New Big Band Recording

Recording ProjectBig BandJazz
Written By Clarence Hines

I’m happy to announce that my latest project, a big band recording featuring some of my closest and favorite musicians is in the works. The recording will also feature my original compositions and arrangements, many of which have not been recorded or performed frequently. Having participated in virtual performances and recordings during COVID-19, I was inspired to produce a larger-scale work, taking advantage of the technological knowledge and skills that many performers have acquired/refined over the past couple of years. I plan to post regular updates regarding the process and status of the recording throughout the summer. Stay tuned.
