Todd Marcus Quintet featuring Virginia MacDonald
Thu, Apr 30
|Merrimans' Playhouse
One of the few artists to focus on the bass clarinet as a main instrument in jazz. His straight-ahead playing and compositions swing with intensity balanced with delicate introspection, strong melodic sensibility, and may draw from elements of his community work, and Egyptian American heritage.
