Jaelem Bhate's 45th Avenue Jazz Band is comprised of 18 of the grooviest and hippest up and coming musicians in the Metro Vancouver Area. Not your Grandfather's band, we push the boundaries and your conceptions of what a big band can do. You'll have to catch a show to find out what we mean.
From the pen of 45th Avenue Jazz Band director Jaelem Bhate, hear all 12 movements of Bizet's orchestral suite reimagined for modern jazz orchestra. The concert will also include pianist John Stetch and his own spectacular takes on classical favourites.
