I just got word that I will be spending the last week of March in Amsterdam working with the Metropole Orchestra, conducted by Vince Mendoza. I will be in Amsterdam from March 22nd through April 1st with a concert on the 28th featuring some of my original music and arrangements for studio orchestra.

“The Metropole Orchestra is the world’s largest professional pop and jazz orchestra. The orchestra consists of a complete complement of strings and a full Big Band. Renowned for its wide-ranging repertoire, the Metropole Orchestra performs chansons, cabaret as well as top-of-the-pops and film scores. Its concerts with the leading national and international jazz stars reach enthusiastic listeners worldwide. The burgeoning Dutch film industry relies on the Metropole Orchestra for its film scores and the orchestra’s fame is spreading rapidly as a main player in the international film industry. Led by the three-time Grammy Award winner Vince Mendoza, the Metropole Orchestra is reaching for the stars. “
