Northampton Jazz Workshop features saxophonist Rob Scheps Tuesday, June 26th, 7:30 to 8:30PM followed by an open jazz jam session until 10:30 PM at the The City Sports Grille at Spare Time Northampton, 525 Pleasant St., Northampton.

Hi Al,
This week we are pleased to welcome back for the second time a wonderful and eclectic saxophonist who makes his home in both NYC and Portland, OR. Rob Scheps has performed/recorded with everyone from Henry Threadgill and Julius Hemphill to Gil Evans, Jaki Byard and Dianne Reaves and even PDQ Bach. It should be a lot of fun and pretty amazing to boot I'm sure.   http://www.robscheps.8m.net. Joining Rob, George and I will be his good friend and frequent collaborator, also from NY, drummer Jesse Simpson.

A little bit about our guest drummer who is also a pianist. Jesse hails from Graton, CA and now based in Brooklyn. After growing up performing around the San Francisco Bay Area, studying with legendary drummer Donald Bailey, he moved to New York in 2007 to attend the Manhattan School of Music, graduating in 2010. Since that time, Jesse has performed alongside Louie Bellson, backed comedians Fred Armisen and Janeane Garafalo and played with Marc Copland, Kevin Hays, Joe Lovano, John Abercrombie, Chris Cheek and many more. He regularly performs in New York as well as on tour with many different groups in Europe.- Paul Arslanian



Also, I'd like to remind you about the Northampton Jazz Festival coming on October 19-21 and give you a link to purchase tickets early, if you haven't already,  for the Saturday show at the Academy of Music featuring the Paquito D'Rivera Quintet. Quite a few tickets have been reserved already so now is the time to get the best seats.

Hi All, It's been over a year since we last featured the great jazz bassoonist Michael Rabinowitz as our guest soloist. You will not only dig his unique sound but his approach to improvisation as well;  it's fresh, fluid, explosive and full of surprises and, always swinging. Here is an excerpt from his bio: Whether blowing bebop over a Mingus tune or freely improvising with Anthony Braxton, Michael Rabinowitz's contributions have changed the conception of what the bassoon can do.  He has recorded with Ira Sullivan, Red Rodney, Wynton Marsalis, John Hicks, Dave Douglas, Chris Potter and Joe Lovano. His festival appearances include Chicago, Montreal, Berlin, Tri-c...
