ONE NIGHT ONLY!!
THE FIRST OF TWO SHOWS: 6pm-8:30pm
Come see Bobby Watson, world-class musician and recent inductee into the Jazz Hall of Fame, in the first of many BJC Signature Series events!
A saxophonist, composer, arranger and educator, Bobby Watson grew up in Kansas City, Kansas. For essentially four decades now Watson has consistently contributed intelligent, sensitive and well-thought out music to the modern-day jazz lexicon. All told, Watson, the now-seasoned veteran, has released more than 30 recordings as a leader and appeared on close to 150 other recordings, either performing as co-leader or in support of other like-minded musicians. Not simply a performer, the saxophonist has recorded more than 100 original compositions including the music for the soundtrack of 'A Bronx Tale,' which marked Robert DeNiro’s 1993 directorial debut.
