About this Event

A DAVE HOLLAND QUINTET TRIBUTE CONCERT | TUESDAY AUGUST 11

Experience an evening celebrating the groundbreaking music of former bassist for Miles Davis, composer, and bandleader Dave Holland through selections from three of his landmark ECM recordings: Points of View, Prime Directive, and Not for Nothin’. These albums helped redefine the modern jazz quintet, blending intricate compositions with fearless improvisation, deep grooves, and remarkable collective interplay.

Led by up-and-coming Bay Area drummer Luca Parenti, he is joined by 4 other award winning young Bay Area musicians: Yoav Koenig on bass, Mark Clifford on vibraphone, Javier Gutierrez on saxophone, and Vito Marcacci on trombone.

Inspired by the legendary quintet featuring Chris Potter, Robin Eubanks, Steve Nelson, and Billy Kilson, these musicians will explore the rhythmic complexity, lyrical beauty, and adventurous spirit that have made Holland’s music a cornerstone of contemporary jazz.

THE CONCERT STARTS AT 6:30 PM.
