JACK DEJOHNETTE / JOE LOVANO / ESPERANZA SPALDING / LEO GENOVESE

All stars from the international jazz-top drummer Jack DeJohnette, saxophonist Joe Lovano, bassist Esperanza Spalding and pianist Leo Genovese. They come together in this unique, modern multi-generational project.

Jazz Master Jack DeJohnette is one of the most respected drummers on the planet. He is capable of playing in any style while maintaining a well-defined voice, keeping him in constant demand as a drummer, bandleader, and sideman for over five decades.

Hailed by the New York Times as “one of the greatest musicians in jazz history,” Grammy award winning saxophone giant Joe Lovano has distinguished himself as a prescient and path-finding force in the arena of creative music. Lovano’s 23 recordings on the famed Blue Note label is unparalleled and his accolades and acclaim as bandleader and soloist are endless.

The young bassist/vocalist/composer Esperanza Spalding was one of the biggest breakout stars of 2011- not just in jazz, but in all genres of music. Her receipt of the 2011 GRAMMY® for Best New Artist was unprecedented, the first time in history that a jazz musician has won the award, but Spalding continues to make the unprecedented the norm.

The all star frontline is rounded out by the amazing Argentinean pianist Leo Genovese a long-time collaborative partner of Spalding’s, who has traveled the globe on her Chamber Music Society and Radio Music Society tours.
