Title - Communal Heart
Artist - Sean Imboden Large Ensemble

For those unaware, The Sean Imboden Large Ensemble, is a 17-piece modern jazz big band comprised of many of the best musicians of central Indiana.

Consistently presenting innovative new music along with unique arrangements of standards, this group features top-tier soloists and a fresh approach to the traditional big band instrumentation and their brand new debut album, Communal Heart, will be released in April 2025.

Sean Imboden is an American saxophonist and composer. Sean’s music pioneers forward-thinking, original compositions, and presents cutting-edge live performances.

Sean has performed and recorded with GRAMMY-winning artists and jazz luminaries, including Slide Hampton, Taylor Eigsti, Mike Rodriguez, Sean Jones, Emmet Cohen, Steve Allee, Kenny Phelps, John Raymond, and Valery Ponomarev (of Art Blakey’s Jazz Messengers).

1. Fire Spirit (8:10)
2. Dance of Inquiry (6:10)
3. Certified Organic (5:54)
4. Someone To Watch Over Us (8:50)
5. Portal Passage (8:41)

This confidently-charged new recording opens on the triumphantly soaring, cinematically-charged Fire Spirit and then we get brought forth the melodiously free flowing Dance of Inquiry, the stridently-sculptred Certified Organic, the collection rounding out on a rhythmic yearn that resides within Someone To Watch Over Us, coming to a close on the emboldened Portal Passage.

A long-time member of Indianapolis-based quartet Tucker Brothers, Sean plays on the band’s four critically-acclaimed albums. An active sideman, Sean has appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon and with the Radio City Music Hall Orchestra, the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra, the Buselli-Wallarab Jazz Orchestra, Aretha Franklin, The Temptations, Barry Manilow, Johnny Mathis, and Idina Menzel.

Sean toured internationally for many years with various Broadway productions, and as a featured soloist with Blast II. Sean has taught at the Jacobs School of Music at Indiana University, and is currently on faculty at Butler University and Ball State University. Sean works with students around the world through his online Virtual Studio.
