In other news from Jazz St. Louis, the organization has also announced a pair of public "conversations" with artists who will be performing at Jazz at the Bistro. Saxophonist and jazz educator Ron Carter (aka Ronald Carter, the former East St. Louis band director now at Northern Illinois University, and not Miles Davis' former bass player) will be the guest of honor on Tuesday, February 27, and pianist Ahmad Jamal (pictured) will be the center of attention on Tuesday, April 24.Both receptions will be held at 6 p.m.on the fourth floor of the Centene Center for the Arts, 3547 Olive Street, Suite 410. These events, which are co-sponsored by Washington University, are free and open to the public, but because space is limited and refreshments will be served, to attend you must RSVP by calling Sally Dunne at 314-289-4036 or emailing her at sally(at)jazzstl(dot)org.
