Description:
The moon rises in New York and the city becomes drenched in sound. The instruments speak in masterful tones and the audience listens, captivated. Includes Bluesnova, Cubano Chant and Dr. Jackie. Instrumentation includes saxophone, trumpet, trombone, bass, piano & percussion.
The moon rises over New York, and while most of the city settles in for the night, the clubs are just coming alive. This is Manhattan, where city lights glow through the blue of midnight, illuminating streets otherwise washed in shadow. With the rush and bustle of the day a mere echo on the damp pavement, the people of late-night Manhattan walk arm-in-arm through smoky doorways into dimly-lit rooms. The music leads the way…
 
On the stage, under the light of one solitary bulb, sounds flow from the instruments like honey from a hive. The piano sings sweetly of life’s joys and pains; the saxophone answers with its own tales, intricately told. Horns and guitars commiserate, adding their own parts to the unfolding story. The drums add their voices, embellishing and encouraging. The storytelling will continue for many hours into the night. This is Manhattan Jazz – the smooth, yet complex, sund of the city that never sleeps.
