Went to Arts Magnet with Roy, knew then that he was going places...Saw him perform in the cafeteria during lunch, with Wynton Marsalis. 10 years later, caught him in a club on 6th street in Austin, told him I went to arts with him, ended up hangin with him in the back of the club on some old beat up couches...He smoked some Ganj, and we partied till 5 am, he played an old beat up piano and we had so much fun. I told him I sang, and he prompted me to sing: “Reunited” (peaches and herb?) I didn’t know the words, so I blew that, hahaha. I was sad to hear of his passing.. Side: Erykah Badu went there when we did too, Arts Magnet...
Such a tragedy he lost his life so young. This concert is a wonderful testament to his wonderful sound and talent. Once again thank you WDR for your amazing talent and arrangements. Superb!!!
WDR Big Band super Orchestra in the world! Roy Hargrove remains in the future as one of best improvisers on trumpet of all Jazzfusion and swunky : forever Roy, the king of jazz-improvisation!
I had NO idea of Roy's health struggles and that he has been gone for 2 years! I really don't know how I missed that, and I'm so glad this project happened. RIP, RH!
Wdr you guys are legendary. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for posting this master Piece. Everyone at his best that day. Much love from Paris France
On "Listen Here", the MIDI wind controller player was over the top! Screaming bluesy guitar, too! Roy Hargrove and Paul Heller outstanding as usual, too! The whole WDR Big Band is on fire!
Ausgezeichnet ! Noch ein wundervolles Konzert von der WDR Big Band...meines Erachtens...die beste Big Band in der Welt. Danke für alle diese hervorragenden Konzerte ! Einer der besten Kanäle in YT. Viele Grüße aus Buenos Aires !
From start to finish, this concert is PHENOMINAL! I knew Roy was a bad man but this has to be one of his greatest performances! Miss him much...gone way too soon.
Roy has been a great trumpet player from day one, his talent will be long missed. I can't say enough about Karolina Strassmayer - she is great! This band has some of the best musicians around and all in this one band!
Started my day with this concert, everything looks better now. Wow! I’m a new fan. Thank you to all those responsible for sharing such beautiful music.
Grazie per questa musica di altri tempi che non ascoltavo da tanti anni... Con musicisti eccellenti come tecnica e gusto. Gli strumenti a fiato sono gradevolissimi . Grazie
La WDR BIG BAND como siempre sus conciertos maravillosos,, es decir majistral, dirigido por este grandisimo director areglista y compositor músico lleno de talento,,, Roy Hargrove un trompetista muy fino brillante lleno de talento se encuentra entre los más grande de estas décadas genial,,, Paul Heller xaso tenor los solos de este potente tenor se sale de libro majistral impresionante,,, no boy ha nombrarlos ha todos son muchos músicos pero todos en la misma línea se salen todos impresionante,,, es decir los músicos de la grandisima Orquesta la WDR son todos unos grandisimos profesionales y muy cotizados ha nivel internacional,,, da gusto escuchar sus grandes conciertos,,, son para recordar con el paso del tiempo,,, maravilloso y espléndido concierto como siempre la gran WDR BIG BAND..
Аранжировки шикарные, так всё сыграно чисто! Звук и видео на высоте. Музыканты как на подбор, особенно понравилась девушка на альт-саксофоне и её грамотная и кайфовая импровизация! Но и Рой навсегда будет жив на видео и аудио записях!
Большое спасибо за прекрасные слова. Наша "девушка" на альт-саксофоне - Каролина Страссмайер. Она играет в банде почти 15 лет. Возможно, тебя заинтересует ее портрет. Но на данный момент есть только английские субтитры. Если ты не можешь с этим справиться, нам придется добавить русские субтитры. ...это займет некоторое время...ruclips.net/video/IKEGUnlCe_Q/видео.html
Wonderful concert, thank you for posting it in full. WDR Big Band, as usual world class, the whole band seems to hit new heights at each concert. The charts must have been a marathon to write, great, thanks. Paul from NZ.
Hi Paul! Greetings to NZ. Michael Abene, our former chief conductor wrote all those arrangements, - he wrote more than 1000 arrangements for the band at his period with us!
Great concert guys!! As ever - I reckon the best jazz brass band in the world. Ever since I experienced what they did with Joe Zawinul I have been a firm follower. Well done and keep the work up. And indeed - RIP Roy - a great great loss to us all.
Hello Jim, thank you very much for following us so constantly! All musicians need people, who like to hear their music and escpecially in crazy times like these days.
Absolutely phenomenal performance. WDR with Mr. Hargrove, WDR with e.s.t., and so many others. Thanks to all of you. Maybe one day I will get to experience a WDR live show. Keep truckin' everyone! RIP Roy and Esborn and much love.
Thank you for the upload, 21st century big band. This is a good example of bebop, hiphop, new jack swing big band style. Tight. Yall deserve some grammys if you don't have them already.
Hi Julian, thank you very much for your complement. The WDR Big Band indead has won 3 Grammys and several more nominations....and of course we would be happy, if there will be some more:)
As a GenX, Roy will always be special chapter in my songbook. Saw him from his beginnings to the height of his career success.❤ Roy was simply out-cold & fire!
@@WDRBIGBAND This is actually the first that I'm hearing his music. I've always heard of his name but for some reason never researched further. Thank you for this great experience; now I miss him 🤣
WDR como siempre espléndida, Y el invitado un virtuoso de la trompeta, Los sólitas majistrales se salen siempre se suben ha la cima esto es maravilloso escucharlos es emocionante berlos tocar como destilan la buena música.
Miss this dude so much! However, Guess it wasn't meant to be a "collaboration" though the RH Factor was/is a Band, not just people playing with Grove. We started that journey back in 2001 together. Amazing performance, love the arrangements. Just would've been awesome to have been a part of this as a Band/Family! Would be nice if you would mention/credit that this is the music from the RH Factor, as we all had a hand in making this music(except Eddie Harris Listen Here, awesome all by itself) what it was and still is, classic! This music, the band, was truly some of the best times of his life and career when we traveled all of the world playing this music with basically little to no support from his record company at the time. A true labor of love for each other and our music. #rhfactor
Thank you for the tip, JT. We checked the page and saw that only the time codes of the track list had ended up in the English description. We have added the text accordingly. Glad you're here right now.
@@WDRBIGBANDAmazing!! Thanks so much for doing that. I know the other members of the band will really appreciate it. Glad to be back here again with you guys, though it is much much colder. Lol!
Its Roy Hargrove, not much left to say...not to mention his predecessors, but did like Heiner's short alto solo on the last track 'Family' (a King Super 20 I think?), would like to have heard more from him, love the sound/tone of an ebonite mouthpiece on an older saxophone..
Roy , tu es le Roi. Vive la Mer Notre Mer Notre Mer qui êtes si bleue Que ton Nom soit partagé Que ton horizon nous fasse renaitre Que ta volonté et ta miséricorde m' acceptent Offre-nous aujourd'hui notre Triton de ce jour Comme une trompette de la renommée Et non plus comme un cercueil Pardonne-nous nos défaites et nos deuils Comme nous pardonnerons à nos bourreaux Et ne nous soumets pas aux quotas Mais délivre l' Europe de ses peurs et de ses carcans Georges Yoram Federmann Strasbourg France 20 mai 2015

Love Karolina's Solo... she's always on fire.. love dat girl.
True, on fire sounds well!

His playing is just incredible. I cant imagine the work he put into his chops. Especially when you put chop dystonia into the mix.
Holy Cow! I just started listening to this ("Bob Drop")... just monstrous solos by Roy and the alto player. Man!

Sí, pero desafortunadamente con Roy, no se puede repetir...R.I.P.
"RICH MAN'S WELFARE" is Afrobeat through and through......a nod to the originator, FELA KUTI

Notre Mer qui êtes si bleue
Que ton Nom soit partagé
Que ton horizon nous fasse renaitre
Que ta volonté et ta miséricorde m' acceptent
Offre-nous aujourd'hui notre Triton de ce jour
Comme une trompette de la renommée
Et non plus comme un cercueil
Pardonne-nous nos défaites et nos deuils
Comme nous pardonnerons à nos bourreaux
Et ne nous soumets pas aux quotas
Mais délivre l' Europe de ses peurs et de ses carcans
