Merrimans' Playhouse Jazz Performance Series presents The Dave Scott Quartet
SORRY, this concert is CANCELLED due to flight cancellations with winter storm; musicians were not able to travel. Please call 574-329-3430 if you already bought a ticket. We can either transfer your ticket towards another concert or refund your money. They plan to reschedule in the fall.
The Dave Scott Quartet features some of New York's finest improvisers. Their
experiences range from traditional forms of jazz to the extremely experimental and
atonal. Dave Scott's compositions reflect both specific forms with dense harmonic
structures and open frameworks for free improvisation. The focus of the group is to
utilize the engaging and often complex compositions as vehicles for improvisation.
The pieces develop interactively and organically allowing each musician full
individual expression. In June of 2004 Dave released a CD of his quintet, "Song
For Amy" on the SteepleChase label. In February of 2007 the quintet released a
new project "Naivete'"also on SteepleChase. Both discs have received critical
acclaim, "Song for Amy" in Jazz Times (March 2005) and "Naivete'" in the Jazz
Review (September 2007). A third disc "Nonchalant" was released in April of
2009 and received honorable mention as "CD of the year" in All About Jazz. Dave
and his group perform regularly in the New York City area including the 55 Bar
and has been featured on the Los Angeles County Museum of Art concert series
and at Jazz City '99 on the campus of the University of Southern California. Other
venues include Barbes in Brooklyn, the Deer Head Inn, the Blue Room in Kansas
City, MO, Southern Illinios University and the Missouri State University concert
series.
