Jason Hainsworth Quintet
April 17 @ 7:00 pm
The recorded collaboration of jazz legends Joe Henderson and Bobby Hutcherson is celebrated in April, Henderson’s birthday month, by saxophonist Jason Hainsworth’s quintet featuring vibraphonist Jalen Baker.
A former student of late New Orleans legend Ellis Marsalis, Houston-born saxophonist and composer Jason Hainsworth emerged from the city’s vaunted High School of the Performing and Visual Arts — the same training ground that produced the likes of Beyoncé, Jason Moran, Robert Glasper, Eric Harland, and Kendrick Scott — and is an in-demand bandleader, sideman, and composer/arranger, and educator whose resume includes work with Renee Rosnes and Johnathan Blake.
