notes

The New Black Eagle Jazz Band is a seven piece band consisting of cornet, clarinet/alto Sax, trombone, piano, banjo/guitar, drums and string bass.

The New Black Eagle Jazz Band, now in its 34th year, plays traditional jazz. This style covers a wide range from the early New Orleans style; of the 1920's; 1930's small band jazz; the revival of the 1940's and 1950's; and original pieces written by a number of band members.

Our repertoire of over 600 numbers includes tunes made famous by artists such as Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington and many other musicians who led the way in the early days of jazz. The breadth of our repertoire includes spirituals and gospel; blues; rags by such composers as Scott Joplin and arranged for the band; old pop tunes from the start of the 20th century to the 1960's; and any other material that we feel will fit the style of the band.

  • Its like being In New Orleans for Christmas!
    author: Carol Flores

    I LOVE LOVE LOVE my new CD! It's GREAT! I have been searching for a different kind of Christmas cd and this was the one. I wanted my kind of music in a Christmas form. There is something about this sound that always puts me in the BEST MOOD! Makes me feel like Im enjoying my holiday right there in New Orleans! thank you! So what are you waiting for?...Go buy your own copy!

  • Great CD. Makes a fantastic Christmas gift!

    It's nice to have a CD that you can put on in the background when you have people round for dinner. It definitely keeps everyone in the Christmas spirit. Great toe-tapping music!

  • Great stuff!
    author: murray

    In a market awash in over-wrought, over-produced, saccharine, goopy "X-mas" dreck, this CD stands out like a beacon in the night. Very enjoyable, catchy arrangements with just enough embellishments to make it interesting, with overloading the listener. If all Christmas music was as good as this, I'd listen to more of it.

  • Great party music!

    Love this cd! It is so festive and playful! The music really gets the mood going without being normal Christmas music. Enjoy!

  • Jazz For Christmas

    If you need a good jazz Christmas cd look no further. Keep up the good work!

  • The New Black Eagle Jazz Band is a must!

    The New Black Eagle Jazz Band Christmas is a must! Bought 5 copies for gifts and wished that I had more. Can't wait to order other NBEJB CD's from CD Baby for the New Year.

  • We love it!
    author: Diana [who loves all music and cares about Christmas music!]

    I am thrilled with this CD...just right holiday music. Saucy, sweet, adventurous but also familiar. Perfect for rounding out a good holiday music collection. CD Baby was wonderful too...

    When you've had enough Bing Crosby and Celine Dion, the New Black Eagle Jazz Band is the direction to turn for Christmas tunes. Taking the holiday spirit through ventures of classic New Orleans style jazz, blues, gospel, ragtime and standards, their thirteen track disc jiggles and shimmies through favorite songs and carols with a sassy, playful and thoroughly jolly character. It is the ultimate in Christmas jingle-jangle, singing out loud and clear with the oom-pah-pah of the tuba, a cackling trumpet and laughing clarinet. Who needs mushy top 40 Bette Midler when you can have this? Our top Christmas pick of 2005.
