Jazz Fest 2010
Introducing The Loudhorns
For those who think that Nashville, Tennessee, is
solely entrenched within the Country Music and
Americana realm, you would be dead wrong. The
Loudhorns offer electrifying live performances
and a mix of jazz classic, pop covers and original
songs.
Various members have worked with Garth Brooks,
Elton John, Paul Simon, Maynard Ferguson,
Aretha Franklin, Tony Bennett, Randy Brecker,
and Larry Carlton to complement a who's who list.
The eleven-piece group plays selections from
Ferguson's repertoire, including a disciplined but
garrulous spin on Chick Corea's "La Fiesta."
They also delve into some jazz-rock motifs, which
is a component of the trumpeter's '70s and
beyond playlist.
The ensemble's approach consists of power-
packed arrangements, accelerated by rocketing
horn choruses and a blistering impetus. The trio
of trumpeters judiciously nails those high notes,
which, of course, is synonymous with Ferguson's
mode of execution. In addition, the musicians turn
in a snappy, jazz-funk rendition of Stevie
Wonder's "I Wish," featuring the hornists' perky
accents and piercing crescendos.
Trombonists Barry Green and Roy Agee take the
lead atop a high-impact swing vamp on
"Superbone Meets the Badman." It is not about
screaming notes and wayward abandon—on the
contrary, it is an astutely engineered effort that
packs a mighty wallop amid the proper variances
in pitch and tempo.
Personnel: Steve Patrick: trumpet, flugelhorn;
Vinnie Ciesielski: trumpet, flugelhorn; Mike
Casteel: trumpet, flugelhorn; Erin Horner: French
horn; Barry Green: trombone; Roy Agee:
trombone; Joe Murphy: tuba; Ron Gilmore:
keyboards; Adam Agati: guitar; Tony Nagy: bass;
