ART BIG BAND

​Formed in 2006, Art Big Band is comprised of amateur and professional musicians (the latter well known throughout Lower Normandy), who share a passion for jazz orchestra music. This collective ardor translates into a wonderfully unique dynamic on stage.

The band’s vast repertoire includes traditionally played big band classics in the style of Duke Ellington, Count Basie, Glenn Miller, Charles Mingus, Oliver Nelson and Dave Brubeck, as well as more recent compositions by Steve Wiest, Matt Harris and Bob Mintzer. The Art Big Band also explores other genres specifically arranged for the ensemble.
