For several years, all-star veterans of the late, pantheonic tenor saxophonist and composer Joe Henderson's bands have convened at Birdland to celebrate his enduring legacy as a composer and influential improviser.
That legacy includes now standard jazz compositions such as "Black Narcissus," "Caribbean Fire Dance," "Inner Urge," "In'n Out," "Isotope," "The Kicker," "Our Thing," "Recorda Me," "Serenity," "A Shade of Jade" and many more.
Back this year by popular demand, "The Phantom Band" (a tribute to Henderson’s nickname, “The Phantom”), is convened and led by pianist Renee Rosnes.
The Phantom Band featuring: Renee Rosnes (piano)
Randy Brecker (trumpet) Al Foster (drums)
Jimmy Greene (saxophones) George Mraz (bass)
PERFORMANCE SCHEDULE:
TUESDAY thru SATURDAY @ 8:30 & 11 PM
