Arts Wayland Presents: Nica's Dream Quartet at The First Parish In Wayland

The Arts Wayland Jazz Series will conclude this season at 4 pm on Sunday, May 7th at the First Parish in Wayland with Nica’s Dream Quartet. The vibrant Puerto Rican alto saxophonist Edmar Colon carries his luminescent lead lines above the firm footing of double-bassist Bruce Gertz, and the ever-subtle drummer Austin McMahan, with Neil Olmstead on keys. The deep swinging grooves of Horace Silver, Monk and Miles will contrast with sultry Brazilian sounds of Jobim/Gilberto. There’ll be no shortage of cool jazz standards in their repertoire. Thank you to the Lauren Dunne Astley Memorial Foundation and The First Parish in Wayland for their generous co-sponsorship of this event...
