Experience a fun-filled show with Jeff Sanford's Cartoon Jazz Septet performing the music of Raymond Scott, Jelly Roll Morton, John Kirby and Lenny Carlson accompanied by silent films, cartoons, dance and magic!
The Cartoon Jazz project was launched in 2003 at the Stanford Jazz Festival with the revival of charts from the great American composer Raymond Scott. Jeff Sanford tracked down many of the charts written for sextet and 13-piece band in public archives and private collections. Members of his bands have since written new arrangements and new compositions of jazz used in and out of cartoons.
