9th+Lincoln Bio:
The 9th and Lincoln Orchestra is a musical project aiming to marry Denver's finest jazz players with new streams in the world of big band composition; to combine the shapes and textures of the new generation's aesthetic with the standard jazz ensemble. Its repertoire bridges the gap between jazz tradition and modern musical forms. The band features the finest performers in Colorado's music scene including members ofFuture Jazz Project, The Czars, Hamster Theatre, and Jazz Faculty from all of the fine college music programs in the region.
9th+Lincoln was formed in 2005 byTyler Gilmore, the leader/conductor/and main composer for the ensemble. Inspired by his experiences at the Henry Mancini Institute he began forming the group in the Fall of 2005. Since then the band has steadily refined their sound and music library, focusing more on original music and tending toward a sound as influenced by electronic music and modern classical as standard jazz big band repertoire.
