Instrumentalists you can recognize after 6 bars..?


Musicians you can recognize after 6 bars (of music, not pubs) even if you don’t know the piece?

Mine would be

  • Miles Davis
  • Mark Knopfler
  • Pepe Romero
  • Dave Brubeck

John Coltrane.

Miles Davis

Jimi Hendrix.

Eric Clapton.

Django.

Grappelli

Mark O'Connor, the fiddler.

I like the idea of using six bars to make an assessment of who the performer might be. You're not just hearing the head riff. You're getting a glimpse of the second, as well.
