The Favorites Jazz Quintet Jazz Band from Baltimore, MD

THE FAVORITES JAZZ QUINTET Is a traditional jazz quintet patterned after some of the famous legendary hard bop jazz quintets of the 60s, 70s, and 80s. Our instrumentation includes piano, bass, drums, trumpet, and saxophone. I am the trumpet player and the leader. Our original music, taken from our two recent CDs "Transitions' and "Movin'," touches on several contemporary jazz styles, including Latin jazz, jazz-rock, fusion, smooth jazz, funky jazz, and hip hop influenced jazz. The primary goal of our group is to create and perform music that resonates with all music lovers - the casual jazz listener who likes to dance and move to the music, the informed jazz aficionado who takes pleasure listening intently to the musicians, and those who simply enjoy good music!
