New York Jazz Band leader

The leader of this band has carved a successful career as one of the few bassoonists in the world that can play convincing jazz on his instrument. He performed, last summer, at the Bud Shank Jazz Festival in Washington State and went on tour throughout Pennsylvania last fall with his band, performing music from their recent CD release. This New York Jazz Band also performed last year at The Trinity Church Noontime Concert Series.

New York Jazz Band sound

This New York Jazz Band's music includes original compositions, jazz standards, Latin, jazz waltzes and rhythm and blues. Their sound has a wide dynamic range, at times like a chamber ensemble and other times like a rocking blues band. The sympathetic interplay of bassoon, vibes, bass and drums offers a unique texture.
