Gift of Jazz Presents The Domi Edson Trio Plays Tribute to Ray Brown |
|
🎶 International Jazz Day 🎶 Sunday, Apr. 30 - 6:00PM
Tickets for this show are sold through the Gift of Jazz. You will be redirected to their website for ticket purchases.
In high school Ray Brown thought of taking up the trombone, but could not afford one. With a vacancy in the high school jazz orchestra, he took up the double bass. Soon his career began to take shape. Major artists started to notice him. Ella Fitzgerald (whom he was married to for a time), Oscar Peterson, Dizzy Gillespie and Charlie Parker were just a few collaborators.
The Gift of Jazz is excited to present an evening diving into Ray’s music and his impact on jazz.

| The Kent Burnside Blues Band
Friday, May 5 - 7:00PM & 9:00PM
Kent Burnside was born in 1971 in Memphis Tennessee, and spent his early years in Holly Springs, Mississippi. He is the oldest Grandson and one of the closest pupils of the legendary R.L. Burnside
Kent first heard the blues while watching his grandfather R.L. perform on the family farm to the locals. Kent used to sell sandwiches to audience members for a dollar a piece during these performances.
The first lesson RL taught Kent was that to be a bluesman you have to find your own rhythm on the guitar. You can't play someone else's rhythm - as rhythm comes from your heart. | | |

| Billy Childs Quartet with Special Guest Sean Jones
Saturday, May 6 - 7:00PM & 9:30PM
Jazz pianist/composer Billy Childs remains one of the most diversely prolific and acclaimed artists working in music today. Childs’ canon of original compositions and arrangements has garnered him the 2013 Doris Duke Performing Artist Award, a Guggenheim Fellowship (2009), a composers award from the American Academy of Arts and Letters (2015), and two Chamber Music America grants: the Jazz New Works Grant (2006) and the Classical Commissioning Grant (2019).
Sean is a musical chameleon and is comfortable in any musical setting no matter what the role or the genre. He is equally adept in being a member of an ensemble as he is at being a bandleader. Sean turned a 6-month stint with the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra into an offer from Wynton Marsalis for a permanent position as lead trumpeter, a post he held from 2004 until 2010. | | |
