The Big Jazz Thing

The 50th release of the series collects an "All-Star Band" from 10 years with no fewer than four ECHO prizewinners! It presents eight compositions of the participating musicians. Most of the pieces have already been on the respective CDs of the composers, but now appear in a new look. Stefan Schultze, bandleader of "Oktoposse" (Vol. 6) and arranger in big demand for large bands has tailored the arrangements of "Big Jazz thing" to custom-fit and contributed a piece of his own as well. As a result, almost a big band sound was created, which is crowned by the performances of the soloists.
