WP Jazz Room - Scott Wendholt with the WP Jazz Orchestra

This concert brings to the stage one of the main solo voices of the legendary Vanguard Jazz Orchestra, trumpeter Scott Wendholt. He has been the lead soloist on many of the Vanguard Orchestra’s most famous pieces, including “Mean What You Say,” and a newer composition written for him by the great Bob Brookmeyer. Wendholt has also performed or recorded with Bobby McFerrin, Chris Botti, Toshiko Akiyoshi, the Mingus Big Band, Christian McBride, Cyrus Chestnut, and led the house band at the famous Augie’s Jazz Club in New York in the early 1990s. He has been featured on more than 120 CDs. His virtuosity will be paired with the William Paterson Jazz Orchestra, led for the first time by Dr. Mitch Butler, WP’s new coordinator of jazz studies.
