Sorry, This Event is in the past!
A welcome return for this fantastic outfit who, since 1998, have been bringing together some of the area?s top musicians to create their own distinct brand of fast-moving, hard-hitting, foot-tapping contemporary big band jazz.
Nineteen of the best local jazz musicians come together and share their passion for big, bold, beautiful music.
Horn Factory perform an impressive and extensive range of contemporary big band jazz by composers such as Buddy Rich, Bob Mintzer, Quincy Jones, Oliver Nelson, Maynard Ferguson, James Morrison, Bobby Shew, Sammy Nestico and Gordon Goodwin, plus arrangements of music normally associated with smaller groups, including Thelonious Monk, Joe Henderson, Chuck Mangione, Chick Corea and Horace Silver.
Most of the charts have been composed in the last 15 years, bringing the big band genre right up to date with music that absolutely crackles with energy!
"Eighteen fine musicians on the extended Fleece Jazz stage gave us a mighty gig. I love the sound of a horn chorus, but to have fourteen of them in chorus was really something else: loved it.?
