@@DeadHeadBearman Saint emilion festival, i've been looking for it a lot, no way to find it again. Would really aprecciate to be able to listen to it again. Thanks a lot
Somehow this bands works. Each having a starkly different style but being able to be sensitive to the emotional development in the moment. John Cowherd is an amazing composer.
not much of a reed guy, but, the guy playing the big (Bass Clarinet?) has huge good tone. I flipped here from another Fellowship video where the same guy was playing alto sax, his tone was exceptional in that video as well...
Compression was not a factor for me, I love sax, and while the sax explored new regions, it seemed to lack the brilliance of the other performers. Other than complete immersion, performance and music was spot-on for me.
