Mike Tomaro - BNY Jazz Live Tuesdays, Greer Cabaret Lounge
A saxophonist, flutist, clarinetist, composer, arranger, and educator, Mike Tomaro wrote one of the definitive books on jazz arranging used by countless high school and college band directors. “Instrumental Jazz Arranging - A Comprehensive and Practical Guide” is published by Hal Leonard.
With 4 Seasons, Tomaro branches out from the music he writes for academia and focuses on music inspired by events in his life. Having been a member of the Army Blues, the Bob Mintzer Big Band, and co-director of the Pittsburgh Jazz Orchestra, Mike is at home in the big band setting and brings a contemporary vision and sound to this big band of friends and colleagues.
