About
The John Daversa Progressive Big Band is one of the leading forces of large ensemble jazz today. Composed of the world's finest musicians, the band's current project explores the vast catalog of The BEATLES through Daversa’s imaginative, genre-fusing arrangements. Long time collaborator and world renown vocalist, Renee Olstead, is featured for this unique edition of BEATLE MANIA through Daversa's creative lens."
Daversa's re-imagined arrangements expand traditional large jazz ensemble orchestration to include piccolo, alto flute, bass clarinets, oboe, bassoon, bass saxophone, piccolo trumpet, tuba, percussion, full string section, vocal chorus, and the brilliant Katisse Buckingham on spoken vocals
