Jazz lovers know that no one wrote an arranged music like Edward Kennedy "Duke" Ellington. The Ladies First Big Band & Combo, together with vocal group The Buffalo Dolls, take the stage for one night to feature Ellington's work with 'A Tribute to The Duke.' This big band, created by award winning bassist Jennifer May, is a 16 piece all-female jazz ensemble. Featuring saxophone, clarinet, flute, trumpet, flugelhorn, keyboards, bass and drums, this group delivers a rich, lively sound, the way this music was meant to be played and heard. Vocal trio, The Buffalo Dolls elevate these classic songs to musical perfection with a luxurious harmony reminiscent of the Andrews Sisters. Ladies First Jazz & Big Band together with The Buffalo Dolls was recently awarded the 'Most Memorable Jazz Performance of 2019' in the annual Jazz Buffalo Poll. The Big Band & Combo have previously won the 'Best Jazz Big Band,' 'Best Jazz Large Ensemble' and 'Best Small Jazz Group' respectively, by the Buffalo Music Awards. You won't want to miss this magical evening of music!
