trumpetAbout
The 17-piece Bill Horvitz Expanded Band will perform music from it's new CD, The Long Walk, a suite of pieces composed as a tribute to Bill's brother Philip Horvitz, who passed away of heart failure in 2005 at the age of 44. The music includes a wide range of styles drawing on jazz, funk, folk, and new music. The compositions are tightly composed and arranged and contain sections of improvisation. Each piece relates in some way to a part of Philip’s life.
The Bill Horvitz Expanded Band is:
Omid Zoufonoun – conductor
Ben Kono – oboe/English horn
Mike McGinnis – clarinet/bass clarinet...
