I've been listening to SSS since 1953.....I can hum it, note for note, all the way through. The unbeatable version was at Benny Goodmans Carnigie Hall concert in 1938; no recording thereafter came near that.........but............ ...these girls are FABULOUS. The sheer skill and swing they achieve is wonderful......there stage craft is superb....and they look great. BG will be smiling with approval at the Swing Girls!
For all the doubters out there you need to watch this song being performed at the end of the movie THEN watch this live performance recorded later! These girls continued to practice and learn and it clearly shows in the live performance. Since these girls are actresses i doubt they still play together but as a Sax player myself during High School (about a hundred years ago, LOL) i can tell you the music bug never really leaves you. After many years away from playing i am back at it partially due to this movie and watching Kyoto Tachibana High School. I suspect that sooner or later some of these ladies will get the urge again also!
I had to search hard to find this concert DVD. I love it! The movie is LOTS of fun, and also much more easy to find on DVD. One of my favorites movies and a great fun concert, together they are among my most cherished DVDs I own.
What a great rytm! You feel with your body: Danse, Danse, Danse! I have played trumpet in a band and you can feel the sound when all members make it work together. Fantastic that the actors did play, especially with a few weeks learning, much better than original band. Maybe because the band leader found this sound when learning them. Every band has their own rytm and you need to find it! They play also with their body means that they have the rytm to let the fingers live their own life on the instrument! Thank you all!
they all learned their instruments 6 weeks before filming started they were taught at the yamaha school of music in tokyo. yamaha showcased the new line of horns and funded the movie. then after the movie sent them on a world tour
+Naufal Aden yes i started playing cornet in 64 and was barely playing at this level as 1st chair cornet in 72 as a sr. i was not taught to read music properly
+brokenwrench1 I play diffrent instrument, but I feel the same :v.. I really want to know what kind of training did the have :D they must be really serious about this :D
+Naufal Aden they spent 8 hours per day 6 days a week at the yamaha school of music in tokyo and yamaha funded the movie and furnished all the instruments. yamaha was introducing a new pro trumpet model and they were furnished for the world concert tour that followed a year later. just play the sing sing sing performance from their first and last concert. the group had been playing for 18 months when it was recorded and you can tell the difference, it was a lot stronger
What a great tribute to the swing era! I agree with Timbotot WIlkins that Benny & Louis would have been proud, and while nobody's ever gonna be Gene Krupa...good job on the skins. I missed the clarinet solo, but over all....good performance. Loosen up a bit and you'll be alright. :)
I find it a little strange, that all these actresses were taught to play for the movie. In Japanese schools, they have after school clubs, and every student is expected to join one. It is traditional for the girls to join the Wind Instrument Club. The Kyoto Tachibana Green Band, is a band made up of senior students ranging in age from 15 to 18. For those of you who like band music, i suggest you take a viewing of them.
Impresionantes, no puedo describirlas mejor, este grupo de jovencitas no superan los 20 años de edad, y tocar con esa calidad en vivo y en directo, es una prueba de fuego, como quiera que lo hicieron en directo, aprendieron a tocar sin mímica ni doblaje de ninguna clase, partiendo de cero, tras varios meses de intenso aprendizaje.
Sadly, you won't be able to listen to something this cool on American Radio Stations. Most of the songs that they play are pop flop and for sure that they'll never give girls the biggest breaks that they should've gotten long ago. Hmmm. I wonder if someday that I might get Commercial Free HD Radio as well?
Pretty decent job these Swing Girls did, as they only had 6 months to learn their respective instruments... I especially like Yukari Toyoshima on drums, she holds down that rhythm section pretty well, yes, ok, not exactly Gene Krupa, but considering the fact that these girls are actors and not musicians, I think Louie Prima and Benny Goodman would have been proud. I was going to buy the DVD when it became available (with English subtitles), but just never got around to it. Might still check to see if the DVD of Swing Girls is still available on eBay. I wonder if any of these girls took up music as a profession in Japan, anyone know? Timbo
ispeak4detrees I saw a documentary some years back about the producer of the movie, I don't recall his name, but he is very well known in Japan. The discussion arose about the fact that the girls had no musical experience, and worked very hard for 6 months to perfect their musical talents. In the case of Yukari Toyoshima, from Hokkaido, she attempted to make it in the music industry, and produced a couple of CD's where she showcased some of the songs that she wrote and sang. She also was popular in Japan doing some shows with a band she formed, and attempted to get a booking here in the Los Angeles area to do a show. She did get here, but I think her trip turned out to be more of a vacation rather than a showbiz gig. She was in one other Japanese movie, but not sure how popular that movie was in Japan. Timbo
I really like that film. But: "Looking-glass upon the wall, Who is fairest of us all?" And the glass answered, "Queen, thou art of beauty rare, But Snow-white (here: Kyoto Tachibana SHS Band) living in the glen With the seven little men Is a thousand times more fair."
For some kids who hadn't played an instrument only a few months before this, they were terrific. Not many can sound this good after years of practice. Naysayers are idiotic trash.
Pretty amazing performance. But I wonder why the entire sax line is tuned just a tiny bit flat? For this kind of hot swing, it's customary to actually tune the saxes a little sharp, so they can cut against the trumpets...
It absolutely amazes me that girls this young are interested in this kind of music and play it so well. VERY impressive, ladies!!!
And they learnt all the instruments over 3 months just for the movie
@@johnbethell1952 - Holy Smoke!!! That's EXTREMELY impressive!

I miss Japan. Spent 21 years flying in and out of Narita, Osaka, Kansai & occasionally Yokota and other places. Got to know some great people.
I was in Yokosuka while in the Navy....love Japan :)
音楽の楽しさを十分出していますね。

何だか素朴さの中にも暖かみが有って心地いい !! 昨今は貴重な楽器を持って飛び跳ねる人も居る様だが、楽器作者の思いが一杯に詰まった器物だよ !! とても粗末に扱える気になれません !! やはりバンドもフロンティアだねぇ !!!
Fantastic orchestra/band! Love their music! It's amazing that young people today like the swing music of yesterday, before most of them were born!
The more that I hear them the more that I LOVE them.

These girls kick butt.......great song!
Give them credit, they played a classic with their own flair and style.
I missed the drum solo, but love their enthusiasm - great work!
Brilliant and beautiful in every way. Thanks!
Makes me fondly remember my days in the big bands as lead trombone. Killed it
Perfecta orquestación, melodía, armonía, ritmo y sumale buen humor, talentos, arte y juventud de esta extraordinaria orquesta !
EXCELLENT. Hope they kept the swing girls up. Would love to see the 2018 version.

Puede que tengan más de 20 en este momento. Pero las de Tachibana school esas si son reales y encima bailan.
Just fantastic
Toda una genial interpretación de este clásico del Jazz.Simplemente sensacional y lleno de esa vitalidad de esta clase de género musical.
Im Facebook friends with the drummer Yukari. she is so nice really
I love them !!!!XXXXXX

Now That is True
Swing Music!!!
Interesting to hear a arraignement of this tune that varies a bit from the original Benny Goodman version.
Carl Schwamberger the original’s tune was deeper but still a great tribute to Benny’s

대단히 감사합니다...

That’s unbelievable! Then if you practice the way they did I can see how they achieved this!
멋쪄^**^
Yo this is awesome stuff bro
Glourious!,
Impressive!
what is the name of the girl playing solo trombone.
Oh yeah that is real going, thank you happy Friday with lol
wowwwwww
再生速度速くしてるからキーが上がってる
It isn't Benny Goodman. But it's pretty darn good. Pretty darn good.
Oh yes the jams have been kicked out! These Gals schooled me! I handed over my Lunch Money like good poindexter. LOL
молодцы, девчата.
Yowsa yowsa yowsa!
