From 1930 to 1945, big band jazz dominated the American music scene, shaping the cultural landscape of popular music. Though its prominence waned as small-group jazz styles gained popularity, the genre has endured, sustained by dedicated enthusiasts and an international audience. Today, many big band ensembles function as tribute bands, recreating the sounds of legendary orchestras. However, a collective of composers continues to push the genre forward with original works. Among those leading this effort is Israeli-born composer, bandleader, and drummer Dan Pugach.

Loss, we've all suffered it. Some of us more than others,some less and still yet there are those of us who've not had loss of any significance to this point. Loss, like anything else, is directly related to perspective. What may seem like a huge loss to one, is insignificant to another. People pass away, bad days do the same, they fade into the night or disappear at the bottom of one's favorite drink until they are swept away by the morning's sunrise and things are new. Some loss stays a bit longer, adding scars to our bodies until they become topographical maps of memories; reminders of what not to do or what we didn't do or should've done.
The Makin Waves Song of the Week is "Body Cast," the latest video from the North Jersey dynamic duo Tiny Cities.
