NJJS in partnership with the Metuchen Arts Council-Jazz present Frank Basile: Six Important Baritone Players. 

Basile, a baritone saxophonist, is per The New Yorker a "prized sideman" who has toured the world and recorded with many of Jazz's finest musicians and ensembles including The Vanguard Jazz Orchestra and The Dizzy Gillespie All Star Band.

Adjunct faculty member at The New School, Basile will share his perspective on six baritone saxophonists who have contributed to the progress of the Bari Sax and have exerted their influences on Frank's own sound, including Harry Carney, Leo Parker Cecile Payne, Pepper Adams, Ronnie Cuber and Gary Smulyan. We hope you'll join us for this event!
