ICYMI: The Queen's Cartoonists is a jazz band with elements of classical music, comedy and clowning that performs music live to animation, both old and contemporary.

The Queen's Cartoonists perform at the Miller Symphony Hall in Allentown, PA on November 22, 2019.

Playing music to visual media is not a novel concept. In fact, whole symphony orchestras tour the world performing to blockbuster movies like"Harry Potter" and"Lord of the Rings." What the Queen's Cartoonists offer is a more unpredictable experience. The audience has no idea what music they will hear or even what cartoons they will watch, and what elements of comedy may be added.

The band consists of five permanent members and a rotating cast of three bass players. In addition to Pierson on piano, Rossen Nedelchev plays drums, Drew Pitcher on woodwinds, including tenor sax, bass clarinet and flute; Mark Phillips on clarinet, soprano sax, piccolo and flute, and Greg Hammontree on brass, including trumpet, trombone, and tuba."I want it to look like there's 30 people that are going to come out and then there's only six," Pierson says.
