| South Florida Jazz Orchestra Performs Worldwide: 10/12/12 Please join our audience for another great worldwide musical performance on WLRN's South Florida Arts Beat, Friday, October 12th, 2012. Featuring the South Florida Jazz Orchestra Under The Direction Of Chuck Bergeron. Founded in 2005, the SFJO quickly became the premier big band in the area. Under the direction of former Woody Herman and Buddy Rich Big Band bassist and composer, Chuck Bergeron, the SFJO released their self-titled debut CD featuring Arturo Sandoval and Kevin Mahogany in 2008 to rave national reviews. Sandoval gave the group a regular booking in his Miami Beach nightclub where the band, comprised mostly of South Florida's leading Jazz educators, studio and professional Jazz musicians, further refined its fresh arrangements and repertoire. Now Trumpet Summit (Mama Records), the SFJO's sophomore release is hitting hard with Jazz airplay all over the country. The CD features a few golden standards and numerous Bergeron and Brian Lynch originals.
