The Smithsonian Jazz Masterworks Orchestra - Swingin' at the Pyramids

Back


Under maestro David Baker, the SJMO traveled Egypt in February 2008 to perform concerts at the Cairo Opera House, Alexandria Opera House, and at the Pyramids. At each concert, the audience rose to give standing ovations. The band also did workshops for student and professional musicians from Egypt.
