The great quartet that Mr. Bill Saxton has organized for the occasion features pianist Jordan Williams, bassist Tarik Shah, and drummer Darrell Green. One could also call this concert Bill’s Place Meets Sistas’ Place, as Bill Saxton is the proprietor of the Harlem speakeasy that bears his name. In addition to sharing a generational relationship, Mr. Saxton also worked with the great Pharoah Sanders, so, expect a fantastic evening of Jazz: A Music of the Spirit!
