As Dee Bridgewater of NPR’s JAZZSET remarks,
“Jazz is alive, and you can study it in Orlando, Florida.”
The Flying Horse Big Band (formerly the UCF Jazz Ensemble I) returns with a second full-length CD. Their previous release Jazz Town reached number 43 on JazzWeek’s national radio airplay chart during a 16-week stay.
With The Blues is Alright, these young performers pay tribute to musicians of the past. They also contribute to the jazz legacy with three original songs.
