He has amassed an amazing collection of over60,000 band arrangements, 1920s and 1930s films, 78 recordings and jazz-age memorabilia.Giordano sought out and studied with important survivors from the period: Paul Whiteman’s hotarranger Bill Challis and drummer Chauncey Morehouse, as well as bassist Joe Tarto.Giordano’s passion, commitment to authenticity, and knowledge led him to create a sensationalband of like-minded players, the Nighthawks. Giordano has single-handedly kept alive anamazing genre of American music that continues to spread the joy and pathos of an era thatshaped our nation.A Grammy-winner and multi-instrumentalist, Giordano has played in New York nightclubs,appeared in films such as The Cotton Club, The Aviator, Finding Forrester, Revolutionary Road,and HBO’s Boardwalk Empire; and performed concerts at the Town Hall, Jazz At LincolnCenter and the Newport Jazz Festival.
