Bands
Jack Soref
Duos/Trios/Quartets/Quintets
are a modular collection of ensembles that revolve around the longtime musical partnership of Jack Soref, and his many, truly wonderful musical compatriots on the Boston music scene.
Reaching both forward and back in time, these bands always pay homage to the music of Django Reinhardt while simultaneously enriching the tradition, with Jack's own compositions, and other surprising additions to the common repertoire.
The chemistry of the musicians hand picked for each, concert and event always yield a fertile musical dialogue, and many wonderful surprises.
