'Rephrygeration' was completed late 2006 with the assistance of an Australia Council Grant. All charts on 'Rephrygeration' are originals by myself (with lyrics written by Elise Beattie and Sarah Moore).
In my early days at university I remember being extremely impressed after hearing the Tim Davies Big Band play for the first time. As I sat in the audience I kept saying to myself 'one day I'm going to do that!' For years after that turning point in my life I dreamt about releasing an original music big band album. 'Rephrygeration' is the realisation of my dream and I hope you enjoy listening to it.
Our beloved colleagues!
Thank you for your friendship!
Watch us and enjoy!
We are looking for a manager, who will help us to participate major Jazz Festivals and/or book concert tours overseas.
Sincerely,
Armen Martirosian, artistic director, AJB
Hey Isaac!! Welcome to MySpace. This is where you will spend hours of valuable time becoming 'cyber-friends' with other big band leaders from all over the world. Enjoy your time off. PS - I need you to do my tax.....for lunch in return!!
