Jazz St. Louis will offer "Jazz Perspectives" from Haynes, Stafford, and the Heath Brothers

Jazz St. Louis will continue its series of informal conversations with visiting musicians again during the organization's 2007-08 season. Last year, JSL hosted talks with pianist Ahmad Jamal, saxophonist/ educator Ronald Carter and author/journalist Dan Morgenstern.

This year, the "Jazz Perspectives" series will kick off at 2 p.m. on Sunday, September 23 with a reception and conversation with drummer Roy Haynes. Trumpeter Terell Stafford (6 p.m., Tuesday, February 19) and the Heath Brothers (6 p.m., Tuesday, March 25) will also take part in the series. All three events will be held on the 4th floor at the Centene Center for the Arts, 3547 Olive Street, and tickets for each are $10 per person, available through the Jazz St. Louis Web site.
