 USE JAZZ BAND TO PERFORM RARELY HEARD ZODIAC SUITE BY MARY LOU WILLIAMS  I
 n 1945\, composer and pianist Mary Lou Williams premiered her landmark Zod
 iac Suite at New York's Town Hall. Scored for chamber orchestra with jazz 
 rhythm section\, the suite presented twelve musical portraits inspired by 
 the signs of the Zodiac. Despite the concert's success\, the arrangements 
 were never performed again.  In celebration of the 2010 Mary Lou Williams 
 centennial\, Harvard's Dudley House Jazz Band is proud to present the firs
 t large ensemble performance of the entire suite since its 1945 debut. The
  performance will feature new big band orchestrations of all twelve moveme
 nts\, based on Williams' original 1945 parts. By using archival copies fro
 m the Mary Lou Williams Collection at the Rutgers Institute of Jazz Studie
 s\, the concert will even include movements omitted from the original 1945
  performance\, allowing listeners to hear Williams' full musical vision fo
 r the first time.  The evening will open with a performance by the Dudley 
 Jazz Combo\, which will include Williams' 1929 composition 'Messa Stomp.'
