George Garzone/Peter Erskine/Alan Pasqua/Darek Oles

Wednesday, May 18, 2022
7:30 PM

The series concludes on Wednesday, May 18, with the powerhouse collective band of George Garzone/Peter Erskine/Alan Pasqua/Darek Oles (tenor sax/drums/piano/bass). Athenaeum Jazz favorites Erskine, Pasqua and Oles, making up one of the most accomplished trios in jazz, joined in 2019 with legendary Boston-based saxophonist and jazz educator Garzone to record the extraordinary three-CD project, 3 Nights in L.A. DownBeat wrote, “Garzone is in rare form, radiating minor-key modal lyricism, emotionally charged balladry, angular up-tempo blues and straightahead bebop teeming with tenor toughness. Erskine is a consistently refreshing catalyst for this most fortunate meeting of monsters; Oles is pitch-perfect and rock-steady throughout; and Pasqua’s less-is-more approach to the keys provides contemporary harmonic and melodic context. This substantial offering of four jazz masters communicating in a highly evolved common language—and playing at the absolute top of their game—is one for the books.”
