GREAT LIVE MUSIC AT the Piano store

Trumpet master, composer, and inventive arranger David Weiss brings his outstanding New York sextet to the West coast to promote his newly released recording, Auteur. The recording spotlights original music, never-before-recorded compositions from Freddie Hubbard and Slide Hampton.  Praised by The New York Times and the Village Voice for his bold inventions over the years, Weiss’ music evokes emotional complexity — abundance and loss, the collateral beauty of pain — and transmits a deeply personal sound informed by his strong connection to hard bop, swing, and free improvisation traditions. David Weiss (trumpet), Myron Walden (alto sax), Michael Zilber (tenor sax), David Bryant- (piano), Essiet Essiet (bass), and E.J. Strickland (drums).
