The Dave Mcmurdo Jazz Orchestra
Marking the tenth year since Canadian trombonist/composer/arranger Dave McMurdo has been able to keep his irregularly assembled 19-piece orchestra in fine fettle, if not in actual paying gigs, this two-disc set should alert many stateside and European ears to its potential as a festival attraction.Dave Mcmurdo Live at the Montreal Bistro from April 14, 1992 to April 18, 1992.In these well-programmed songs for baritone, Gentle Lady, features two distinguished composers of the 20th century whose working lives were centered in Western Canada.
