The group encourages deep exploration and evolving interpretations of Mingus’ music, providing a platform for individual artistic expression similar to Mingus' own Jazz Workshop projects. Drawing from a rotation of New York City's top established and rising musicians, the band is known for its spontaneous and creative performances. With seven Grammy nominations and a win in 2011, the ensemble continues its legacy with the legendary Mingus Mondays residency.
