Jazz at Scripps Research Fall Series

October 4, 16 & 28, 2021
7:30 PM

Athenaeum Jazz at the Scripps Research Auditorium returns to celebrate the series’ 25th anniversary! The Athenaeum presented the first three public concerts in the auditorium in the fall of 1996 with performances by Jimmy Smith, James Moody, and the TanaReid Quintet. So this fall we mark a milestone of a quarter century of concerts that have featured many of the most eminent artists in jazz. The series showcases the talents of an array of extraordinary artists: a special-edition quintet featuring Gilbert Castellanos on trumpet, Gerald Clayton on piano, John Clayton on bass, Roy McCurdy on drums, and Anthony Wilson on guitar; a rare West Coast date by critically acclaimed flutist and composer Jamie Baum; and the return of tenor saxophone giant Mark Turner. Seating is limited and early reservations are advised!
