Kansas City Jazz Orchestra presents “Herd Again”
Going Out in Kansas City KC Story writes "The Kansas City Jazz Orchestra, under the direction of Jim Mair, concludes its 2007 – 2008 Concert Season with “Herd Again” – a tribute to the great Woody Herman’s Orchestras. Often referred to as the “Herds”, Herman’s orchestras were some of the most progressive big bands in jazz.
    Herman never shied away from the latest jazz trends as will be evidenced by the Kansas City Jazz Orchestra’s renditions of such favorites from Herman’s repertoire as Apple Honey, Early Autumn, Four Brothers, Fanfare for the Common Man, Woodpecker’s Ball and many more. Joining the orchestra with several vocal pieces is Kathlene Holeman, one of the premier jazz vocalists on the Kansas City jazz scene.
  Join us for an exhilarating evening of America’s original classical music – JAZZ!
  The Concerts begin at 8:00 at Unity Temple on the Plaza, 707 W. 47th Street, Kansas City, MO on Friday, April 25th, and Saturday, April 26th. Tickets are $24 to $34 – available at the Central Office: 816-235-6222 or at www.kcjazzorchestra.org or at the door."
