The Steve Lacy Festival was named one of the "Concerts of the Year" by the New York City Jazz Record.




I was honored to read that our Steve Lacy Festival concert at the National Jazz Museum in Harlem was named one the "Concerts of Year" by the New York City Jazz Record. It was a very special evening featuring Dave Liebman, Andrew Raffo Dewar, Mark Helias and Andrew Cryille, and many fellow straight hornists who came by share their music: Kayla Milmine, Heath Watts, Nicole Johänntgen and Christof Noche. 

And a special thanks to the National Jazz Museum in Harlem.


Congrats to everyone on a job well-done!
