Celebrating the Sunnyside Records release of SONGS I LIKE ALOT, featuring Kate McGarry and Theo Bleckmann and John's arrangements of songs by Jimmy Webb, Imogen Heap, Ornette Coleman and others. "John Hollenbeck’s 18-piece Large Ensemble can explode with rhythmic drive and technical dazzle, or it can evoke serene calm, tone poetry and even prayer. It’s a big band for a new eclectic world, building on the legacy of seminal big-band composer Bob Brookmeyer and other role models. Hollenbeck holds it together with intricate drumming, compositional acumen and searing wit as he marshals the resources of top jazz improvisers.
Free and open to the public
