It’s neither a traditional big band nor an avant-garde outfit, but an eclectic ensemble playing a mix of jazz genres, with influences from world and classical music” (Georgia Straight). A who’s-who of leading Vancouver improvisers and innovators, the VEJI features saxophonists Campbell Ryga, Bill Runge, and Daniel Miles Kane; trumpeters Derry Byrne, Lorae Farrell, and Bill Clark; trombonists Dennis Esson, Rod Borrie, and Brad Muirhead; bassist Ken Lister, drummer Dave Robbins, and percussionist Jack Duncan.
Note, two sets included in ticket price for this performance.
