The WDR BIG BAND feat. Jeff Hamilton on drums and John Clayton on bass with the concert “Clayton – Hamilton: Cologne Reunion”. The conductor is John Clayton. The arrangements are by John Clayton. Recorded at the Kölner Philharmonie (September 10, 2019).

Many couples can only dream of such a long, varied and successful relationship. Drummer Jeff Hamilton and bassist John Clayton are on the verge of a golden wedding, so to speak. The two musicians are still bubbling with energy and zest for action. In the past, this musical powerhouse has not only driven many small formations such as the trio of pianist Monty Alexander, but also the “Clayton-Hamilton Jazz Orchestra”, founded in 1986, which has long since become one of the most important big bands in jazz. Now the two gentlemen of the WDR Big Band are paying another visit. Even though they have played with almost everything you can imagine in jazz, there is no sign of fatigue, boredom or even routine anywhere. They will prove this in the new edition of this musical summit meeting with the WDR Big Band. Recorded on 10th of September 2019 at the Cologne Philharmonic Hall.

Gerald Clayton pays homage to the painter Charles White with his recent jazz project, White Cities. Through his inventive use of music, Clayton honorably celebrates the artist. The jazz pianist formed a jazz quintet with musicians from Chicago, New York, and Los Angeles, which were all home to White.
