Evan Christopher's Clarinet Road at New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival

About

Clarinetist, Evan Christopher combines virtuosity, immaculate taste, and enthusiasm with a deep commitment to exploring the full range of possibilities in the New Orleans Jazz tradition. Anchored in the musical vocabulary created by early Creole clarinetists such as Sidney Bechet, Omer Simeon, and Barney Bigard, he has created a highly personal brand of "contemporary early-jazz" that strives to extend the legacy of this unique clarinet style.
