SUMMARY:THE BLUE NOTE QUINTET
DESCRIPTION:Blue Note Records is celebrating its 85th Anniversary with a tour starring The Blue Note Quintet – a group brought together to honor the label’s rich history and pave the way for the eclectic artists of today’s roster. Gerald Clayton leads the band as Musical Director and pianist. Rounding out the group are vibraphonist Joel Ross\, saxophonist Immanuel Wilkins\, drummer Kendrick Scott\, and bassist Matt Brewer. \nSix-time Grammy-nominated pianist\, composer and bandleader Gerald Clayton earned recent recognition for 2023’s Happening: Live at the Village Vanguard. Collaborating with such distinctive artists as Diana Krall\, Roy Hargrove\, Dianne Reeves\, Terence Blanchard\, John Scofield\, Terri Lyne Carrington\, Gretchen Parlato and the legendary Charles Lloyd\, Clayton currently serves as Director of Next Generation Jazz Orchestra. \nJoel Ross continues refining an expression true to his sound and his generation. In 2019\, the vibraphonist-composer issued his anticipated debut\, Edison Award-winning KingMaker to eruptive critical acclaim. His 2020 release Who Are You? features his band Good Vibes at their most synchronous. New York Times praised the album for the ways it “speaks to a new level of group cohesion… more tangle\, more sharing\, more possibility.” \nThe music of saxophonist and composer Immanuel Wilkins is filled with empathy and conviction. Listeners were introduced to this riveting sound with his acclaimed debut album Omega\, named the #1 Jazz Album of 2020 by The New York Times. His second album\, The 7th Hand\, explores relationships between presence and nothingness across an hour-long suite. \nKendrick Scott was born in Houston. By age 8 he had taken up the drums and he later attended Houston’s renowned High School for the Performing and Visual Arts. While still attending HSPVA\, Scott won several student awards. He was later awarded a scholarship to attend Berklee College of Music. Scott has toured with Herbie Hancock\, Charles Lloyd\, The Crusaders\, Kurt Rosenwinkel\, Kurt Elling\, and Terence Blanchard.

SUMMARY:JOSHUA REDMAN GROUP
DESCRIPTION:Joshua Redman is one of the most acclaimed and charismatic jazz artists to have emerged in the decade of the 1990s. Born in Berkeley\, California\, he is the son of legendary saxophonist Dewey Redman and dancer Renee Shedroff. He was exposed at an early age to a variety of music (jazz\, classical\, rock\, soul\, Indian\, Indonesian\, Middle-Eastern\, African) and instruments (recorder\, piano\, guitar\, gatham\, gamelan)\, and began playing clarinet at age nine before switching to what became his primary instrument\, the tenor saxophone\, one year later. \nThe early influences of John Coltrane\, Ornette Coleman\, Cannonball Adderley and his father\, Dewey Redman\, as well as The Beatles\, Aretha Franklin\, the Temptations\, Earth\, Wind and Fire\, Prince\, The Police and Led Zeppelin drew Joshua more deeply into music. But although Joshua loved playing the saxophone and was a dedicated member of the award-winning Berkeley High School Jazz Ensemble and Combo from 1983-86\, academics were always his first priority\, and he never seriously considered becoming a professional musician. \nIn 1991 Redman graduated from Harvard College summa cum laude\, with a B.A. in Social Studies. He had already been accepted by Yale Law School\, but deferred entrance for what he believed was only going to be one year. In November of that year\, five months after moving to New York\, Redman was named the winner of the prestigious Thelonious Monk International Saxophone Competition. \nOver the past three decades\, the saxophonist\, composer\, and bandleader has consistently demonstrated how to honor music’s verities while expanding its reach in contemporary settings. On 2023’s where are we\, Redman delivers one of his most challenging and compelling albums to date\, in a program featuring typically brilliant supporting partners and (in a first for Redman) built around a dynamic vocalist. \nGabrielle Cavassa – voice\nJoshua Redman – tenor saxophone\nPaul Cornish – piano\nPhilip Norris – bass\nNazir Ebo – drums

SUMMARY:SPIKE WILNER\, PAUL GILL & ANTHONY PINCIOTTI
DESCRIPTION:Michael “Spike” Wilner was born in New York City and started playing piano at an early age.  He was inspired by a television program about the life of Scott Joplin to learn to play Ragtime Music.  He perused this art form throughout high school and performed Joplin’s “Maple Leaf Rag” at the St. Louis Ragtime Festival.  Although it was an informal appearance it\, nonetheless\, profoundly affected him and drove him to peruse a career in music.  In his high school jazz program he met pianist Peter Martin who introduced him and inspired him to learn more modern jazz. \nWilner decided to enter into the New School For Social Research’s Jazz and Contemporary Music department\, which was then in it’s first year.  Headed by the late saxophonist Arnie Lawrence\, this was an experimental forum where young jazz musicians were introduced to masters and left on their own to interact and play together.  In this fertile musical environment Wilner met and became friends with many of today’s leading jazz musicians.  Students at that time included: Peter Bernstein\, Jesse Davis\, Larry Goldings\, Brad Mehldau\, Roy Hargrove\, Sam Yahel\, Joe Strasser and many others.  It was there that Wilner had the good fortune to become the student of the late pianist Walter Davis Jr. as well as the late great Jaki Byard.  At this same time Wilner became involved at the Jazz Cultural Theater under the direction a Barry Harris and spent several years studying there. \nIt was also at this time that Wilner began to work professionally on the New York City jazz scene.  He began to play gigs in the various clubs and throughout the years has held down many steady engagements in well-known clubs.  Wilner was a house pianist at the legendary\, now defunct\, Village Gate as well as other long-gone clubs such as Visiones\, The Angry Squire and The Village Corner. In 1995\, Wilner became involved with the jazz club Smalls under the direction of owner Mitch Borden.  At Smalls\, Wilner has developed his music and his career.  He recorded a live record there “Late Night: Live At Smalls (Freshsound Records)” and now currently performs there each Sunday evening with his sextet\, Planet Jazz. \nDuring his last 15 years\, Wilner has played with many names now well known in jazz such as: Peter Bernstein\, Joe Magnarelli\, Grant Stewart\, Jesse Davis\, Eric Alexander\, Jim Rotundi\, Joe Farnsworth\, Bob Mover\, Ian Hedrickson-Smith\, Ryan Kisor\, Steve Davis\, Ralph Lalama\, Paul Gill\, Neal Miner\, Joe Strasser\, Ari Roland\, Chris Byars\, Sherman Irby\, Joel Frahm\, Omer Avital\, Stephon Harris and many others. Other professional work has included tours with the Artie Shaw Orchestra\, the Glenn Miller Orchestra and a European tour with Maynard Furgeson’s ”Big Bop Nouveu” band. Wilner has toured extensively in France as part of the Xavier Richardeau quintet.  In Paris he has also worked with bassist Pierre Boussaguet and trombonist Sarah Morrow. Wilner participated in two Thelonious Monk Piano Competitions\, one in 1989 as a finalist and one in 1993 as a semi-finalist. Wilner has worked with Wynton Marsalis on a ballet piece composed by Wynton and choreographed by Zhongmei Li that was performed at the Library of Congress.
