When Miles Met Monteverdi

Let us take you on an exploration into the world of 17th Century Jazz. When one looks at the practice of written out improvisations from composers of the 17th century (often called divisions or variations) and the improvisation practice of jazz artists the similarities between the two disciplines is unquestionable. We’re excited to share our blend of these two musical practices that have a unique way of existing together. This fusion program will include jazz renditions of early music classics such as Greensleeves and John Come Kiss Me, featuring composers such as Pachelbel and Monteverdi and we'll throw in a few jazz standards for kicks. 
​Curious? Have a listen!

Matthews brought an improvisatory flair to long arcs of intricate, virtuosic passagework, all executed with nimbleness.
~ Boston Globe

Peter Maund played various percussion instruments with considerable taste and (as far as scholarly discernible) stylistic authenticity... technically adroit and rhythmically solid.
~ 
Los Angeles Times
Tsatsanis...is dramatic in her deliveries, bringing the text to life with dynamics, ornaments, artful use of vibrato and a constant connection with her audience. The woman speaks volumes with a single arpeggio.
~ Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

Whittaker…enriched the music and showed how different ways of musical thinking overlapped.
~ Third Coast Digest (Milwaukee, WI)
Collier...is so well-equipped academically that his sleight-of-hand solos already are a fascinating study.
~ Los Angeles Times

…the nuanced beauty and character of John Lenti’s tone reflects a profound identification with the music and the mood.
~ Gramophone
