Roy Hargrove Big Band

Roy Hargrove Big Band is a multi-instrumental jazz ensemble fronted by trumpeter Roy Hargrove. Nineteen pieces strong, Hargrove's ensemble is a vibrant and versatile group, tackling a wide range of material and styles with equal doses of precision and passion. The seeds of the project were planted in 1995, when Hargrove first formed a big band for a New York jazz festival. His big band concept grew as he led the evolving group through a series of regular gigs at the Jazz Gallery
