A Presentation of Progressive Jazz

Album by Stan Kenton and His Orchestra

A Presentation of Progressive Jazz is a studio album by American bandleader Stan Kenton and His Orchestra, released in 1947. The album is rooted in big band jazz with orchestral textures, extended forms, complex harmonies and prominent brass and woodwind writing, and it comes early in Kenton's career when he moved from swing to a more modern, progressive big band sound.
