Mingus Amongst Us – Album Launch – Thursday, 14th of March 2024:
The 9-piece powerhouse ensemble ‘Mingus Amongst Us’ returns to release their new double vinyl album ‘Live Foundry616’!
Charles Mingus brought fire and energy to the jazz world that had never been seen before!
His compositions and the personnel in his bands were all thoroughly steeped in the swinging blues/jazz traditions, yet fiercely modern and avant-guard for their time.
Sydney baritone saxophonist Steve Fitzmaurice has brought these compositions to life again with his arrangements of the Mingus repertoire for the 9-piece powerhouse ensemble ‘Mingus Amongst Us’.
Featuring the best jazz musicians from all over the country, ‘Mingus Amongst Us’ perfectly captures the raucous, fiery energy that Mingus and his compositions were famous for.
Fans of the band know this gig will sell out so get in there quickly to secure your ticket!
