October 24, 2023 @ 7:30pm
Sean Imboden is an American saxophonist and composer. Sean’s music pioneers forward-thinking, original compositions, and presents cutting-edge live performances. Sean has recorded with GRAMMY-nominated artists Steve Allee and John Raymond, and performed with jazz luminaries Slide Hampton, Sean Jones, Emmet Cohen, and Valery Ponomarev (of Art Blakey’s Jazz Messengers).
A long-time member of the Indianapolis-based quartet Tucker Brothers, Sean plays on the band’s three critically-acclaimed albums. An active sideman, Sean has performed on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon and with the Radio City Music Hall Orchestra, the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra, the Buselli-Wallarab Jazz Orchestra, Aretha Franklin, The Temptations, Barry Manilow, Johnny Mathis,
Idina Menzel, Kenny Phelps, Walt Weiskopf, and Pharez Whitted. Before turning his focus to jazz, Sean toured internationally for many years with various Broadway productions, and as a featured soloist with Blast II. Sean is currently on faculty at Butler University and Ball State University, and previously taught at the Jacobs School of Music at Indiana University. Sean also works with students around the world through his online Virtual Studio. The Sean Imboden Large Ensemble is a 17-piece modern jazz big band comprised of many of the best jazz musicians and educators of central Indiana. Consistently presenting innovative new music along with unique arrangements of standards, this group features top-tier soloists and a fresh approach to the traditional big band instrumentation.
This performance is free and open to the public, no ticket is required.
