Jazz Dock Orchestra

 

The Jazz Dock Orchestra is a 16-piece big band, with a once-monthly residency at Jazz Dock jazz club in Prague, beginning in January 2018.

​

The orchestra is a collaboration between Jazz Dock and the band's artistic and musical directors Andy Schofield, trombonist Jan Jirucha and saxophonist Petr Kalfus. 

​

The aim of the orchestra is to perform original compositions and arrangements by its members, and also to celebrate the repertoire of some of the greatest composer/arrangers in jazz history. 

​

Projects for 2018-19 included music by Jan Jirucha, Miroslav Hloucal and Andy Schofield, as well as classic repertoire form Thad Jones, Bob Brookmeyer, Kenny Wheeler, Charles Mingus and Duke Ellington, plus international guests such as Niels Klein (DE) and Ben Wendel (US).

​

Our monthly concerts are currently suspended due to the Coronavirus restrictions. We hope to resume as soon as possible. In the meantime, please enjoy the recordings from some of our live concerts in the audio player below.
