Let them know about it!
We depend on musicians and venues to keep this calender current. It costs them
nothing to advertise here, so tell them you were looking for them
on HVmusic.com. Thanks.
The personnel of this 17-piece orchestra and vocalist are all professional musicians, whose talent and expertise in performing with a big, modern swinging band stems from the background of the individual players. Some of the members are alumni of the "Big Band" era of the 40's, 50's and 60's, coming from the popular New York City scene, as well as the recording industry. Background of others reaches into the music education area of public schools and universities. Add to this the fine vocal work of Maureen Morrissey and it makes a great mix, with everyone benefiting from this artistic diversification. Most of all, what makes this big, swinging band unique is the musician's love of performing as a group, with the great sounds that come from ensemble jazz and swing, as well as beautiful ballads. The sum total of all these ingredients equals toes tapping; fingers snapping; heads swaying; and those happy smiles on the faces of listening audiences as well as the dancers.
