Sessions from the Martin Hanson

"Chance" founders Ed Willett (cello/guitar/vocals) and Cheryl Leah (vocals) are excited to announce the opening of the 3rd Season of their concert series, "Sessions from the Martin Hanson". The season opener will feature the world renowned jazz and blues violinist Randy Sabien.

"Listen closely to Sabien's great cascades of notes, and you will hear the grand arpeggios, broken octaves, double-stops, trills, and tremolos that have marked classical violin playing since the solo work of J.S. Bach. But that's just the starting point for Sabien's art which bristles with the spirit of bona fide jazz improvisation. Rather than simply embellishing a tune, he reconcieves it, building and developing intriguing new musical motifs along the way".
Howard Reich, CHICAGO TRIBUNE

On January 14th Sabien, Willett and Leah will pull from their vast repertoire of original eclectic material. As is always the case when these three musical explorers get together, they'll be tugging on the threads of the conventional, unraveling the expected and reassembling their music into an offering of their own design.

Please join them for a Sunday afternoon of astounding string playing, passionate singing, and the warmth of three good friends enjoying each others musical company.
