“Sanabria is known for conducting a large orchestra as if it were a small combo. Despite its size and multiplicity of instrumentation, the band can turn on a dime from a concert jazz orchestra to a swinging dance band that can roar and whisper.” – T.J. English, NY Times best-selling author and jazz aficionado
