Composer Mark Taylor &
Trumpeter Marvin Stamm
Featured at USF’s
Monday Night Jazz, February 25
The Monday Night Jazz Series at USF continues in February with
a return visit by composer MARK TAYLOR, a Guest Faculty Artist this
semester, leading the USF Jazz Ensemble. Acclaimed trumpeter MARVIN
STAMM, who like Taylor spent his early years with the Stan Kenton
Orchestra, will be featured soloist. This evening of big band jazz
takes place in the USF Concert Hall at 7:30 on February 25, presented
by the USF School of Music and the Tampa Jazz Club.
Mark Taylor had a remarkable career with the US Army Band
(Pershing’s Own) and the Army Blues, where he was Chief Arranger for
24 years. Prior to the Army, he wrote for Stan Kenton, who recorded
many of his pieces and gave him his start in music publishing. Taylor
has become one of the most highly published jazz composers,
influencing thousands of young musicians along the way. He has
recently released ‘To the Edge,’ with his Washington, D.C.-based big
band.
Marvin Stamm’s roots also include Kenton, with whom he
recorded five albums, before working with Woody Herman, Frank
Sinatra, and Benny Goodman, and many years as one of the most
sought-after New York studio musicians. In addition to a busy touring
schedule, Stamm maintains an active involvement in jazz education as
mentor and clinician.
Members of the USF Jazz Ensemble, the premiere jazz orchestra
at USF, look forward to welcoming you to their performance with these
two outstanding veterans of big band jazz!
