Join us for an incredible evening of jazz featuring one of the most electrifying emerging musicians in the modern scene!Adam Larson (b. 1990) is an American saxophonist, composer, educator and author currently residing in the Kansas City-area. He holds BM and MM degrees in jazz performance from The Manhattan School of Music and was a part of the vibrant NYC jazz scene for eleven years before relocating in 2019. While a resident of the KC-Metro, Larson has held positions at UMKC Conservatory, University of Kansas and The Kansas City Art Institute. Larson currently teaches Entrepreneurship at KCAI. Larson continues to perform in NYC with some of the greatest musicians in the genre.
Joining Larson is Chicago-based bassist Clark Sommers and Kansas City-based drummer John Kizilarmut.
Praise for the Adam Larson Trio:
“…an extremely satisfying saxophone-bass-drums trio (“With Love, From Chicago”)…one of those albums that should stay in one’s rotation”- Anthony Dean-Harris, Downbeat Magazine, 4.5 Stars
“It’s not surprising that With Love, From Chicago is Larson’s best album to date. And it won’t be surprising if his next one—the second of his planned triplet of tributes to cities influential to his development, utilizing rhythm sections from those locales—is better still.”- Britt Robson, JazzTimes
This concert, the culminating event of the inaugural ETSU Jazz Festival, is made possible through a grant from the Mary B. Martin School of the Arts with support from the ETSU Department of Music.
