Library Jazz Band: Hitting the High Notes

Yonkers Public Library will celebrate UNESCO’s International Jazz Day with a performance by the Yonkers-based Library Jazz Band.

This exceptional performance, entitled Hitting The Low Notes, celebrates instruments from the lower end of the sonic spectrum, some not often seen in a jazz band. For this performance, the 17-member Library Jazz Band (trumpets, trombones, saxophones, and rhythm section), will be joined by two French horns, tuba, bass saxophone, and expanded trumpet and percussion sections.

For the first time, the ensemble welcomes a guest conductor. The 75-year-old jazz elder Joseph Daley will lead the ensemble as they perform his seminal composition, The Seven Deadly Sins.

Thanks to generous funding from ArtsWestchester, the performance is free to attend.
