JAZZ AT LINCOLN CENTER WITH WENDELL PIERCE Tuesday at 9 pm 9/3
The Music of Billy Strayhorn
9/10 Joe Lovano and Us 5 9/17 Ali Jackson with Yes! Trio and Warren Wolf Group Drummer Ali Jackson (pictured) and vibraphonist Warren Wolf -- each born into a musical family – absorbed jazz from their childhoods. Jackson occupies the hot seat with the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra and his own Yes! Trio; multi-instrumentalist Wolf studied with John Locke and became an in-demand sideman and leader. They each bring small groups to the House of Swing for a contemporary percussive double bill.
9/24 The Music of Bud Powell and Earl Hines The story of the modern jazz piano can be heard in the hands of Earl “Fatha” Hines (pictured) and Earl “Bud” Powell. Hines worked with Louis Armstrong and brought a new dimension from ragtime; Powell’s inventive, emotional soloing brought the piano into the bebop era. Pianist Marcus Roberts and his nonet take us through theses innovators of piano with songs such as Bubbling Over and Dance of the Infidels.
