"Saxophonist Tobias Hoffmann conducts a large jazz orchestra through a series of original charts. The five reeds, 9 brass and four rhythm teams are tighter than a hipsters skinny jeans." George Harris/JazzWeekly.
This 2024 release follows the orchestra's 2022 debut album Conspiracy, and Tobias led a 2019 nonet release Retrospective. Tobias' website ; Discogs.

rhythms in the service of music that is both resourceful and pleasing." Jack Bowers/AllAboutJazz. Discogs.

The orchestra plays the title tune from the new album. A cool one.
And the album closer. A hotter one. 😎
