Station” that warmly opened its doors the first Thursday of
each month, a new, young, enthousiastic
and innovative big band was born in October 2006.
The original idea was to give the opportunity to the quartet members
and their joining friends to start writing and arranging for a
larger ensemble (a bit inspired by Dave Holland’s quintet that
became a big band as well), in the spirit of some of the New-York
jazz clubs like the Village Vanguard, and keep a monthly performance
that would help the orchestra to
evolve.
In addition, the JSBB already played some festivals such as
FleurusInJazz 2007, StJazzTenNoode2007 and NamInJazz2008...
The repertoire is mainly composed of Michel Paré’s originals but is
growing since the other band members take the pen as well !...Jewels
from Charles Mingus, Wayne Shorter and
other essentials are played with equal pleasure.
The team is composed of young (and less young) talents from the
current Belgian scene:
Stéphane
Mercier alto sax - flute
Daniel Stokart alt & sop sax -flute
Fred Delplancq tenor sax
Vincent Brijs bariton sax
Peer Baierlein
