Mr. Ho's Orchestrotica is the only 21-pc big band performing the space-age pop music of Juan Garcia Esquivel. Led by Artistic Director and Arranger Mr. Ho, the group has meticulously transcribed the "king of space-age bachelor pad's" arrangements from the original recordings.

The Orchestrotica Mini is a smaller, intimate group performing exotica, tiki, and mood jazz. Led by Mr. Ho on vibraphone, this group performs new music by Mr. Ho as well as the classics by artists like Martin Denny, Arthur Lyman, and Milt Raskin. Get on our mailing list for info (below).
