Steve, interesting to see it from your point of view. Seems you missed the bit where Alan showed how different saxophonists brought their personality to a piece - showing Adderley and Pepper bringing different emphasis and timing to the same phrasing. And we did play for several minutes showing how many great tunes were based on I Got Rhythm - I think I counted about ten.... But thanks for your questions! Alyn
Didn't really intend it to be comprehensive. I'm sure there's lots of other stuff I missed out, like Bird and bebop also bringing new levels of virtuosity.
As I said, it was mostly over my head, but I think most people there know there's lots of stuff based on I Got Rhythm.
This presentation was at quite a high level for the non-musician (like me). I enjoyed it though and came away (in Reithian style) educated, informed and entertained.
Me too.
