. You are the best .
Hello Paul it's been a long time since I've seen you. Welcome back into my life 13:12
Does anyone know who are the great band members.
Also liked the drumming.
You are right Gavin.
Knock out.
I am a Freddie Green devotee and guitarist myself. The band's guitarist is true to the Green form. Beautiful!
Great great musicianship Loved it.
Bravo ! The most powerful song ever written!!! Good performance!!!
Is there anything more perfect that you’ve ever heard? The timekeeping, the intonation, staccato, the blending, the sectional collaboration complied with note articulation. My Guy Stan Akin who taught me would be universally proud. ☝🏾 Oh by the way, if you’re listening to this without cover the ear headphones you’ve missed the point of music 🎼 in general. “White ear buds” won’t cut it. Enjoy……………… 👍🏾
Thank you for your kind words Gavin.
Chris Dean and Gordon Campbell amongst the trombonists.
Oh my heavens. Magnificent. And, human beings to one side, That Piano!
Damn, those guys act like they know what legs look like.
Wonderful to hear it as it should be played after all it was symphonic jazz, i find most modern stretched out examples so long, slow and tedious that i want to go to sleep, all of the excitement of the original arrangement is lost.
How often is a banjo part of the arrangement of this piece? I’ve never noticed that before.
It's in both the original 1924 version, and in the 1942 Grofe version for full symphony orchestra. Some orchestras may or may not cut the banjo for some extenuating reasons I'm not prepared to delve extensively into, and to add, the banjo is usually not hearable on the recordings - save, the section from 10:53 and from 5:05, but faintly because because of the drums, brass / woodwind, and string parts. It's also worth noting banjos aren't overly loud, and during the key changes and transitions from theme to theme, there is either a ff in the vast majority of the woodwind and brass parts, or a crecscendo.
Marvelous orchestra !
BRAVO! BRAVO! BRAVO!
Tremendous recreation of the sound - bravo!
Ha un tono di voce languido e sensuale, eccelle anche nelle note acute. Provate ad ascoltare Fly to Rome...
Great band but this needs to played at 1.25X speed. Waaay too slow.
Perfection, elegant , admirable x
The best "non Basie" live version I ever heard (except the last two notes)
binge listening.
I'm glad to see fine music such as this is still played bravo indeed
👍🔥🔥🔥😉
WHY DOES THE CONDUCTOR JUST STAND THERE AND WAVE HIS HANDS?? HE BRINGS NOTHING TO THE EQUATION. IT SEEMS LIKE THE ORCHESTRA DOES WELL WITHOUT HIM.
Weeks of rehearsing the band maybe?
CZcams's AI thinks this is the real Count Basie cut.
Too slow...
The criticism "too slow" often relates to a obvious disabilty to play it faster. I would believe that this orchestra surely is able to play this song much faster. But they decided to play it the way they do.
R. P. Good load. Snappin tune.
Molto bravi e motivo delizioso
Perfetto!
This is my preferred jazz arrrangement
Como é bom ouvir uma música tão agradável!
10 out of 10!
This is so good! This needs more views everyone is phenomenal!
No performer credits? Huh?
This is not Oscar Peterson.
Dear mlu ccc. You're quite correct it's not Oscar Peterson. It is, as it says on the tin, the music of Oscar Peterson played by the musicians of the Jazz Repertory Company. Quite simple really.
Never heard this version and I love it!
GG wrote because he admired clarinet player so much.
Love Liz Fletcher's version of this song the most among all! I like the jazz flavor and her articulation that you can hear every single word so clearly. She tells the story so well with her beautiful voice. Love the accompaniment with the percusion's rhythm that gives rich dimentions for the song. Beautifully done! Wish there is a karaoke version of Liz's style.
Ragtime Suffragette (Harry Williams and Nat D. Thayer) What's that noise upon the avenue? What's that crowd a-doin' 'round there too? What's the meaning of that awful crash? Has a taxicab got in a smash? Johnny, Johnny run and get your gun. Get in quick or you'll be dead, my son. It would make Napolean quake And shake his head with fear. Oh dear, oh dear, just look, look, look who's here; That ragtime suffragette, She's no household pet, Raggin' with bombshells and raggin' with bricks, Raggin' and naggin' with politics, That ragtime suffragette, Ragtime suffragette, For Lordy, while her husband's wait home to dine, She's just rag-gin' up and down the line. A-shoutin' votes, votes, votes for women, She's a ragtime suffragette. source: www.lyricsondemand.com/u/unknownlyrics/ragtimesuffragettelyrics.html
GREAT performance by all !
