Join us for the Blue Bamboo Jazz Festival 2023! Four concert events September 14th-17th. This evening will feature John Redfield in the first set, and Septessence in the second set.
Originally from Chicago, John Redfield is a virtuosic pianist who has been dazzling Central Florida audiences for the last few years. In John's playing the influence of piano masters like Oscar Peterson, Wynton Kelly, and Art Tatum can be heard. He plays with both rapid fire intensity, and melodic sensitivity. His solo piano stylings will leave you amazed.
Septessence is a new jazz septet led by bassist Nashir Janmohamed. Based in Orlando, the group was formed from members of UCF jazz programs. They will present a mix of original compositions by members of the band, as well as their arrangements of jazz standards. Featuring Joshua Mercado on trumpet, Fortunato Occhino on tenor sax, Quint Johnson on alto sax, Noah Charles III on guitar, Richard Drexler on piano, Nashir Janmohamed on bass, and James Fortune on drums....
