The evening will feature the captivating sound of saxman Houston Person in an all-star quartet with Eric Gunnison on piano, Chuck Berghofer on bass and namesake Lewis Nash on drums; plus sensational Italian-born jazz vocalist Roberta Gambarini. The evening will include additional performances by students of The Nash's unique education programs, including Phoenix Jazz Girls Rising, and The Nash Legacy Ensembles, exemplifying the future generation of jazz musicians.
