Jimmy’s Jazz & Blues Club, Portsmouth (NH) NEA Jazz Master & GRAMMY® Award-Winning Jazz Producer, Composer & Trombonist DELFEAYO MARSALIS & THE UPTOWN JAZZ ORCHESTRA are one of the best Big Band Jazz Ensembles in the world today. Delfeayo Marsalis is one of the top Trombonists, Composers & Producers in Jazz. In 2008, Delfeayo formed the Uptown Jazz Orchestra, a highly entertaining ensemble that focuses on maintaining important jazz traditions such as New Orleans polyphony & spontaneous arrangements. ”One attribute is a percolating rhythmic palette — relentless funk and gospel grooves, ebullient second-line syncopations, Afro-Caribbean-flavored street beats, undulating old-school press rolls, the distinctive flow of nouveau swing. Then there’s the breathe-as-one synchronicity of the woodwind and brass sections honed during more than a decade of Wednesday gigs at the eminent New Orleans nightclub Snug Harbor,” states DOWNBEAT MAGAZINE. |
