Wednesday, May 29th at 9pm: The Jazz Record Art Collective is proud to present the Luke Malewicz Orchestra performing Thad Jones/Mel Lewis' "Consummation", released in 1970. ALBUM BACKGROUND: “Of the many albums recorded by the Thad Jones/Mel Lewis Orchestra, this was the greatest. This set introduced Jones' best-known compositions, "A Child Is Born," and also has a colorful rendition of his sly "Tiptoe," and finds the big band ripping the roof off during the lengthy and very exciting "Fingers." The all-star cast, which includes flugelhornist Jones, drummer Lewis, trumpeter Marvin Stamm, trombonist Jimmy Knepper, tenor great Billy Harper, the reeds of Jerome Richardson, Jerry Dodgion and Eddie Daniels, keyboardist Roland Hanna, and bassist Richard Davis, among others, is well served by Thad Jones' inventive and swinging arrangements. A classic.” ~Scott Yanow PERFORMANCES BY: Saxophone - Rich Moore, Neil Carson, Alex Beltran, Artie Black, Andy Schlinder Trombone - Luke Malewicz, Raphael Crawford, Andrew Zelm, Steven Duncan Tuba - Ryan Miller French Horn - Liz Deitemyer, Anna Jacobson Trumpet - Justin Woodward, James Davis, Chad McCullough, Drew Hansen Guitar - Terry Bartolotta Piano/Keyboard - Kevin Fort Upright/Electric Bass - Joel Kelsey Drums - Jon Deitemyer ADMISSION & LOCATION: $10 admission.
