Welcome to the Frank Basile 12tet!
The group casually opens the door to a sound combining the
Big Band with the improvisational freedom of a jazz quartet.
12tet offers us music emphasizing the Post Bop and Fusion
traditions. The result offers jazz aficionados and novices the
opportunity to enjoy the unique combination of Brass Quintet,
Reeds, and Rhythm Section.
Most of the members of the ensemble come from jazz
backgrounds, having played with such greats as Buddy Rich,
Lionel Hampton, Woody Herman, and Horace Silver. The band
likes to explore the era that produced the music of such great
artists as Miles Davis, Horace Silver, and the fabulous Blue
Note recordings of the ‘60s leading to the CTI material of
people like Freddie Hubbard and Stanley Turrentine.
