NYC: JIMMY HEATH BIG BAND AT THE BLUE NOTE
The Jimmy Heath Big Band will perform at THE BLUE NOTE (131 West 3rd Street, NYC - 212-475-8592) on Monday through Thursday, October 28th through 31st with shows at 8:00 & 10:30 pm. Jimmy Heath has long been recognized as a brilliant instrumentalist and a magnificent composer and arranger. The middle brother of the legendary Heath Brothers (bassist Percy and drummer Tootie) and the father of Mtume, he has performed with nearly all the jazz greats of the last 50 years, from Howard McGhee, Dizzy Gillespie, and Miles Davis to Wynton Marsalis. Heath's career got off to an early start - in 1948 at the age of 21, he performed in the First International Jazz Festival in Paris with McGhee, sharing the stage with Coleman Hawkins, Slam Stewart, and Erroll Garner. One of his earliest big bands (1947-1948) in Philadelphia included John Coltrane, Benny Golson, Specs Wright, Cal Massey, Johnny Coles, Ray Bryant, and Nelson Boyd. Charlie Parker and Max Roach even sat in on one occasion. Renowned for his work as a Professor of Music at the Aaron Copland School of Music at Queens College, Heath maintains an extensive performance and teaching schedule and continues to conduct workshops and clinics throughout the United States, Europe, and Canada. There is a $20-$35 cover.
NYC: BRIA SKONBERG AT THE IRIDIUM
ScoBar Entertainment presents Bria Skonberg at THE IRIDIUM JAZZ CLUB (1650 Broadway, NYC - 212-582-2121) on Tuesday, October 29th with shows at 8:00 & 10:00 pm. With her bravura performance on 'So is the Day', Bria Skonberg confirms that she is not only indeed a triple threat musician player, vocalist and composer, but also that that esteemed lineage, would heartily approve her membership. Originally from Western Canada, Bria Skonberg is a trumpeter, vocalist, songwriter and bandleader taking New York by storm. Back by popular demand, she will be featuring music from her chart-topping hit record (Currently #7 on the Jazz Charts) So Is The Day on Random Act Records. Skonberg has recorded and toured the globe as a band leader and featured artist, performing with the likes of Bucky Pizzarelli, Wycliffe Gordon, Nicholas Payton, Vince Giordano, Howard Alden, Scott Robinson, John Pizzarelli, and Victor Goines. There is a $25 cover plus a $15 food/drink minimum.
NYC: ANTONIO SANCHEZ AND MIGRATION AT DIZZY'S
Antonio Sanchez and Migration (Antonio Sanchez, drums; David Binney, alto saxophone; John Escreet, piano; Matt Brewer, bass; and special guest Thana Alexa, vocals) will perform atDIZZY'S CLUB AT JAZZ AT LINCOLN CENTER (33 West 60th Street, NYC - 212-258-9595) on Tuesday & Wednesday, October 29th & 30th with shows at 7:30 & 9:30 pm. Since arriving in New York City in the late 1990s, Antonio Sanchez has proven himself as a powerhouse to watch and remember. Extracting an incredible array of colors from the drums, Sanchez defies nature with extraordinary dynamic shifts, subtle colorations, metric super-impositions, and streamlined clave patterns. Sanchez not only dazzles with herculean technique, but, as heard initially with pianist Danilo Perez and most recently on his own live record, he swings. Through recordings such as Chick Corea's Dr. Joe, Michael Brecker's Wide Angles, Gary Burton's Quartet Live and Common Ground, Avishai Cohen's Unity, Miguel Zenon's Jibaro, Donny McCaslin's In Pursuit, and Pat Metheny's Speaking Of Now, The Way Up, and Day Trip. Sanchez's brilliant evolution has become evident to all. Migration, Sanchez's 2007 Cam Jazz debut as a leader, topped many critics' year end polls for its outstanding musicianship and memorable melodies, and his group at Dizzy's will show what the excitement is all about. There is a $35 cover.
