Anton Schwartz Sextet
Based in Seattle, Jazz saxophonist Anton Schwartz has earned a national name for his big tone and his smart and soulful compositions and improvisations. Over the past two decades Schwartz has performed at jazzs most prestigious clubs and festivals, from Jazz at Lincoln Center and the Blue Note in New York City to Yoshis in Oakland and Bostons Regattabar to Washington D.C.s Blues Alley and the Monterey Jazz Festival. He has been a featured soloist with the Boston Pops and artist-in-residence at Harvard University and the Brubeck Institute, as well as a longtime faculty member at the California Jazz Conservatory. Each of his five CDs as a leader has drawn sterling reviews and strong airplay; his most recent release Flash Mob earned a four star DownBeat review and a long run on the jazz radio Top 10 chart.
For this performance he enlarges his award-winning quintet to present a six-piece ensemble and a program of unreleased compositions and arrangements. The members of his ensemble are huge talents in their own right, based in Los Angeles, San Jose, San Francisco and the East Bay:
Joel Behrman (trumpet) John Gove (trombone) Josh Nelson (piano) Jeff Denson (bass) Lorca Hart (drums)
"Warm, generous tone, impeccably developed solos and infectious performance energy. San Francisco Chronicle.
