"Third Thursdays" in October with special guests Barry Altschul (drums), Scott Robinson (saxophone), Hill Greene (bass), and Dave Bryant (host/keys) on October 17, 2024, at 8 pm
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. - BostonChron -- (Cambridge, MA) "Third Thursdays" monthly jazz series host Dave Bryant (keyboardist) has announced this extra special gathering of three renowned improvisers for October. Scott Robinson, best known for his work on multiple saxophones who also performs on unusual or obscure instruments such as the ophicleide and the contrabass saxophone, has appeared on more than 275 recordings with musicians such as Roscoe Mitchell, Ron Carter, and David Bowie, and was named a 2001 jazz ambassador by the U.S. State Department. Hill Greene is an accomplished bassist who has performed with artists including Cecil Taylor, Don Pullen, Dave Douglas, and Jimmy Scott. Legendary drummer Barry Altschul performed with Paul Bley, then formed the group Circle with Chick Corea, Dave Holland, and Anthony Braxton, later performing with Braxton's quartet throughout the 1970's. More recently, he has co-led his own ensembles, such as the 3dom Factor and the OGJB Quartet.
Dave notes: "After a couple of years concentrating on great musicians from the Boston area, as well as my fellow Ornette Coleman sidemen, "Third Thursdays" is beginning to broaden our scope to include more musicians from out of town. It's a real pleasure to reunite with Scott and Hill, who were two favorite musicians from my Berklee days in the late '70s. And it's a thrill to get to collaborate with Barry, whose work I've long admired."
