Wayne Horvitz: Zony Mash and Electric Circus

Walt Disney Concert Hall

Marin-raised, L.A.-based alto saxophonist and composer Nicole McCabe plays original compositions from her latest album, Mosaic, with her superlative quartet.

McCabe is part of the creative ferment that has energized the Los Angeles jazz scene in recent years, and in many ways her music has been shaped by the people and environment that define the West Coast.

SFJAZZ Center

A gifted and award-winning vibraphonist, composer, and producer, San Francisco native Sasha Berliner brings music from her upcoming album Fantome to this homecoming performance. Berliner began on drums at eight and attended the Oakland School for the Arts, studying with Howard Wiley and Dave Ellis before becoming a two-year member of the SFJAZZ High School All-Stars Orchestra, performing with the Monterey Jazz Festival Next Generation Jazz Orchestra and Stanford Jazz Workshops.

In this unique concert, the West Coast Jazz Hour Big Band—led by Josh Nelson and Kevin van den Elzen—gives audiences the rare opportunity to experience two of the most iconic jazz versions of Broadway musicals ever created.
