Fall Little Big Band Concert

The UW Lit­tle Big Band had its fall con­cert a few weeks ago, and I’ve just got­ten around to post­ing the record­ing. This semes­ter, our instru­men­ta­tion was trom­bone, cello, bas­soon, gui­tar, piano, bass, and drums. We’re a lit­tle bass-instrument-heavy, but I think our arrange­ments neatly dealt with that fact. One big change this time around is that Pat (the cel­list) and I played ampli­fied, in order to achieve a bet­ter bal­ance within the ‘horn’ sec­tion. It worked well in con­cert, but the bal­ance is some­times off in the record­ing. See the pro­gram and hear the tunes here.

I’ve now posted videos of all the pieces my reed trio played on our recital in Feb­ru­ary. Only one of the videos, that of the Tans­man Suite, is actu­ally from the recital; we recorded the Villa-Lobos Trio and Can­teloube Rus­tiques later (you’ll notice that we’re stand­ing in one video and sit­ting in the other two, and that our clothes change as well). You can find all the videos, along with our pro­gram notes from the recital, here. I fig­ured out how to embed YouTube playlists rather than indi­vid­ual videos, so you’ll only see one embed­ded player per piece. Just click the arrows on either side of a player to switch between movements.

Here are the two remain­ing move­ments of the Villa-Lobos Trio for oboe, clar­inet, and bas­soon (the first move­ment is here):
