I play trumpet in jazz band, and btw professor oreo, bass trombone=best instrument in the jazz world. Ours always has these big honking lines, and its probably the coolest sounding instrument next to stand up bass!!

Oh yeah we have Jazz State Championships on the 24th, wish us luck!

Jazz flute, jazz flute! I play jazz flute, although I'm also being taught alto sax for jazz. In the class, though, I just play flute. At my school, there's jazz lab and jazz ensemble. Jazz lab is basically for starters and stuff, and jazz ensemble is audition only and you can only have one guitarist at a time--in jazz lab there are, like, 10 guitar players who WON'T STOP NOODLING.

Jazz solos are iffy for me. My conversation-ending problem shines through my solos, and I never know what to do at the end, and sometimes in the middle. My teacher says to think of a melody in my head... But I can't! In the end, I just end up playing random notes, and making up my own little melody as I go along.

So yeah. Our VARSITY Jazz Band (and our concert band) went to Washington, D.C. We entered a national competition and won First place for both of them with a rank of Superior.
If you wanna hear our band, heres the links to both songs we played in D.C.

I am a Tromboner (trombonist?) for jazz band. I play Euph in WE though. Also, this year, if the band manages to play Count Bubba's Revenge then we get a free steak dinner.

We're playing that, too! No steak dinner, though. Well, right now, we're butchering it, but it'll get there.
I'm an alto sax/pianist, though. We don't have any trombonists/ers (I think I'll trust spellcheck for trombonists) in our jazz orchestra though. Nor do we have a constant pianist. There's only two willing people that can play piano, me, and the bari sax. But we need the bari, and we have 4 altos instead of 2. I dunno if I want to play keyboard for that song though; I'm usually a classical pianist, so jazz stuff is a little weird for me.
Anyways, good luck razz
