  • This video has been colorized, upscaled and brought up to 60 FPS using AI (artificial intelligence)
    The audio track has been manually cleaned up from cracks and clipping, repaired and enhanced by me. Using special plug-ins I made it sound like it was recorded at Belgium Opera Theatre of Ghent.
    With Colorizing AI it's a hit or miss, but still pretty impressive and makes you think what people are gonna come up with in a decade or so.

    He understands this standard deeper then anyone I've ever heard. All his versions feel iconic to me.

    This is incredible! Obviously the colorization is amazing, but I also love the close up where we can clearly see how his lower lip and head move as he goes up and down the range of the horn. Higher notes, head up, lower lip out, more of the reed vibrating. Lower notes, head down, lip in, less of the reed vibrating for that lovely subtone.

    in the final part of the number, as the piano solo ends, Dexter starts playing again but what you hear in the first 20/30 seconds is not the reprise of the main theme, but the first notes of "the Christmas songs"...! But it flows in so well it does not sound like coming from a different tune

    Dexter at 41. He looks as if he’s still in his 30’s. I love how he quotes other songs during his solos. Here his quoting “Chestnut’s on an open fire.” Great job with the AI! The video is exceptionally well done and the audio is of high quality. Very impressive!!!

    This is beautiful and I have no idea why I'm just finding this now. I had to chuckle a bit when half-watching this video and half-working, I looked up @5:35 and thought, "Is he checking his phone?" As soon as I heard Dexter resume playing, I imagined that he received a text from Mel Torme asking if he could work in a few lines of "The Christmas Song." This happens when you are old and distracted. 😕
