New release on Jazzheads: NYJazz Initiative - Mad About Thad
New release on Jazzheads, Mad About Thad showcases the astute talents of NYJAZZ artists performing their progressive arrangements of Thad Jones repertoire, whose songs are a staple for jazz education institutions. It’s time to be Mad About Thad!
‘Thad Jones had a sound that is timeless. On his horn and through his music his ideas were profound and personal, and it is evident that his impact and inspiration are strong and clear on Mad About Thad. NYJAZZ plays with perfection, as the new orchestrations by Rob Derke of some of Thad’s most beautiful compositions are full of wonderful solos by some of today’s most expressive musicians on the NY scene’ - Joe Lovano.
