Jazz this week: Regina Carter, James Matthews Trio, Sessions Big Band and more
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.
