About The Chantilly Jazz

he award-winning Chantilly Jazz is the performing big band of Chantilly High School. Many of its dedicated musicians have pursued degrees in music performance, education and technology. Currently, Chantilly Jazz alumni attend Berklee College of Music, Juilliard, George Mason, Old Dominion, Appalachian State, University of Tennessee, Virginia Tech, East Carolina, Duquesne and many others. T In recent years, this nationally acclaimed group has been a finalist at the Essentially Ellington Jazz Festival and Competition at Lincoln Center in New York City. Other notable performances include The Washington Swing Dance Committee’s “Duke Ellington 100th Birthday Bash” in the Spanish Ballroom at Glen Echo Park and The 2003 Scholas- tic Art and Writing Awards National Ceremony at The Kennedy Center, hosted by actress and comedienne Ana Gasteyer of “Saturday Night Live.”

The Chantilly Jazz also played a promi-

nent role in the Fairfax Network educa- tional production “Beyond Category: The Musical Genius of Duke Ellington,” which aired in 50 markets across the country.

Each spring, the Chantilly Jazz hosts the Chantilly Invitational Jazz Festival. This two-day event, described by the Airmen of Note as “the premier scholastic jazz showcase on the East Coast,” features the top middle and high school jazz bands and small combos from Virginia, Mary- land and the District of Columbia.

The Mark Brandt Trio

Shaun Jurek: bass Mark Brandt: piano Russell Lucas: drums

The trio format of piano, bass, and drums has been a “traditional” configuration for small-

group jazz since the big-band swing era and before. It is often the preferred ensemble for pianists, 2014 Festival Sponsors bassists, and drummers as it offers equal creative musical exploration to each member, and in the best of circumstances, functions more like a small symphony rather than three individual jazz musi- cians. Shared backgrounds and experiences among the musicians are a plus, but such things are not as essential as a musical simpatico. From the inception of the very first Mark Brandt Trio until now, the chemistry has been evident among the players. Along with Mark Brandt, the current trio is comprised of Shaun Jurek on bass, and Russell Lucas on drums. These three musicians possess a unique ability to move effortlessly from a large variety of traditional and contemporary jazz styles and genres within a set, and often within a song, while maintaining a cohesive and lyrical sound. The most common word used to describe the music of this trio is “elegant.” Follow The Mark Brandt Trio @ http://www.markbrandttrio.com/ www.chantillyband.org
