Mingus Big Band

The musical legacy of Charles Mingus, who left an unfillable void in the history of jazz, is still immense, even forty years after his death. One of the greatest jazz bassists of the twentieth century, he created music that broke with tradition, shattered the norms and found true coherence in its constant contradiction. Still today, the communicative power of his works remains undiminished: discover it at JAZZMI with the Mingus Big Band, a New York-based ensemble specialised in compositions by Charles Mingus.
