Mingus Big Band
Νοσταλγική, ωμή βραδιά big band
The Mingus Big Band exclusively performs the music of celebrated American composer, bassist, and activist Charles Mingus. Established by Sue Mingus, this 14-piece ensemble features arrangements of Mingus's compositions in a larger format, fulfilling a vision he wasn't always able to organize during his lifetime. The group's dynamic structure allows for deep exploration and evolving interpretations of the music, offering a platform for individual artistic expression similar to Mingus's own Jazz Workshop projects. Drawing from a rotating lineup of New York City's top established and emerging musicians, the band is recognized for its creativity and spontaneity. With seven Grammy nominations and a win in 2011, the Mingus Big Band continues its legacy through the renowned Mingus Mondays residency at The Pocket.
