About the event
Following on from the sell-out success of the Ella Fitzgerald tribute last year, the Dunedin Jazz Club now pays tribute to the life of American trumpeter and producer Quincy Jones, who amongst other things, arranged the music for the classic 1963 Verve records album, Ella and Basie. Under the musical direction of Bill Martin, the Dunedin Youth Jazz Orchestra will perform six classic arrangements penned by Jones for Ella Fitzgerald and the Count Basie Big Band. At the front of stage will be rising star Maya Satake, an award winning local singer who has emerged as the most significant new vocal talent in the field of jazz since the inception of the club. In the second set, the band will play a variety of contemporary compositions featuring Satake and leading instrumentalists in the band.
