Big Band Jazz Maresme, it's been ten years ahead of this project ... how is it possible? with the bureaucratic "sticks on the wheels" and other things that we encounter. Also, of wanderings, little institutional support and programmers are disappointing. There is only one explanation: we are crazy to touch and suffer from anxiety if we spend too many hours without contact with music. At the same time we also believe that we do a pedagogical social function, defending and showing this music that we like so much, jazz.

In these 10 years, the Big Band has evolved, has compacted its sound and currently has the ability to reach the repertoires of the different projects, much faster than at the beginning. Also, individually, we have evolved, as musicians, because we had to be at the level of demand that the orchestra, directed by Gerard Nieto, asked. As the director said at the beginning "we have to be a professional jazz orchestra, capable of achieving any repertoire or project" (he said nothing of: "in a short time and few essays" that we usually do, because as in all the rest of the things of life it always goes away at the last moment: the scores arrive late or it is difficult to coordinate 17 people (worse still: 17 musicians !!) to find the time to try.

Finally, to acknowledge, we have to know previously and as we said before, humbly, we believe we can do this teaching role, presenting intitulating proposals to help you get to know this music a bit more. (Translated from Spanish.)

For this project, we had the privilege to collaborate with two internationally renowned artists. The virtuoso Italian trumpet player Fabrizio Bosso and the elegant and sensual French singer Tricia Evy.

Fabrizio Bosso is an energetic musician with a dizzying agility and speed. His spectacular and powerful sound contrasts with his sweet and warm tunes. All these combined makes him a unique and exceptional musician. A regular trumpet player of well known record labels such as BLUE NOTE, VERVE (Universal) or EMI.

Tricia Evy is, at the moment, one of the most requested voices worldwide, due to her unique and personal style. Her elegant, warm and sensual voice brings us back to the 30’s. An era framed by great singers such as Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday …
