The Clazzical Project Outside the Bachs

July 28, 2017 @ 8:00 pm - 10:00 pm

$15 – $60

Classical music in jazz arrangements? Yes! Don Stapleson (flute), Pete Fields (guitar), Fred Lieder (cello) and guest pianist Brian Ganz perform Debussy’s Reverie, Mozart’s Minuet in F, Bach’s Minuet in G, C.P.E. Bach’s Solfeggietto and other works. First Ganz plays the original classical piece, then Stapleson follows with brief commentary on jazz treatments, and then Clazzical Project offers their jazz interpretation. Cross-over? Mind-bending? “Ingenious and beautiful?”* Yes, yes, yes!

* “ingenious & beautiful juxtaposition of jazz treatments against iconic classical melodies” says Jeffrey Silberschlag, Music Director of Chesapeake Orchestra & Italy’s Alba Music Festival.
