Where did that time go listening to them,
Just four of them playing such good music,
Songs from the past into my heart did thrum,
And brought to me beauty that did so stick.
They played the music from within their hearts
Straight into the being that was in me,
Only the four of them playing their parts
With a wonder that set all our thoughts free.
So Swing from Paris keep swinging away
With the glorious music that you play
Bringing the smile and goodness to our way
And we’ll return and see you another day.
Such a wonderful time you brought to all
That filled us with the wonders of your call.

You're welcome
Swung high enough that nothing dipped in the Channel in the swinging! Next bring the choir over to the continent for some Norman cantatas. A worthy exchange of beauty and talent.
Thank you arqios, the choir is coming.

Where I'd ignorantly classified jazz as saxophone music, you hereby enlighten me, thank you very much, Sir. What I love about this particular number of yours is how perfectly it illustrates the delicious beauty of this genre, crafting vignettes of reality and tendering them to savour in a trice. Beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and poignancy. Thank you very much for sharing.
Thank you Missy. No jazz isn't just saxophones, it has so many different types and I have been listening to them all my life along with other types of music. As I say to people "So much music, so little time."

I;m going to hazard a guess this is about a string quartet, my favorite grouping. If not, still is nice work.
Two guitars, one violin and one double bass, they were superb. Thank you Dan.
