who’s in the band?
Some old, some young, all keen as mustard and a bit talented.

The Big band is not deafening; we don’t have mikes shoved down the bells of the saxes and brass. We play dynamically, soft as well as loud, slow as well as fast.

The repertoire includes many gems of jazz,, classics from Basie and Ellington and Gil Evans that don’t deserve to be forgotten.
As our most recent recording is titled “It Cam Be Arranged, ” anything from , Schroder originals to popular film themes, classical, veering into music from serious composers like Bach, CPE Bach, Mozart,and Grieg as well as Cuban, Brazilian and Afro;
The possibilities are endless.

This time there will be two tunes that couldn’t possibly qualify as “greatest hits (we don’t actually have any , anyway) because they are brand new!
They are pieces to feature members of the band, one who curiously will be abnsent on the night. World premiere’s?
not exactly, first readings of some original big band ditty, more like.

come along and check them out.
