I’d like to invite you out to a great event as part of the Saxquest 2012 concert/clinic series this Saturday, October 20, from 3-5pm. We are thrilled to welcome back jazz saxophonist and clarinetist Victor Goines. Mr. Goines will be presenting a small ensemble jazz performance and clinic in an informal setting. The event is free and open to the public and hosted at the Saxquest shop.
Victor Goines has been a member of the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra and the Wynton Marsalis Septet since 1993 and he’s currently the director of jazz studies at the Bienen School of Music at Northwestern University. He has collaborated with a who’s who list of superstars in the jazz scene, and is also a gifted composer, having composed more than 70 original works, including Jazz at the Lincoln Center commissions.
We last hosted Mr. Goines in 2010, and it was a memorable event. Please come by to hear some great music, and have the opportunity to rub shoulders and talk to one of the great saxophonists and multi-reed instrumentalists today.
