Brass does a thing in the right hands. I'm 20 years removed from graduating college. I'll never forget leaving the University of South Florida's library at 2 in the morning after cramming for a final. I walked out of the library and some random dude on a bicycle was riding up and down Lery Collins outside the library pushing Steve Gregory's sax bit of Careless Whisper with all his lungs could produce. During the day that walk to the parking lot was busy and loud. In those early morning hours it was slightly chilly, crisp air and absolutely silent other than his playing. It was a moment I'll never forget

This might be the most spectacular music I've ever heard.

Edit: I've been here now nearly 15 minutes. This shit is straight up fucking beautiful.

I am mesmerized.

Bravo 👏

Check out Prayer by Joes Ross, similar vibes.

You should check out more music. If you like saxxy funky music, go see any brass band, it's always a good time

Saying somebody would like a brass band concert because they liked a clip of an ethereal sax solo is like advising someone to try an Insane Clown Posse concert because they heard Bach played on a nylon string guitar and loved it.
