#JazzByTheLake Monk Rowe's Five Families Ensemble

The final #JazzbyTheLake of the Spring schedule showcases Monk Rowe's Five Families Ensemble.

Directed by Monk Rowe, The Five Families Ensemble stretches the boundaries of traditional chamber ensemble combining sounds from each of four instrument groups-- brass woodwinds, percussion, and strings, with the fifth contribution from the human voice. Their repertoire is arranged specifically for the group, and ranges from Beethoven to Brubeck to the blues as well as original compositions. The Five Families Ensemble appeals to all ages by combining stellar musicianship with an engaging and welcoming attitude.

Members of The Five Families Ensemble include Monk Rowe ( woodwinds and keyboards), Scott Rutledge (trumpet, flugalhorn, and vocals), Elizabeth Ingersoll (violin and vocals), Kristen Kopf (cello and baritone saxophone) and Evan DuChene (percussion).

The event is presented by The Ontario Center for The Performing Arts Guest Curator Program, made possible in part by The New York Council for The Arts.

Ticket sales on Eventbrite end at 1pm the day of the show but tickets will still be available at the door.
