In Full Swing – Livestream February 18, 2021 LiveEvents February 13, 2021 1055 In Full Swing Orchestre National de Jazz Montréal In planning this second concert in the Soloist Series, trombonist and composer/arranger from the ONJ Taylor Donaldson first reflected on what drew him to jazz and big band music writing. The bright sound and power of Orchestre, the magic of jazz rhythm, melody and harmony coming together to capture the imagination, and that kind of playful camaraderie (and just plain crazy fun!) that comes from playing swinging pieces with friends. For this occasion, the ONJ invited members of Taylor’s big band to join the group, to present a program of new original music written in this spirit. Trombonist, Composer and Arranger – Taylor Donaldson Conductor – Samuel Blais Saxophones – Benjamin Deschamps, Michael Johancsik, André Leroux, Frank Lozano, Philippe Côté Trumpets – Jocelyn Couture, Lex French, Dave Mossing, Bill Mahar Trombones – Dave Grott, Richard Gagnon, Bob Ellis Piano – Gentian MG Double bass – Levi Dover Drums – Guillaume Pilote Live webcast Thursday, February 18, 2021 at 8:00pm On Demand webcast From February 18 until February 28, 11:59 pm To purchase your ticket visit: www.onjm.ca
