A Jazz Piano Christmas 2019: Sounds

Exciting pianist Joshua White is from Southern California; he is becoming known for combining the passion of a young man’s discovery of jazz with an intellectual side, reading books as often as sheet music. Rebeca Mauleón anchors a thriving Afro-Caribbean music and jazz scene in the Bay Area and is also the Director of Education at SFJAZZ in San Francisco. George Cables can be heard on so many classics over the decades that he easily qualifies as the Elder Statesman of the West Coast jazz scene. And because variety is the spice of life, we added Mark G. Meadows to the line-up to represent the East Coast; he’s a jazz talent who also teaches and acts.
