SUMMARY:Strictly Jazz: The Music of Michael Brecker
DESCRIPTION:Crosstown Arts presents Strictly Jazz: The Music of Michael Brecker \nThe Green Room at Crosstown Arts\nFebruary 15\, 2025\nDoors open at 7 pm | Show begins at 7:30 pm\nTickets: $20 in advance | $25 at the door\n\nPURCHASE TICKETS HERE \nMichael Brecker was a highly influential American jazz saxophonist and composer. He was known for his technical brilliance\, soulful playing\, and ability to seamlessly blend jazz and pop elements. Brecker’s contributions to both jazz and pop music have solidified his place as one of the most important musicians of his generation and one of\, if not the most important\, saxophonists post-John Coltrane that the world has ever known. \nPaying homage to Brecker for one night only is a group led by internationally recognized saxophonist Adam Larson\, who was first inspired to pursue a career in saxophone after hearing a Brecker solo while on the way to a travel basketball game. Says Larson: “I asked my dad what instrument was soloing\, and I could not believe that it was a saxophone! I remember telling my dad that I don’t know if I’d ever get to that level\, but I wanted to try”. Such was the impetus that jumpstarted the career of Larson\, who at age 35 has recorded on dozens of albums\, releasing ten under his own name. Frequently touring the country\, Larson is excited to return to the Green Room with a stellar band that includes Grammy-Award-winning bassist and frequent Larson collaborator Clark Sommers as well as local stalwarts pianist Alvie Givhan and drummer James Sexton. \nAsked about the musical selections for the February 15th outing\, Larson says he will pull from some of his favorite Brecker recordings with special consideration to Brecker’s album “The Nearness of You: The Ballad Book”\, timely for the Valentine’s Day holiday.
