In this special performance, local favorites Mason Razavi and Terrence Brewer pay homage to the great pianist Thelonious Monk, known for his influential style of dissonant voicings and off-beat rhythm. They are joined by first-call musicians Gary Brown and Sylvia Cuenca.

Terrence Brewer & Mason Razavi: The Magic Of Monk

Hammer Theatre Center

The late jazz artists, vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson and drummer Eddie Marshall, were titans of jazz internationally, and they were the heart and soul of their native Bay Area jazz scene. They taught and performed together regularly at SJW where they influenced countless SJW students, as well as delighting their Stanford Jazz Festival audiences.

Drummer Dr. Jaz Sawyer, a former camper, and Oakland native and rising star vibraphonist Sasha Berliner are musicians who were deeply influenced by these masters. This show both honors the affinity and creativity of Bobby and Eddie, and showcases the immense talents of these two young artists, each of whom now have a huge impact of their own.
