About the Album

A unique collection of music from a remarkable ensemble, 2008 Gil Evans Fellowship winner Wil Swindler presents his "Elevenet," featuring some less traditional sounds (bass clarinet, alto flute, euphonium and French horn) to augment the more traditional horn and rhythm sections. With the power of a big band and the intimacy of a jazz quartet, or even a classical chamber ensemble, Swindler masterfully combines the possibilities for a recording of compelling art-music that is somehow honestly fun!
