TONIGHT IN DC: ALLYN JOHNSON SONIC SANCTUARY AT BLUES ALLEY
Native Washingtonian, Allyn Johnson will perform at BLUES ALLEY (1073 Wisconsin Avenue NW, Washington, DC - 202-337-4141) on Tuesday, May 28th with shows at 8:00 & 10:30 pm. Johnson is a multi-talented musician, composer, arranger and producer whose trademark sound gives brilliance and fortitude to the art of jazz improvisation. Allyn, a prodigy who began playing piano at the tender age of five, got his start playing piano for the youth choir in his uncle's church. There he honed his inner musical gift. While a student at the University of the District of Columbia, Allyn was mentored by the late great jazz legend Calvin Jones. At UDC, Allyn was the first recipient of the Felix. E Grant Scholarship Award in jazz performance, graduating magna cum laude 1997 with a Bachelor of Music Degree in Jazz Studies. Now Allyn has served for more than six years as an adjunct professor of music and assistant director of the Jazz Studies program before succeeding Jones as the director in 2005.
