The Des Moines Big Band, a storied ensemble that goes back to the 1950s, has played with some of the greatest names in jazz, from legends like Clark Terry to some of the more local household names such as Scott Smith.
The Big Band is joined by Justin Kisor, a professional trumpet player and Julliard alum who currently presides as Temporary Head of Jazz Studies at Morningside College in Sioux City, Iowa.
