Gifted pianist/composer/arranger Rachel Z will join forces
with Berks County saxophonist Tim Price for this special show at the
Jazz Base. Price and Rachel Z teamed of for a special concert/clinic
during last March's Berks Jazz Fest at Boscov's East. Price and Rachel
Z have been creating cutting edge music for years. Rachel Z says: "Tim
plays with compelling energy and feeling that is evocative of one of
the future greats of jazz." Price and Rachel Z will be joined by
Bobbie Rae on drums and Scott Lee on bass. Rachel Z has come up with
a creative solution to the dilemma facing jazz musicians these days
-- the constant challenge of mastering one’s instrument and learning
to play through changes with the added problem of a shrinking market.
To connect with new listeners, Rachel has found a way to make the age-old
piano trio relevant and fresh to younger ears. And she’s done
so without sacrificing artistry or forsaking her own connection to the
jazz piano legacy of Bud Powell, Ahmad Jamal, Bill Evans, McCoy Tyner,
Herbie Hancock and Chick Corea, among many others. Her professional
career has put Rachel on stage or in studio with some of contemporary
jazz’s top names, such as Steps Ahead, Al DiMeola, Larry Coryell,
Special EFX, and Angela Bofill. She also is a member of Peter Gabriel's
band. Rachel doesn’t merely cover any of these songs. All are
fresh, creative interpretations.
