Sean Imboden: Into The Heart Of Big Band Jazz
Click the play button to listen
Today, the Spotlight shines on saxophonist and composer Sean Imboden.Sean spent years touring with Broadway shows and working as a sideman, but something was missing. He stepped away from a lucrative career path and took a leap, returning to Indianapolis, where he ultimately formed his 17-piece orchestra. Now that ensemble releases Communal Heart (self-released), an album that captures the community spirit Sean has built around his music, as well as his transformation from comfortable sideman to big band leader.
Sean joined me to discuss this ambitious project and share how he has created what he calls "identifiably human-made music" in an increasingly digital world.
