Saxquest is thrilled to host a FREE performance at the shop this Saturday with St. Louis living legend, clarinetist, Scott Alberici (Saturday Aug. 22 from 2-4PM).
Known for his superbly rich and warm tone, lyrical phrasing and command of the American songbook, Mr. Alberici has developed a personal style that is instantly recognizable. His rare ability to capture the moment with subtlety of expression mixed with brilliant and melodic improvisations will keep the listener on the edge of their seat from the drop of the downbeat to the end of the performance.
We’re also thrilled to welcome for the first time on the Saxquest stage, Kara Baldus-Vandiver, who will be joining Mr. Alberici on the piano. Mrs Baldus-Vandiver is a seasoned jazz musician and a formidable voice on piano. Listening to her play, one can, at times, pick up hints of the great Bill Evans.
This jazz duet setting is the perfect venue for these two wonderful musicians to stretch out and wrap their voices around each other in musical interplay. This will not be one to miss!!! See you on SATURDAY!!!
