Genre
Big Band Jazz
For over 60 years, a big band has performed every Monday night at the renowned New York jazz club, the Village Vanguard. Originally known as the Thad Jones–Mel Lewis Jazz Orchestra, the group now performs as the Vanguard Jazz Orchestra. Over the decades, the band's most important composers and arrangers have included Thad Jones himself, as well as legendary figures such as Bob Brookmeyer, Michael Abene and Jim McNeely.

This pioneering group of musicians inspires everyone around the world who composes for or performs with big bands. For fans, visiting the Village Vanguard at 178 Seventh Avenue South (corner of Waverly Place) in Greenwich Village on a Monday evening is just as essential as visiting Times Square during a trip to New York.

However, you can also experience the best of this music on this side of the Atlantic at Zurich's own legendary jazz club, Moods, thanks to the Zurich Jazz Orchestra.
