New Orleans jazz clarinetist Evan Christopher teams up with pianist Emmet Cohen for some very happy jazz rooted in New Orleans traditional but open to all later styles (especially in Cohen's frequently inspired solos and comping.

Thank you for the link. It's great to see musicians enjoying themselves like that.

At 5:30 minutes, the trumpet player does something to briefly change his tone that I've never seen before. I wondered if anyone knew what that was?

It's a half-valve technique Hans - quite a common technique in jazz. There's an explanation here:

Those Emmet Cohen videos are incredible. The range of artists, styles and variety is astounding. Those guys are amazing musicians with a real chameleon like ability to play anything and make is sound fresh and new

There was one a while back with the incomparable Ken Peplowski
