Juxtaposed with the college bands, as good as they all were, the Legendary Count Basie Orchestra is world class. They demonstrated cohesive alignment, each member taking solos, demonstrating a precision and professionalism that is inspiring.
Director Scotty Barnhart led with good explanations, a few pithy history notes as the band enjoys its 89th year in existence. The presence of Carmen Bradford with a cheerful, commanding voice, had stories to tell, vocalizing, singing with the band. With 20 musicians onstage, the old standards, with some very creative arrangements, gave the sold-out audience an evening to long remember!
The Yamaha sound board, controlled by the talented, dedicated engineer, John Born, a Shure sound professional. He offered the audience first class PAs, using a Meyer Sound Labs system to enable each instrument mic'ed up to project, in a balanced way, throughout the acoustically booming room. Meanwhile, the Meyer monitors kept the musicians in sync with the highs, lows, and collective volume along with well-directed pianissimo passage in an overall mix that showed what accomplished musicians can do together! Much love. Keep the big band jazz 🎶 alive.
