艺人介绍

by Jason AnkenyCo-chaired by legendary bop drummer Kenny Clarke and Belgian-born pianist/composer Francy Boland, the Clarke-Boland Big Band ranked among the top European orchestras of the 60s and early 70s. The group formed in 1960 following Clarkes relocation to Paris; originally, he and Boland — fresh off a stint as an arranger for Kurt Edelhagens German-based orchestra — teamed in a sextet setting, quickly followed by an octet; the roster continued to grow, however, and soon a big band comprised of other American expatriates and top European players was in place. After earning a reputation as a major live force, the Clarke-Boland Big Band finally made their recorded debut with the 1962 LP Jazz Is Universal; over a dozen more albums followed prior to the groups 1973 dissolution.
