slobluesine Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 anyone in the cambridge area interested.... please email Michael Kilpatrick... [email protected] There are a a couple of pieces with bass solos and we do a variety of Ellington from mid-1930s through to the 1960s. I need a double bass (not electric) who can read and use chord charts, to accompany the 17-piece big band. All the music is authentic and original Ellington (I work with his original manuscripts which are studiable at the Smithsonian in Washington DC) and so my band has a fairly unique repertoire amongst big bands.

slobluesine Posted June 4, 2013 Author Posted June 4, 2013 i posted this for Michael cos i cant do the gig, so any Q's should be sent to him folks. [email protected] Quote
pete.young Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 I might be able to do this, but I'm not going to contact Michael to ask him when the gig is. I think at the very least you have to give us the date, so that we don't waste his or our time. Quote
