The Birdland Latin Jazz Orchestra marks its debut at Birdland Jazz Club, directed by saxophonist David DeJesus, a fixture on the New York City music scene for three decades. Composed of a rotating cast of New York's top musicians, the orchestra performs classics of the Latin jazz big band repertoire, highlighting the vibrant rhythms and sophisticated arrangements that define the style. DeJesus brings deep expertise in both jazz and Latin music to this new ensemble, drawing on a career that includes work with the Village Vanguard Jazz Orchestra, the Mingus Big Band, and the Grammy-nominated Arturo O'Farrill Afro-Latin Jazz Orchestra.
