Portrait photos for the band When Art Lande brings his favorite musicians and people together from near and far he calls it a dream band because it satisfies a beautiful vision. Dream Band I was a grand success and Dream Band II will bring special musicians together again for Colorado audiences.

What listeners can expect from this group is the unexpected. Whether playing an original composition, a jazz standard, or an on-the-spot improvisation, they will always feature unity from skilled and sensitive listening and individuality from playing their instruments so well and knowing how to tell their own stories in the moment that will surprise us and capture the beauty and spark of each composition. Their closeness as people and vast experience of sharing the stage together over decades will make Dream Band II a rich and wonderful ride for Coloradans to experience.

Art has brought his favorite musicians and people here to celebrate music, communication, joy, and depth. Please come, listen, and meet these remarkable artists and humans.

Keith Jarrett, Chick Corea and Art Lande were the first American pianists to record for ECM records in the early 1970s. Art and Chick connected periodically over the years, always amicably and with mutual respect. To choose a set of Corea pieces was not easy, but as always, Flex brings a fresh slant to all of this music.

When Art was a young boy in New York City, he got to hear the great Oscar Peterson Trio up close at "The Embers Club." What an inspiration! Oscar's composing is much less known than his playing. He was also a great arranger, making special solo spots for bass and drums. Flex arrangements reflect Peterson's insights.

This will be a night honoring two legendary pianist/composers who greatly influenced the writing, playing, and band concepts you will hear at this concert of Art Lande and Flex.
