Jean Marie Collatin-Faye (drums)
Neil Podgurski has been deeply embedded in the NY/Philly jazz scene for 20 years. After enrolling in New York’s New School in 1994, and living in Brooklyn until 2001, he made a fruitfull return to his native Philadelphia. Over the years, he’s performed at many of the region’s finest venues, most recently The Kennedy Center, The Philadelphia Art Museum, The Jazz Gallery, The Iridium and Bohemian Caverns. He's established himself as a respected composer and leader and is one of the most experienced, versatile, and sought after pianists in the NYC and Philadelphia jazz world today.
On master percussionist Jean Marie Collatin-Faye , Adam Reifsteck writes:
"I’ve always liked the duo format, because it lives or dies on the conversational aspect at the heart of the best jazz. I’ve found this to be true regardless of instrumentation.
Jean-Marie’s mastery of the arsenal of percussion instruments at his disposal functioned very musically as both the foundation and embellishment for...improvisational flights of fancy. Jean-Marie’s playing really engaged the audience of many passersby, despite his limited mobility (after all, his instruments were stationary).".
