SUMMARY:Jazz Vespers with Leading Ladies Little Big Band
DESCRIPTION:\n\nJoin us on Sunday, May 22nd at 4pm, where the spirit meets jazz. Featuring The Leading Ladies Little Big Band directed by Casey Thomas-Burns\nCreated in 2019, The Leading Ladies Little Big Band is a 10-piece jazz band made up entirely of young women and directed by Casey Thomas-Burns, The Ladies met while studying in the Capilano University Jazz Studies Program, and after performing their first show together as a part of a school concert series, knew that they couldn’t stop there.\nThis band brings new energy to the traditional jazz style, while mixing in exciting modern-day jazz compositions, and focuses on featuring original music and arrangements by local emerging composers. The band has most recently performed at the West Coast Big Band Festival, a Swing Dance & Jam hosted by the Women in Jazz Association of BC, and at the Maplewood Taphouse. The Ladies were also granted a place in the 2020 IGNITE! Youth Festival prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.\nIn addition to being a performing ensemble, The Leading Ladies recently launched their community outreach program “LADIES’ NIGHT: Jazz Jams for Women” in April 2022. Femme-identifying and non-binary musicians of all ages and skill levels are invited to come and jam with the members of the band in a safe, female-led environment that focuses on learning and community building for the next generation of women in jazz.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBand Members:\nCasey Thomas-Burns, Director\nKayla Ferguson, Alto Sax\nBrodie Jones, Tenor Sax\nSofia Avelino, Bari Sax\nRobin Comeau, Trumpet\nAmber Tsang, Trumpet\nHayley Bennett, Trombone \nIsabel Leong, Guitar\nMackenzie Tran, Piano\nRiley Poystila, Bass\nKate Johnson, Drums\n\n\n\n\n
