The Capitol Bones All-Brass Big Band has been performing A Stan Kenton Christmas for over 15 years performing the original works of Stan Kenton, Ralph Carmichael, Mark Taylor and they have added new arrangements to the repertoire. This is the only band that has mellophones in the place of saxophones just as the Kenton Band intended.
