Description
Trombonist, composer & arranger Zach Rich's Solidarity is an expansive, vivid program of original music, orchestrated for his Denver-based jazz quintet and chamber orchestra. Rich channels mentors, stage-mates and influences--from Billy Childs to John Clayton and Rufus Reid--infusing the music with a mergence of modern jazz dynamism and contemporary classical counterpoint, while his playing resonates with a warm, soulful lyricism and crisp rhythmic pop. Whether working regularly in saxophonist Remy LeBoeuf's groups, performing with his own bands or composing for the Dallas String Quartet, the New York Youth Symphony, or the Colorado Jazz Orchestra, Zach's ongoing trajectory as a compelling musical voice should be an inspiring one to watch.
Zach Rich's works have received awards from organizations such as ISJAC, the Jazz Education Network, ASCAP, ASMAC, Downbeat Magazine, Pathways to Jazz, the Helsinki Jazz Orchestra, and Jazz at Lincoln Center.
