  • Description

    Defined by a riveting array of Caribbean rhythms, Etienne Charles's first album featuring his big band arrangements is a personal triumph, but Creole Orchestra is also part of a much larger Story.

    Trumpets - Etienne Charles, Jumaane Smith (lead), Walter Cano, Anthony Stanco, Giveton Gelin (Old School)

    Trombones - Dion Tucker, Michael Dease, Corey Wilcox, Chris Glassman (bass tbn)

    Rhythm Section - Sullivan Fortner (piano/fender rhodes), Alex Wintz (guitar), Ben Williams (bass ), Jonathan Michel (bass) , Obed Calvaire (drums), Etienne Charles (percussion), Jorge Glem (cuatro), Pascual Landeau (marac)
