This is the hundredth and twenty-second in a series of special Jazz on the Tube reviews of live stream performances.

The up-and-coming trumpeter Alphonse Horne has a spectacular and extroverted style along with a wide expressive range.
Born in Jacksonville, Florida, he began playing trumpet while in the sixth grade, played in his school band, and participated in the Jazz at Lincoln Center’s Essentially Ellington competition, graduating from Florida State University in 2010.
He earned a Masters in Jazz from Juilliard and has since toured with Wynton Marsalis and Jazz At Lincoln Center (2013), the Cab Calloway Band, Jamison Ross, Joey Alexander, the Count Basie Orchestra (2016), Rhiannon Giddens and his own early jazz group the Gotham Kings
On his LiveStream from May 4, 2020, Horne pays tribute to Louis Armstrong during a set of colorful duets with the versatile pianist Chris Pattishall (who pays tribute along the way to several pianists who worked with Armstrong).
They perform such numbers as Duke Ellington’s “Portrait Of Louis Armstrong,” “Struttin’ With Some Barbecue,” “St. Louis Blues” (which Horne also sings), “King Porter Stomp” (which surprisingly changes tempos twice), “Weatherbird Rag,” “Ain’t Misbehavin,’” a dramatic “Black And Blue,” and an unusual version of “What A Wonderful World,” not closely imitating Louis Armstrong but paying homage to him within his style.

Review:
This is the hundredth and thirty-seventh in a series of special Jazz on the Tube reviews of live stream performances.

One of the top jazz pianists around today, Christian Sands grew up in Connecticut, had piano lessons from the age of four, and attended the Manhattan School of Music.
Sands first became well known as the pianist with Christian McBride’s Inside Straight.
Christian Sands has built his style out of the mainstream of jazz, developing his own voice and inventive style which can be heard on the nine albums that he has so far recorded as a leader.
On his May 2, 2020 LiveStream, Sands plays solo piano on Ray Brown’s “Gravy Waltz,” a few originals, and a lowdown blues, swinging soulfully and with constant creativity.

Most musicians are self-employed.
If you set yourself up as a business and you’ve filed with the IRS, you may qualify for stimulus help.
It’s not going to be easy, but it is doable and may well be worth the effort.
This guy makes it as clear as it possibly can be – and time is of the essence.
He’s also got lots and lots of other useful videos on the stimulus program.
Note: This video is applicable to ALL self-employed people.
This is a strange topic for Jazz on the Tube but we have A LOT of self-employed musicians as subscribers.
If you want some fresh music, explore our 2,500+ video archive or our nearly 100 podcasts.
