I played piano in my city's big band when I was in school. Played stuff like "In the Mood"/Glenn Miller, "Hello Dolly"/Armstrong, and big band arrangements of "Rock around the Clock" and "Barbara Ann", and Several others
we had several concerts, that was like a really long time ago (14 years maybe? WOW how time files)

I also played in a Dixieland ensemble the Banjo Ukulele with a Tuba and a Sax player... really fun stuff, got some vids on YT, we had some fun performances on campus 2 years ago or so. It's the type of happy music that always cheers up people, we performed live "Bogalusa Strut", "Lena from Palesteena" and "Benny Hill theme".

Adding saxophonist Sonny Rollins to my list of favorites! Love Saxophone Colossus; now have Way Out West incoming.
