The Paul McDonald Big Band performs at Plummer Park’s Fiesta Park (dancing is encouraged). McDonald, an accomplished composer, arranger and pianist, cut his teeth as an arranger writing for the BBC Big Band and Radio Orchestra in the 1980s and then went on to arrange and compose for countless singers, performers, TV shows, radio and movies.
Showcasing the virtuosity and versatility of some of the finest musicians in Los Angeles, Paul’s arrangements and compositions aim to bring the classic sound of big band jazz into the 21st century. The show starts at 2 p.m.
