The Village Vanguard Orchestra, and the Monday Night concert tradition, was founded by the late jazz composer, trumpeter, and band leader Thad Jones along with his co-leader, the incomparable jazz drummer Mel Lewis.  Jazz Ensemble I will perform the compositions of Thad Jones, Bob Brookmeyer, Jim McNeely, and other composers who have written for the Village Vanguard Jazz Orchestra on this February concert.
