Jazz in the Neighborhood: Glen Pearson

Description

The Emerald Tablet hosts an evening of jazz featuring pianist Glen Pearson and a host of special guests that will include a showcase of young talent.

Pearson has performed on stage, television, radio, and in recording studios as the principle keyboardist for Regina Belle and as pianist and orchestrator with many notable musicians. His recording credits are numerous and include an award winning jazz album by percussionist Babatundae Lea. He served for eleven years as the Musical/Band Director for the world-renowed Boy’s Choir of Harlem and is currently head of music studies at the College of Alameda.

This event is part of The Emerald Tablet’s monthly collaboration with Jazz in the Neighborhood. The Bay Area is home to many incredible jazz musicians who’ve devoted their lives to developing their craft and attaining the highest artistic levels. Jazz in the Neighborhood is an important step towards creating an environment where these accomplished professionals can nurture a great American art form in dignity and respect, while delighting audiences of all ages.The Emerald Tablet is proud to provide its resources, on a regular basis, to help this dream to become a reality. Please join us every second Friday and be part of a grassroots jazz revolution!
