Trumpeter Steven Bernstein’s Millennial Territory Orchestra will be taking over from Butch Morris on Sunday’s in March at Bowery Poetry Club. Rooted in the early jazz bands of the ‘20s and ‘30s and living in the present, the band celebrates traditional American music, revisting the sounds of Cecil Scott, McKinney’s Cotton Pickers, Andy Kirk, Prince, Stevie Wonder and more.
The club is at 308 Bowery in New York. The shows begin at 5 p.m., and the cover is $12.
The Millennial Territory Orchestra is composed of: Bernstein (trumpet); Clark Gayton (trombone); Charlie Burnham (violin); Doug Wieselman (clarinet); Peter Apfelbaum (tenor saxophone); Erik Lawrence (baritone saxophone); Matt Munesteri (guitar, vocals); Brad Jones (bass); and Ben Perowsky (drums).
