About the orchestra:
Lawrence Clark grew up in Camden, New York, and early on became interested in music, learning to play the saxophone at a young age. After graduating from high school, he received a scholarship to Berklee College of Music, where he specialized in tenor saxophone. Over the years, he has worked with many great jazz musicians, traveled in the USA, Europe, Asia, and Africa, and played at countless clubs and festivals. His band consists of top musicians from New York who make his seductive music vibrate. With him is the outstanding trumpeter Duane Eubanks (brother of Kevin and Robin Eubanks).

They are all famous and sought-after musicians on the New York jazz scene.
