When The saints Go Marching In, performed live.
Listen how well the band builds up the tension and the extremely swinging groove towards the final chorusses. This kind of swing is very seldom heard nowadays and it is supported by the harmonic modulations, that came spontanious during this performance. You can hear the bandleader giving the new key(s), and the whole band following without hesitation.
This band has a nice blend of sophisticated routines and spontanious action that keeps the musicians alert and may surprise the audience.
No two performances are the same.
