Trombonist Alan Ferber, 30, was born in Oakland, CA and raised in the surrounding Bay Area. Alans musical blood extends from a long line of performers in his family. His brother is currently one of the top-call jazz drummers in NYC and his mother is an accomplished singer, pianist, and guitarist. Alans professional music career began in Los Angeles after graduating with an economics degree from UCLA in 1997. He performed regularly or toured with the bands of Les Brown, Bob Florence, Kenny Burell, Gerald Wilson, Louie Bellson, Jack Sheldon, Woody Herman, Brian Setzer, Vinny Golia and Bobby Caldwell.
Upon moving to NYC, Alan has gradually built his reputation as a "skilled (and) imaginative" trombonist, well versed in both ensemble and solo playing. He has been sought out to perform with some of the greatest jazz musicians in the world including Kenny Wheeler, Lee Konitz, Don Byron, Charlie Hunter, Bennie Wallace, Anthony Wilson, and John Hollenbeck. On the local scene, Alan is involved as a sideman in many of the citys most exciting up and coming bands including the Dan Pratt Organ Quartet, the Sanford/Schumacher Sound Assembly, the Bill Mobley Space Time Orchestra, the Andrew Rathbun Big Band, Gary Morgans Panamericana, the Alexis Cuadrado Sextet, and the Michael Blanco Quintet.
In addition to jazz, Alan has performed extensively in other genres. He has worked with Poncho Sanchez Latin Jazz Band, Dr. Dre, The Temptations, Martha Reeves and the Vandellas, the Paragon Ragtime Orchestra, Nancy Sinatra, They Might Be Giants, Michael Buble, Paul Anka, Ed Palermos Frank Zappa big band, the Argento Chamber Ensemble, and Broadway shows including The Producers, 42nd St., Oklahoma!, Fosse, and Dirty Rotten Scoundrels.
Most of Alans focus has been devoted to his own nonet project. This group, comprised of some of the brightest young talent in NYC, serves as an outlet for new works and arrangements for mid-sized ensemble. The instrumentation includes trumpet, trombone, alto sax, tenor sax, bass clarinet, guitar, piano, bass, and drums. Alan has performed with the nonet in several venues around the city and has recorded a collection of new compositions presented on this CD. As Don Heckman of the Los Angeles Times stated in a concert review of one of Alans performances, "(Ferber) was sounding ready to groove into the new millennium." How right he is.
