“It’s like a language. You learn the alphabet, which are the scales. You learn sentences, which are the chords. And then you talk extemporaneously with the horn. It’s a wonderful thing to speak extemporaneously, which is something I’ve never gotten the hang of. But musically I love to talk just off the top of my head. And that’s what jazz music is all about.” - Stan Getz

Sunday, 10 October 2004
The Nova Jazz Orchestra is a project sponsered by the Nova Jazz Corporation, a Minnesota non-profit corporation dedicated to promoting and developing the arts and, in particular, modern big band jazz. The group's "lab band" format encourages members to stretch their talents by composing and arranging material for the group. The albums are the outgrowth of that philosophy. Every piece is an original composition or arrangement which was created by the group's members. From straight-ahead jazz to Latin and rock beats to unusual multi-meter grooves, the music on each album represents a wide variety of styles.
