An apprenticeship with Charlie Parker and Sarah Vaughan lead to decades as the rhythmic pulse on countless classic recordings, making brilliant bandleader and nurturer of young talent, drummer Roy Haynes undoubtedly one of the great masters of jazz. Our opening concert features this legendary and ever-stylish Grammy-winner in two settings: with his own current Fountain of Youth Band and with an all-star supergroup who debut together for the first time in Rose Theater, including saxophonist Kenny Garrett, pianist Danilo Perez, bassist Dave Holland, and trumpeter Wynton Marsalis.
This concert is available as part of our Pick 4 Series subscription package.
Thanks to the support of St. Regis Hotels & Resorts and The Coca-Cola Company, ticket holders will receive a complimentary, exclusive CD entitled Timeless is Modern, a compilation of 21 jazz standards chosen by Wynton Marsalis in honor of St Regis’ jazz legacy and the opening of the 21st St. Regis hotel this year. All songs on the CD are performed by the acclaimed Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra with Wynton Marsalis. Audience members are also invited to enjoy a complimentary glass of champagne at intermission, courtesy of Chandon and hosted by St. Regis.
