The Jazz Voyager
The Jazz Voyager is heading to Logan Airport in Beantown for a summer experience at the famous Scullers Jazz Club that has been a jazz landmark in the city since its founding in 1989. Led by jazz impresario Fred Taylor, the 200-seat club offers spectacular views of Boston’s skyline and the Charles River that serve as the perfect backdrop for world-class entertainment you won’t see anywhere else in Boston.
This week I’ll be enjoying NEA Jazz Master saxophonist Kenny Garrett. His illustrious career includes hallmark stints with Miles Davis, Art Blakey and The Jazz Messengers, Donald Byrd, Freddie Hubbard, Woody Shaw and the Duke Ellington Orchestra. With a heralded career as a solo artist of more than 30 years ago, he is easily recognized as one of modern jazz’s brightest and most influential living masters.
The venue is located on the ground floor of the DoubleTree Suites at 400 Soldiers Field Road, MA 02134. More information can be obtained by calling 617-747-2261 or by visiting scullersjazz.com.

Acclaimed by such publications as the Wall Street Journal and the NY Times, and Tatiana performs regularly in New York City, and around the world, with performances at The New Orleans Jazz Festival, Jazz Aspen SnowMass, SummerStage NY, Riverboat Jazz Festival (Denmark), Bahrein Jazz Festival, Le Méridien (Paris), Tanzcafe Arlberg (Austria), Jazz aux Sources Festival (France), Le Bal Blomet (Paris), Cully Jazz Festival (Switzerland), Lincoln Center’s Midsummer Night Swing, Deva Jazz Festival (Romania) and Jazz at Lincoln Center.
