The Big Phat Band, led by pianist/saxophonist/arranger Gordon Goodwin, combines the big-band swing of the 1930s and ‘40s with contemporary music such as funk and jazz fusion. Chapman University’s student jazz ensembles, led by Albert Alva, will open for both the Stan Kenton Legacy Orchesta and Gordon Goodwin’s Big Phat Band – and will join both ensembles for a rousing side-by-side finale. http://muscocenter.org/event/gordon-goodwins-big-phat-band/
