Larry Vuckovich

music of the new Street Scene CD including originals,
film noir classics, swinging bebop, post-bop,

blues, & more.
New Blue Balkan Ensemble, featuring Eric Golub - violin, Tommy
Kesecker - marimba, Vince Delgado -
dumbek, Buca Necak -bass, & Akira Tana - drums. Since the original
recording, the New Blue Balkan Ensemble's format has become even more
adventurous featuring modern arrangements of ethnojazz and a free
musical style. The addition of Akira Tana on
drums modernizes the
ensemble even further evoking the spirit of John Coltrane and Elvin Jones. Rhythmically, Akira and Vince create stimulating & creative rhythm patterns.
Dexter's Mode Hard Bop Quintet
is a trumpet-tenor frontline ensemble saluting the music of Dexter Gordon, with whom I had the great pleasure of working in Denmark and Austria. The hard bop quintet performs originals
of Dexter,
Sonny Clark, and Woody Shaw which Dexter recorded with Woody. This ensemble recorded live at Yoshi's featuring
tenor saxophonist Noel Jewkes and swinging drummer Matt Guggemos.
The Young At Heart Ensemble, featuring Noel Jewkes, Josh
Workman, & Harold Jones. The group features authentic straight
ahead swinging bebop saluting Lester Young, Charlie Parker, and Count
Basie. Newly added modern material includes the music of John Coltrane,
James Moody and Afro-Cuban bebop.
