JazzPro Monster Series presents the Dan Jordan Quartet

 —  —

Blue Bamboo Center for the Arts, 1905 Kentucky Ave, Winter Park

When musicians compliment each other, they use the term “monster.” It’s the highest praise. It means you are playing at the top of your game. We’ve decided to create a new series featuring the monsters who live and work among us, and we’re making those shows available to their biggest fans… musicians. Our JazzPro series will take place on weeknights, so that other musicians (normally working on weekends) can attend, with special discounts for professional musicians and students. Muggles (non-musicians) also welcome.

Daniel Jordan is a passionate and creative tenor saxophonist and flautist. He joined Maynard Ferguson’s band in 1982 as the tenor soloist. With Maynard, Daniel played with Eddie Gomez, McCoy Tyner, Al Foster, Slide Hampton, Billy Eckstine and Mel Torme.

Daniel was chosen to join artist in residence Elvin Jones at the Atlantic Center for The Arts for a 3 week residency in 1985 and played lead alto with Sam Rivers Big Band until Sam’s transition. While living in New York, Daniel toured the world playing reed 1 with Natalie Cole and toured nationally with Michael Wolf and Badal Roy.

Daniel was Judson Green’s Musical director for 30 years and played with and recorded Larry Coryell’s last album Barefoot Man: Sanpaku.

Joining Dan are Beau Cornelius (from Miami) on piano, Michael Ross (from Sarasota) on bass, and Walt Hubbard (from Orlando) on drums.
