Geller Jazz Series: Donald Harrison Quintet
The Geller Jazz series is thrilled to welcome New Orleans-born saxophonist Donald Harrison to campus. Harrison is a master of every era of jazz, soul, funk, as well as orchestral classical music. As Big Chief of Congo Square in Afro-New Orleans culture, he shares that unique New Orleans jazz with the world and adds to those traditions by creating influential styles such “nouveau swing” (a blend of jazz with R&B, hip-hop, rock, and soul) and a modern second-line.
