Together with musical directors Rick McLaughlin and Jesse Taitt, we are thrilled to announce the launch of The Mandorla Collective. Each year, a select ensemble of top Boston-based musicians will celebrate the music of a figure central to Boston jazz history whose influence continues to reverberate.

Launching this project is an exciting next step in Mandorla Music’s evolution. Since 2013, we’ve been shining a light on the extraordinarily rich and diverse jazz scene of today’s Boston. Working with Rick and Jesse to pay homage to those who’ve come before is a deep honor.

On Sunday, November 9th, in Peabody Hall at Dorchester’s Parish of All Saints, The Mandorla Collective’s debut performance will feature a celebration of the music of the late George Russell. Personnel to be announced.

To help raise funds to support this ambitious new project, we're offering a special ticket add-on option, a pre-show reception with other Mandorla Music supporters. Come learn more about this new project from Mandorla Music founder Mark Redmond, Mandorla Collective Music Directors Rick McLaughlin and Jesse Taitt, and 2025 Collective members as available.
