This review is from: Chops (DVD)
This documentary is about a high school jazz group that does something remarkable. The music and vibes are terrific, very well filmed and edited, not a slow moment. Recommended if interested in American jazz, education, school bands, or just an inspiring story.

5.0 out of 5 stars Chops, December 15, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Chops (DVD)
This is a MUST SEE for music lovers. The enthusiasim from the kids and the outstanding talent they possess is something forgotten in today's highschool life. Music programs are being curtailed all over the country and everyone should see this film and understand what a waste it is to trash that talent. We gave this disk to my son's high school band leader and now it's shown to all his music students..WHAT A MOVIE !!
