stein456 Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 At the risk of having very few, if any people know what I'm talking about....... The LORETTO KNIGHTS in their 1961 performance of "Summertime" HAD THE LONGEST chord or "suspension" at the coda of this song. Joe Genero arrangment, excellent performance of the Gershwin classic. If you have a chance to reference this Fleetwood classic, BRASS BY NIGHT, note that the "pedal tones" under this chord or suspension, are played on what we now call baritones. As they were the basso voice of the day. Other than that,Carolina Crown's chord at the end of their opener 08 or the end of their 09 production were quite lengthy and very effective. stein Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Medeabrass Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 I think the discussion here is on a chord sustained by the entire corps....not one with some other stuff on top of it (like R&L).Now if you want to talk longest single sustained notes...I'll give the sop soloist from 88 Star (I need to time that sucker...I think he was circular breathing), or Barbara Maroney in 84 (19 seconds on one breath...1 sec on the pickup and 18 on the sustained top note...droooollll) That would be Barry Hudson. Donnie Vandoren's right hand man while I was at Star. I asked him about that note at our reunion thinking it was circular but he said it was just one breath. The guy had (and still has) some serious lungs...somehow he found a way to stick of our alumni hornline of 150 brass...makes me laugh remembering that.

Just timed him...20 seconds total on one breath...1 sec on pick ups, 19 on the sustain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
