Jazz is alive and well in Monterey with a special Sunday night concert by the David Weiss Sextet. This New York based group features David Weiss- Trumpet, Myron Walden- Alto Sax, Teodross Avery- Tenor Sax, Victor Gould- Piano, Essiet Essiet- Bass and E.J. Strickland- Drums.
The performance is hosted at Wave Street Studios, the peninsulas premiere live music venue. These intimate concerts are professionally recorded for television before you our live studio audience. Enjoy a cocktail, local beer or wine and a delectible bite before the show. Doors open at 5:30pm.
In a jazz climate that rewards neo-conservative tributes and far-flung exercises in deconstruction, David Weiss has distinguished himself another way: through finding flexibility and innovation in music that has its roots in the mainstream. The trumpeter, composer, and arranger has had the opportunity to learn from some of the music’s quintessential figures by touring and/or recording with the likes of Freddie Hubbard, Charles Tolliver, Billy Harper, Bobby Hutcherson, Slide Hampton, James Moody, Tom Harrell, Louis Hayes, Muhal Richard Abrams and Billy Hart among many others.
