Yesterday, we saw one of Regina Carter's glamour shots.
Today, we can see her in action. I'm pressed for time today, so here's the minimalist guide to the week's highlights in St. Louis jazz:
Tonight through Saturday, Regina Carter performs two sets nightly at
Jazz at the Bistro. Also tonight, the
Whitaker Music Festival at the Missouri Botanical Gardens kicks off its free outdoor concert series with the James Matthews Trio.
On Thursday, the Sessions Big Band performs two shows at
Finale. On Friday, guitarist Rick Haydon leads a quartet for another outdoor jazz concert, this one at the Sugar Hill Winery; the
Bass Player's Ball featuring Michael Henderson is at the Ambassador; and the Carolbeth True Trio performs at
Crossings.
On Saturday, piano and vocal phenom Peter Cincotti will perform at the
Pageant, while down the street at
Brandt's, the fine saxophonist John Norment will lead his trio.
If you like, you can see a more comprehensive list of jazz events for the week on the new
St. Louis Jazz Notes calendar. And remember, to get your event included in this space and also listed in our new calendar, you can email your information to me at stljazznotes at yahoo dot com.
