Steven Feifke & Generation Gap Jazz Orchestra - YouTube song - ‘I’ve Got Algorithm’

Pianist, big band composer/arranger, Grammy Award winner Steven Feifke posted his tune ‘I’ve Got Algorithm’ recently, with Steven Feifke and Bijon Watson's Generation Gap Jazz Orchestra.

YouTube: “The longstanding tradition … of hiring the ‘young guns’ for an ensemble has all but disappeared in recent years... With more than two decades between them, Steven and Bijon make the objective of ‘The Generation Gap Jazz Orchestra’ to strengthen that tradition of mentorship that has shaped and defined the jazz idiom since its earliest beginnings.”

From the New Trier Jazz Festival, Winnetka, IL, USA, 3 February 2024. See YouTube for band-members.
