The New Orleans Jazz Orchestra was founded in 2002 by then 24-year old trumpeter, composer and bandleader Irvin Mayfield, who serves as its artistic director.
The most recent performance, held on Nov. 21, 2008, centered on soloists, such as Ed "Sweetbread" Petersen, and addressed key issues of the day such as post-Katrina stagnation, the price of gass and the ongoing financial crisis. The concert also featured vocalists, including John Boutte, Johnaye Kendrick and Lion "Chocolate" Brown. Many of the songs from the concert have been included on this CD, the debut recording for The New Orleans Jazz Orchestra. We titled this CD "Book One," because it will be the first of many that tell the story of our beloved city, the birthplace of jazz. We hope that you enjoy the music and that it inspires you to assist in our recovery by visiting New Orleans soon. (Irvin Mayfield)
"The easy-rolling rhythms and forthright brass playing have been the city's trademark for generations. In particular, Mayfield's composition "Creole Thang", featuring the astonishing clarinet of Evan Christopher, is a triumph, joining the present seamlessly to a glorious past." (guardian. co. uk)
"In 2010, Irvin Mayfield and the New Orleans Jazz Orchestra won the GRAMMY award for Best Large Jazz Ensemble with their release Book One." (worldvillagemusic. com)
"This album has an emotional power and depth of writing / arrangement content that invites comparison to similar efforts by such past giants of jazz orchestration as Duke Ellington, Count Basie and Charles Mingus, but Mayfield balances the big band material with some contemporary R&B and even an Afro-Cuban jazz composition. It’s all about New Orleans, from its inspiration to its performance." (offbeat. com)
