Editorial Reviews
George Kanzler, Newark Star Ledger
"At its burly, boisterous best, the Nonet has the drive and excitement of the midsize bands Charles Mingus recorded with"

Product Description
"How's That?", the debut cd recording by the Mike Kaplan Nonet, bridges the gap between modern big band and small group jazz. The band spotlights the highly inventive and exciting compostions and arrangements of Kaplan, performed with fire, precision, spunk and sensitivity by an ensemble of top NYC area improvisers (most of whom have been with the Nonet for over 10 years). The Nonet features 6 horns out front and a flexible, intuitive rhythm section.
