All About the Trio
A Tribute to Cole Porter!

“Everybody loves Cole Porter.
But most jazz musicians really love Cole Porter…”
Nick Morrison (NPR: Jazz Notes newsletter)

Highlighting Porter's tremendous influence on the catalog of jazz standards, the Trio will perform some of the composer's most well-loved pieces, including "Love For Sale", "Everything I Love", "Begin the Beguine" and "I Love You," discussing why jazz players have chosen so many of them to use as vehicles for improvisation. Don’t miss another opportunity to be back in Kerrytown Concert House with one of Ann Arbor’s favorite jazz trios!

Monk’s Modern Music Revisited
Rick Roe (piano),
Rodney Whitaker (string bass) &
special guest, Dana Hall (drums)
Sunday | Mar. 19th @ 7:30 PM
A special collaboration of celebrated jazz musicians
and a revival of a seminal recording
made right here at KCH nearly 30 years ago!
Back in 1994, coming off of a semi-finalist ranking in the Thelonious Monk International Jazz Piano Competition at the Kennedy Center in Washington DC, pianist Rick Roe gathered a great trio of high level musicians at Kerrytown Concert House to record a tribute to the great jazz composer Thelonious Sphere Monk (joining Roe was string bassist Rodney Whitaker and drummer Gregory Hutchinson). The album, entitled Monk’s Modern Music, went on to become an important contribution to the catalog of recorded Monk tributes. KCH is honored to present a revival of this seminal project with Monk’s Modern Music Revisited in the very place it began nearly 30 years ago! Don’t miss this special collaboration of world-class jazz musicians - Rick Roe, Rodney Whitaker and special guest Dana Hall - honoring this "genius of modern music" in the intimate setting of our Jazz Listening Room!
This performance is generously supported by Series Underwriters,
Dallas & Sharon Dort.
