Can You Dig It?Groovin’ Hard celebrates the Big Band Renaissance that began in the mid 1960s with the emergence of The Thad Jones-Mel Lewis Orchestra, Buddy Rich and Don Ellis among others. Many of the young musicians who had benefi ted from Stan Kenton’s Jazz Education efforts were beginning to come of age and a whole new era of Big Band Jazz
was born. Groovin’ Hard gathers an incredible array of star soloists and arrangers who all played signifi cant roles in this Big Band Renaissance. It’s another very special event with many one-time-only concerts and I look forward to having you join us.
