It's so cool to see Patrick Bartley and Russel Hall performing then vs now. Crazy how good they were then and how much better they've gotten since then. From great to amazing!
The group at TJI from 2013-2018 + Doug Tidaback (director) was unreal. I was in one of the lower bands at the time and it was amazing just to be that close and watch/listen to them everyday
I am glad someone recognized this. I am just a 20 year old from California but I am so fascinated by TJI's dominance at this competition during those years, escpically their 2013 group which was imo one of the best. Wish I could have been in your shoes and seen them live. Btw do you know what happened to the director?

Personally, I would've loved to see Max Goldschmid, Griffin Ross, Santosh Sharma, BreAnna DeNure, Teddy McGraw, Philip Norris, and Anthony Hervey. But it's hard to pick 25 solos, so overall good list!
12:06 - Coleman Hughes, trombone solo on Royal Garden Blues is amazing! And a clear example of what can be done with some good technique, a good upper range and the good ‘ole blues scale. Worthy of transcription.

Good grief! What an inspiration. When I was first learning to play jazz (still learning!) in high school, compared to these kids, I could hardly tie my shoes! Wowser!!
12:50 Another trombone solo, this time by Sam Chess in Symphony in Riffs. Great use of sequences, and a familiar quote at the end (Isn’t She Lovely - Stevie Wonder).
Way late to the comments and this may never be seen… but I grew up with Sam in AZ and we decided to both play the trombone in 5th grade. After being second chair behind Sam from 5th-9th grade I decided to call it quits. All these years later combined with a better appreciation of his greatness, I find comfort in knowing I wasn’t delusional for thinking he was miles ahead of me 😂

RIP Aubrey Martin, that kid could PLAY!!!
sorry if im late but what happened to him?
Vern Google says he passed in 2018. How sad that we lost such young talent...
I believe he committed suicide unfortunately
Indeed. One of my closest friends and a big reason why I started learning to play
@@benstowers9547 it is so sad to see this comment now. I hope that you and aubrey are playing through some tunes together now. ):

RIP Aubrey Martin. Legend that has inspired me throughout so many critical points in my life
I love at 13:20 when the trombone soloist does a motif/lick to "Isn't She Lovely" by Stevie Wonder.
My man Patrick Bartley laying it down!
I didn’t realize Erica was the first solo! she taught me a thing or two last college festival. Amazing Saxophonist!

I was wondering where Philip Norris and Anthony Hervey were too but still a great list!
1st entry is actually *Erica, and the school is in CT.
george fultons solo i expected the different one on things to come tbh
Dang, the people who got Honorable Mentions and then made this list got the last laugh lmao
Man listening to all these amazingly talented young cats is making me emotional. Absolutely incredible.
7:31 forget a moment about the soloist (who, as someone here said, so well emulates Cannonball) the whole BANDSTAND is swingin'!!!
that's Patrick Bartley! one of the great alto players in the world now!
Thats Patrick Bartley! He plays with Emmet Cohen
We're here, folks! Swing!
this video just makes me want to get up and dance from start to finish, so swingin
RIP Aubrey Martin - man, he could PLAY
12:06 - Coleman Hughes, trombone solo on Royal Garden Blues is amazing! And a clear example of what can be done with some good technique, a good upper range and the good ‘ole blues scale. Worthy of transcription.
Getting straight chills from Christopher McDole! God damn!
7:31 HE PLAYIN THAT BASS BOI
Aarion Diehl, Patrick Bartley, Sam Chess, Abdias Armenteros, Summer Camargo, John Murray. Really all of them are amazing.

this is great jazz. Thanks to all involved!
Patrick Bartley sounds like cannonball
Like later cannonball,yea
Patrick Bartleys solo is my fav by far, so much soul!!
And swing they did!
That is fabulous
RIP AUBREY MARTIN
that last solo, that kid with the glasses, best solo in the whole video in my opinion. This is some great stuff.
George Fulton?
@@Harako15 Yes
13:22 That Isn't She Lovely quote 😂
12:50 Another trombone solo, this time by Sam Chess in Symphony in Riffs. Great use of sequences, and a familiar quote at the end (Isn’t She Lovely - Stevie Wonder).
97 00 hall high alum huge shout out out hall high jazz band :)
Finestissimo
As a fairly mediocre trombone player, if I could play like Sam Chess, I’d be a happy man. Love his style.
Way late to the comments and this may never be seen… but I grew up with Sam in AZ and we decided to both play the trombone in 5th grade. After being second chair behind Sam from 5th-9th grade I decided to call it quits. All these years later combined with a better appreciation of his greatness, I find comfort in knowing I wasn’t delusional for thinking he was miles ahead of me 😂
12:06 for two spicy bone solos
Wow!
Man that first pianist sounds so much like oscer peterson its insane
