The Scott Reeves Jazz Orchestrais coming to Orange County Community College [SUNY Orange] on Friday, October 19, 2018. The performance begins at 7:30pm in the William and Helen Richards Theatre at Orange Hall. The ensemble has a full big band sound thanks to its instrumentation: four trumpets, four trombones, five saxes, acoustic bass, piano, drums, vocalist, and leader Reeves whose instruments are trombone and alto flugelhorn. The featured vocalist, Carolyn Leonhart, was formerlya lead back-up vocalist with Steely Dan. For jazz enthusiasts, this is the real deal – an 18 piece big band of seasoned musicians who love what they do.
 
The evening will highlight the new CD “Without a Trace” but selections from CD“Portraits and Places” will also be played. Both CDs will be on sale with signing by Scott and his musicians.
 
In addition to being a composer, arranger, and professor of music and director of jazz studies at CCNY, Scott Reeves is a member of the Dave Liebman Big Band and has played with the Bill Mobley Smoke Big Band, the Vanguard Orchestra, the Chico O’Farrill Afro-Cuban Jazz Orchestra, and Oliver Lake Big Band. He also leads Manhattan Bones, a septet that highlights four trombonists. Somehow, he has found time to write two textbooks, both published by Prentice-Hall: Creative Jazz Improvisation and Creative Beginnings.
 
Tickets for the concert are $10 and will be available in the box office starting at 6:15pm the evening of the October 19. All students are admitted free. Online purchase with a $ 2.50 service charge for each ticket is available at www.sunyorange.edu/arts_comm/ticketing.shtml
 
To get concertgoers in the mood, a sextet of jazz students – piano, electric bass, guitar, sax, flute, and drums — will start off the evening at 6:30pm with Jazz in the Gallery– free.
