Jazz,
Wayne Shorter Origins – The Early Years
Come along with The Four Strangers Quartet as they explore the early years of saxophone icon Wayne Shorter. Prior to the rise of his iconic group, Weather Report, Shorter’s formative associations with Miles Davis, Herbie Hancock, Art Blakey and many other greats would shape the voice that became legend.
Special thanks to John Hill and his YouTube channel “Heaven Now.”
Featuring Michael Sharfe (bass), Tim McCord (saxophone), John Zappa (trumpet) and Phil Tipton (drums) with special guest Chris Caporale (piano)
Sizzling jazz warms wintery Monday nights as Jazz at the Memo returns in 2025 to the beautiful and acoustically superb Anderson Theater at Memorial Hall.

Celebrated local acts making their JATM debut in 2025 include The Faux Frenchmen and their tribute to Django Reinhardt, the explosive sounds of the Nasty Nati Brass Band and a program of vocal duets featuring songstress April Aloisio.
