Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey
After years of labor, Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey’s reinterpretations of Beethoven’s 3rd & 6th Symphonies premiered in June as a project entitled “Ludwig.” The project, which rearranged Beethoven’s 3rd & 6th symphonies, was premiered alongside a 50 piece orchestra on June 12th as a headline performance at the OK Mozart Festival. JFJO’s reinterpretations channel the spirits of not only Beethoven & Von Karajan but Led Zeppelin and Radiohead as well. The band & arranger, Noam Faingold, have taken the ‘Eroica’ & the ‘Pastoral’ and transformed the symphonies into contemporary music for the young and old alike.

Downbeat Magazine calls ‘Ludwig’ “a tour de force of jazz melded with classical.” |
