Greetings
friends and fans of smooth jazz! And thank you for visiting the
official web site of The Smooth Jazz Ensemble. Playable music demos are
available via the hyperlinks in the top and left margin of this page.
The Smooth Jazz Ensemble plays Grover Washington, Herbie
Hancock, Jobim, Santana -- all the greats! Our contact
info can be found here.
No wonder this band's
vocalist was invited to perform with Tower of Power in Lake Tahoe,
Nevada! We're talking about that quality sultry singing voice of Mr. Cliff
Lopes. He also plays drums for our groovin' rhythm section -- the Smooth
Jazz Ensemble's drum and bass make up a rhythm section that locks up to tight,
infectious, feel-good groves. -- fun!
This very hot section
includes the smooth jazz progressions of keyboardist, Tom Wider, a veteran of
the San Jose Jazz Festival and Harrah's Club in Reno. This
biologist-turned-pianist proves to be one formidable jazz cat!
And then there's some
sexy smooth tones from that sleepy sax blown by Jonathan Whitney. The sound from
this sax man bears witness of the influences of Stan Getz, Paul Desmond, as well
as traces of Miles Davis, Herb Albert, and Astrud Gilberto.
Here
are some things that other people are saying.
For more info on each of the ensemble members, simply
look to the images in the left margin and click on their
friendly faces. :)
So steal a couple of
minutes and review our info and listen to our
samples. You'll be glad you did.
