Prepare for an extraordinary evening of big band excellence! The Ottawa Jazz Orchestra presents a thrilling programme featuring two remarkable suites, each lending unique sounds and styles.
Our programme begins with an exquisite “appetizer”: a delightful nonet suite penned by composer Terry Vosbein. This charming work comprises eight distinct musical creations, written for a unique 9-piece band with pairings of alto and baritone saxophones, trumpet and trombone, and French horn and tuba, all supported by a dynamic piano trio.
For our grand “main course,” we’re excited to serve up the incredible “My Fair Lady – My Way” suite, penned by the brilliant Johnny Richards. This astonishing reinterpretation of Lerner and Loewe’s beloved musical is brought to life by an 18-piece big band with a truly unique sound. Richards, a prolific Mexican-born composer, was renowned for his work with Stan Kenton and his contributions to film and television scores. This is truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity: the music for this performance has been meticulously prepared from the original, handwritten, and unpublished scores. Don’t miss this rare gem of lost music, brought to vivid life on stage!
