Size Effects - (Mostly New) Jazz for Big Bands and Orchestras, Part 4 [Mondo Jazz 164-2]

In the early days of jazz, bands larger than a septet were called an orchestra. Nowadays jazz orchestras and big bands are much larger than that, like those we feature in our final instalment of our mini-series dedicated to (mostly new and upcoming) releases by big bands and orchestras which can be found at the intersection of beauty, fun and mischief.

The playlist features: The Louis Cole Big Band [pictured]; Jazzrausch Bigband; Brussels Jazz Orchestra; Chris Potter Underground Orchestra; Django Bates, Norbotten Big Band; Julian Siegel Jazz Orchestra; Michael Moore; Tim Hagans; Terraza Big Band; Webber/Morris Big Band; Andrew D'Angelo's DNA Orchestra; Gard Nilssen Supersonic Orchestra.

Happy listening!
