Patrick Wolff Quintet

One of jazz's finest saxophone virtuosos, Patrick Wolff, join forces with an all-star band in an evening of classic bebop. Patrick Wolff is a mainstay of the San Francisco jazz scene, known for his work with the Marcus Shelby Jazz Orchestra and Diana Gameros, and praised for his original music and explorations of overlooked jazz repertoire. Wolff, along with a masterfully vibrant quartet of musicians, light up the night with dexterous and exhilarating renderings of the classic bebop. Join us to experience the time-honored compositions of the great Charles Mingus, Al Cohn, Freddie Redd, and Duke Ellington brought to life with magnetic virtuosity.

"The primary reason that Wolff's repertory concept works so well is that he's found a stellar cast of creative allies. The music feels lived in, like it's part of an ongoing conversation between widely read raconteurs... each tune is rife with idiosyncratic details that make it a welcome revelation."- Andrew Gilbert, San Jose Mercury News
