| Description |
Devoted to the vast repertoire of the late, great Charles Mingus, this award-winning big band has been playing to sell out houses all over the world. Mingus is considered one of the most important figures in the 20th century American music. He was a prodigious composer and recording artist. However it was after his death that his brilliance as an indomitable creative force began to be fully realised. |
