TERENCE BLANCHARD: ABSENCE

October 21, 2022 @ 7:00 pm ~10:30 pm EDT

$30 – $45

Terence Blanchard has blown audiences away with his bands, film scores, operas, and most recently in performance with Herbie Hancock. Called “a brass-wielding force of nature” by the Los Angeles Times, the trumpeter/composer returns with his 2021 Blue Note release Absence—a powerful tribute to the great Wayne Shorter.

Teaming up with Turtle Island Quartet and his electric ensemble the E-Collective, Blanchard reimagines songs from across Shorter’s vast catalog and shares original music inspired by the legendary saxophonist—resulting in “a lush and dramatic soundscape that calls to mind Blanchard’s career as a successful film composer.” (The New Yorker).
