Trumpetist

Trumpet greats Jon Faddis and Randy Brecker share the stage with the next generation of trumpet superstars – Benny Benack and Bria Skonberg – along with the Ted Rosenthal Trio, performing music of trumpet legends Dizzy Gillespie, Miles Davis, Louis Armstrong, and others. In addition to amazing trumpet virtuosity and improvisational creativity, the concert will feature the vocals of Benack and Skonberg who have toured together with Jazz at Lincoln Center, and follows up on last September’s sold-out Linde Center performance of Rosenthal's Bernstein & Bop: A Saxophone Colossus.

TLI Presents: Trumpet Summit featuring Jon Faddis, Randy Brecker, Benny Benack III, Bria Skonberg, and the Ted Rosenthal Trio

Tanglewood Music Center

Trumpeter Randy Brecker, saxophonist Tod Dickow, and the Bay Area-based ensemble honor the work of the late saxophonist Michael Brecker in an acoustic setting.

A blast from the 1970s heyday of fusion, Live at the Baked Potato! Charged Particles with Tod Dickow Play the Music of Michael Brecker fully earned its exclamation point, catapulting the Bay Area band onto international stages. Built on the power trio led by drummer Jon Krosnick, a professor at Stanford and the director of the university’s Political Psychology Research Group, Charged Particles is equally formidable playing acoustic or electric, with veteran pianist/keyboardist Murray Low and supremely versatile bassist Aaron Germain.
