The jazz concert I saw yesterday at Bruno Walter's library at Lincoln Center on May 16, 2017 had 6 people playing 6 instruments. It was piano,clarinet,drums,trombone,cornet,and the bass. They were called Gotham Jazzmen they are the ones who played last night. The drummer didn't have a solo every song but when he did it was a pretty long solo when he got it. The drummer had some type of medal brushes that he used when he got his solo. It was pretty cool seeing those brushes for the first time and seeing someone play it.
When he was using the brushes he was sliding it on the drums and hitting it with the other one he had in his hand. I think he used the brushes so that when he was playing the drums he can do it a little quiet than playing it with the regular drums so it basically to muffle the noise. I also noticed that the piano was facing sideways to the stadium so the noise can bounce of and towards the people. Well at the end they had to end short and out of my favorite song up a Lazy River was my favorite.
