Landings New York Performances

At Dizzy’s Club, composer-arranger Miho Hazama leads the Danish Radio Big Band in a live New York City engagement, with trumpeter Ingrid Jensen featured. The set sits in the working tradition of big-band jazz, where written orchestration and individual improvisation share the same frame. Dizzy’s role in the city’s jazz ecology matters here: it is one of the few rooms that regularly presents large-ensemble work at close range. Hazama’s writing treats the band less as a volume machine than as a set of shifting chambers, which is the evening’s quiet critical point.
