The best big band in europe, probably in the world

[@JS-dt1tn]

@as ter no, the soloists are not better. Probably the best big band in the tradition would be the vanguard orchestra

[@paxwallacejazz]

As a composer Mintzer's lines have that clean untangled airy 80s ish influence. But his playing seems unencumbered by anything at all.
