Thanks all for your support at the Columbus Museum of Art the last 3 Sunday afternoons! We had a great time playing for you, and look forward to Chamber Jazz starting on December 12. The complete season is now listed on the Chamber Jazz Series page of this website.

I hope to see you at Eddie Merlot's, Hyde Park, Due Amici, the Worthington Inn, Becky Ogden's "Bungalow Jazz", or elsewhere this summer and fall! More details on the calendar page.

“There is a vitality, a life force, a quickening that is translated through you into action, and there is only one of you in all time, this expression is unique, and if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium; and be lost. The world will not have it. It is not your business to determine how good it is, not how it compares with other expression. It is your business to keep it yours clearly and directly, to keep the channel open. You do not even have to believe in yourself or your work. You have to keep open and aware directly to the urges that motivate you. Keep the channel open. No artist is pleased. There is no satisfaction whatever at any time. There is only a queer, divine dissatisfaction, a blessed unrest that keeps us marching and makes us more alive than the others.” (the late dancer and choreographer Martha Graham)
