Few working musicians have had careers that span the history of post-war jazz as comprehensively as saxophonist, composer and songwriter Benny Golson.
This remarkable man has been an important figure in jazz for over six decades: writer of jazz standards, author of film music and soloist of great finesse. Having played with jazz legends including Dizzy Gillespie and Benny Goodman, he continues to astonish audiences with performances that are praised for their “vibrant” improvisation.
The SNJO is privileged to welcome Benny as their special guest. Together, they will explore his jazz legacy and celebrate his music that defies the march of time....
