ÒGinoÕs JAZZ BAND EXPRESS!Ó
A 17 PIECE BIG BAND
IN THE TRADITION OF THE BIG BAND ERA.
ÒGinoÕs
JAZZBAND EXPRESS!Ó
is an eighteen piece jazz ensemble
that performs contemporary jazz
compositions as well as charts from
the ÒBig Band Era.Ó The power of the band
is awesome! The bandÕs contemporary sheet music is challenging
for the musicians & exciting for the listener to hear. There are also lots of improvised solos
by some of the finest area musicians; and we always take time to
play the great music you want to hear!
The history of the band goes back to 1962 when Gino
started a high school dance band,
The Majestics Dance Band 1962-1969
