Music of Bob Brookmeyer

On Monday January 2, 2012, the Vanguard Jazz Orchestra 

will dedicate their regular Monday night performance to the music 

of Bob Brookmeyer who passed away on December 15.  

While Bob and his music have been a major part of the band 

since it's inception in 1966, the entire evening will be dedicated to 

music written by Bob for the band in its various forms 

(Thad Jones - Mel Lewis; Mel Lewis and the Jazz Orchestra; 

Vanguard Jazz Orchestra) over the past 45 years, and that written 

for the band's forthcoming CD.
