Bob Mintzer Big Band Live at MCG with Special Guest Kurt Elling, the first live recording of the Bob Mintzer Big Band. Vocalist Kurt Elling is the Mintzer Big Band's special guest, heightening the musical experience with his signature vocalese & improvised scatting style. Captured in state-of-the-art audio & video formats at Manchester Craftsmen's Guild, Bob Mintzer Big Band Live at MCG includes live versions of songs that appear on the Mintzer Big Band's numerous recordings over the past ten years. The set reflects Mintzer's passion for merging traditional American big band jazz to various other styles. The result is a stew of straight ahead jazz, Latin & world beats, hard bop & much more. Elling's unique & daring vocal interpretations on three of the nine tracks take both the band & the listener on a fascinating freeform journey.
