OH YEAHHHHHHHHHH

That was hard to watch with the composition winner. He's a good writer but horrible conductor and stage presence!

Gotta love the great playing of Sean Jones and him letting us all know he's the star LCJO sub up their doing his own thing with no tie, shirt out and still kicking much butt up there lol.

definitely the best performance of the competition. Amazing. That tenor solo was the best thing ever good job dude

12:35 this kid is fkn ripping it 🔥🔥🔥 go crazy bro

3:24 that stickflip was so clean

Great performance!

the first trombone's reaction at 49:35 is hilarious

I love you guys good job gang! -Naiyah

This was a great performance. Vanessa was fabulous

Wow.. I thought I was a decent trumpet player back in my younger days... These guys blew my socks off.. Amazing!

Jazz talent in the making!🎉🎉🎉

Graitude for collecting all the performances. Subscribed and I return often.

This band got shafted, I don’t understand how they didn’t win their third in a row.

Missed out on so much goling to Federal Way School District after 22 straight levy failures. I hope Seattle keeps music in mind as it makes their hard decisions about their neighborhood schools and horrible budget shortage.

These Lucky Talented Lucky kids. Wow! Talented, and Great Director.

Trumpet solo in Rent Party is Mitch Jeruzal

Super tight, one of the best bands this year for sure

awesome flute solo

I wonder how many of the students who take part in this competition know who the likes of Brian Settles, Jonathan Finlayson, Myra Melford, Kris Davis, Tomas Fujiwara, or Craig Taborn are, or have ever listened to anything they have recorded?

These students have dedicated themselves to excellence, and their performances are awe-inspiring. I am blown away by their talent and professionalism. Kudos to their band director for his commitment, too.

Best Tunisia since Dillard with Summer Camargo

Que beleza!

guitar tone is kinda awesome

I love seeing these young kids enjoy swinging. It's almost a lost art.

Rather than branding the winner of this festival as "The Best High School Jazz Band in the United States," perhaps the label "The Best High School Jazz Band at Playing the Music of Duke Ellington" is more appropriate. I'm still waiting for an "Essentially [Don] Ellis" jazz festival. New and fresh each year. Innovation rather than preservation. In the words of Derek Smalls of Spinal Tap ... "A preserved Moose."

Elliot Mason is a beast I'm ngl

Deus me livre !!! Quanta desafinação ! Falta muito estudo !

just amazing

Where can I begin on how Duke has changed my life? I was seventeen years old. Nervous, this was my first date. I sat down at the counter, just biden my time until my date came. And I heard no other song on the radio then golden cress. It was a beautiful moment. Oh, where did it all go wrong? I began to fall in love with jazz music as I fell in love with Melissa, the love of my life. Every day I would practice the trumpet then go to her house. Soon, I got my first gig. All thanks to Duke. It was four years ago. I woke up to find a note. She was gone. I got in my car to go to work, try to keep my mind off things, until I heard golden cress on the radio. I spent too much time playing jazz that Melissa left me. It cuts like a knife but she's out of my life. I learned that love, like jazz, needs expression, but I learned too late. Kids, you did a good job winning this competition, but remember what's really important in your life.

Ryan Kisor for president.🎺

Wowie, what an amazing show. They really played those tunes with energy and soul. Reminds me of some cats I saw back in '79 who were really just swingin and playing the changes. These kids sure are lucky to have such an esteemed band director. If you want to take advice from this old man, I say you need a better bassist. That first one really just wasn't playing the time. I get that fella is a youngster but his playing on Creshendo and Diminuendo was sloppy.

Bravo!!!

Possibly the best EE performance ever. Up there with AMP in 2013 and Dillard in 2011.

All the mugging woo hooing and planned grimaces leave a lot to be desired.

The references in that first trumpet solo were insane (Rhythm-a-ning and Four)!

WOW.. So GREAT!!! Love ALL the soloists! Chad Bloom is the coolest band leader!!!

these musicians have inspired me to quit playing drums

Wonderful high school jazz, impressive they are jazz musicians in the mold. Hard to believe they are still in school.

These kids are going to have happy memories of their high school days.

Was Wynton not present this year?

I really love Ramp but why don't they bring in Jon-Erik Kellso to play on something like Black Beauty? Also that freshman from FLA is scary on Trumpet! 🔥

What a racket

Yeah Allie!! 🔥🔥

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
