Description
Enjoy a musical evening as bassist and band leader Dave Sharp presents a showcase of local live jazz
Musicians for this evening concert will be featured at the A2 Jazz Fest, a new outdoor festival premiering in September at West Park.
Performers include:
- the Ingrid Racine Quartet. Trumpeter and composer Ingrid Racine embraces everything from early jazz to bop, fusion to folk and hip hop. Her strong bebop sensibility shines, even as she explores music across decades and geographical boundaries. After graduating from the esteemed jazz program at Community High School in 2000, Ingrid pursued a BFA in Jazz Studies at the University of Michigan, where she studied with the great saxophonist Donald Walden and Detroit Symphony Orchestra trumpeter Bill Lucas. By graduation, Ingrid was playing professionally throughout Michigan with an eclectic array of ensembles including the 1920’s jazz ensemble Phil Ogilvie’s Rhythm Kings, Mady Kouyate’s Heat of Africa, and the Detroit-based all female jazz group Straight Ahead, in addition to steady sideman work in local small jazz groups.
- Dave Sharp's student jazz band from the Ann Arbor Music Center, BLUEPRINTS, featuring Daniel Kennedy on piano, Nick Schnorberger on Guitar, Stanton Greenstone on bass and Henry Case on drums.
