About the Program
Celebrate the brilliance of Carl Fontana, one of the most influential trombonists in jazz history. Known for his silky-smooth technique, lightning-fast articulation, and cool West Coast style, Fontana brought a new level of virtuosity and lyricism to the instrument. From his early work with Woody Herman and Stan Kenton to his standout solo performances, Fontana left an indelible mark on modern jazz. The Ziad Jazz Quartet will pay tribute with a program featuring swinging standards and bebop classics that showcase the spirit and sound of this jazz great.
