Event Description

During the early part of his career living in NYC, Joe Henderson was part of group of musicians who met weekly to “work out” on their big band arrangements. It wasn’t until near the end of his career that Joe recorded what turned out to be the highly-acclaimed and influential album, “Joe Henderson Big Band” (Verve). On May 26 we will be performing selections from that album, and Mike Allen will be “playing” Joe’s part, which involves lots of soloing.

During Mike's private studies with Joe in 1996/97 Joe often spoke with great enthusiasm about the big band album project he had just completed, and what a thrill it was to reach his goal. Mike has been a proponent of his playing and compositional style since the late 1980s and says, "I am truly honoured to have the opportunity to join the VJO, led by saxophonist (and former student) Monik Nordine, in paying tribute to Joe’s accomplishment."
