About the Album
“Tiny Big Band 2”, the forthcoming album from acclaimed bassist and arranger Nikos Chatzitsakos, presents the listener with a delightful array of tunes, with repertoire ranging from Cole Porter to Michel Legrand – Antonio Carlos Jobim to Donald Byrd. Tastefully arranged for 6 horns and vocals, this band packs a punch, channeling an affinity for traditional jazz with a contemporary outlook. Familiar songs are presented in a new light, inviting the listener to come on a journey as Nikos’ arrangements weave strong melodies, rich harmonies, daring solos, and irresistible grooves. The “Tiny Big Band” combines the intimacy of a small jazz ensemble with the dynamic energy of a big band sound, it highlights the individual musical voices while it unites them into a powerful collective expression.
