Allan Harris: Jazz Poetry & Groove

Jazz at Lincoln Center

A brilliant drummer with a list of credits that reads like a Who’s Who of jazz luminaries — including long stints in the bands of Joe Henderson and Clark Terry — Sylvia Cuenca has local roots that are as deep as SJW’s. One of the early Jazz Camp attendees, Sylvia soon became an indispensable member of the faculty and staff, shaping the programs that still thrive and inspire young musicians today. A meeting with Joe Henderson at Jazz Camp set her on a trajectory of jazz drumming that has taken her around the globe. Composition is yet another of her strong suits, and this show will feature her favorite musicians playing her own tunes and their interpretations of other repertoire
