His ability to seamlessly translate the clarity\, precision\, and velocity of bebop onto the trombone\, while maintaining a distinctive sound\, is unparalleled. Beyond his virtuosity\, J.J. was a prolific composer\, creating numerous tunes and arrangements for albums\, and later expanding his repertoire to include compositions for movie scores and large brass orchestras.\n\n\nThis project aspires to build upon the legacy of this trombone giant by delving into his compositions. Drawing inspiration from J.J.’s vast catalog\, we explore new musical territories while paying homage to the jazz classics associated with his name. This concert promises to be an unforgettable celebration of J.J. Johnson’s enduring influence on the world of jazz!

Strictly Jazz Entertainment facilitates dialogue and collaboration between the devoted supporters of jazz and the brand new constituents – those new to the genre – for the furthering of the jazz community.
