NYC: JIM CARUSO'S "CAST PARTY" MONDAYS AT BIRDLANDFEATURED OPEN MIC EVENT

It's the ultimate spot to mix and mingle with talented show folk and their fans. There is a $20 cover plus a $10 food/drink minimum.

NYC: TERENCE BLANCHARD E-COLLECTIVE AT THE BLUE NOTE

Terence Blanchard E-Collective performs at THE BLUE NOTE (131 West 3rd Street, NYC - 212-475-8592) on Monday, January 12th with shows at 8:00 & 10:30 pm. Trumpeter/ composer Blanchard explains the title of his 20th album, Magnetic, as a stunning variety of sounds and styles pulled together by the irresistible force of Blanchard's vision. The idea of a spiritual magnetism "is a basic concept in any type of religion," he says. "Both Christianity and Buddhism have forms of meditation - one's called prayer and one's called chanting. But it's all about drawing on those things to help you attain enlightenment in your life at the same time that you're trying to give back to the community." Magnetic gives expression to that belief through the combined voices of Blanchard's always-scintillating quintet. Its latest incarnation brings together longtime members Brice Winston (saxophone) and Kendrick Scott (drums) with pianist Fabian Almazan, who made his debut with the group on its 2009 album Choices, and its newest member, 21-year-old bass prodigy Joshua Crumbly. In addition, they're joined by a trio of remarkable special guests: master bassist Ron Carter, saxophonist Ravi Coltrane, and guitarist/vocalist Lionel Loueke. The vast array of approaches undertaken by that ensemble is striking, from the blistering bop of "Don't Run" to the fragile ballad "Jacob's Ladder;" the psychedelic electronic haze of "Hallucinations" to the urgent edginess of "Another Step." There is a $15-$25 cover.

NYC: ELI YAMIN AND EVAN CHRISTOPHER: FOR OUR JAZZ HEROES

DIZZY'S CLUB AT JAZZ AT LINCOLN CENTER(33 West 60th Street, NYC - 212-258-9595) presents pianist Eli Yamin with his longtime duo partner, clarinetist and Swing University instructor Evan Christopher on Monday, January 12th with shows at 7:30 & 9:30 pm. A passionate music advocate and community builder, an extraordinary pianist, and a jazz lover to the core, Yamin is the head of instruction for Jazz at Lincoln Center's Middle School Jazz Academy and the artistic director of The Jazz Drama Program. Tonight, he returns with Evan Christopher, a renowned and authentic performer in the tradition of New Orleans masters like Sidney Bechet. After years of sharing the stage and imparting their musical and historical wisdom upon audiences, the pair enjoys a rare level of intuitive and spontaneous communication. Both players are all about the good feelings created through jazz expression, and in Louie's Dream, they pay original, bluesy, and heartfelt tribute to personal heroes like Duke Ellington, Mary Lou Williams, and more. There is a $25 cover.
