Morchestra Big Band

Active since: 2016

I've always loved the power and sonority of massed instruments and had great times playing in big bands right from the start in the 1970s, when Harry Murphy would take time off from repairing horns at Devine's Music in Framingham MA to assemble a disparate mixture of players to run Sammy Nestico charts. (By "disparate" I mean that beginners like me were sitting between some amateur accordion player and tenorist Jackie Stevens, who'd spent years touring with Woody Herman.) I played for years in Full Faith and Credit and the Contemporary Jazz Orchestra, terrific bands
