Where Jazz Meets Classical Concert

The Concord Conservatory of Music will present Where Jazz Meets Classical Concert on Friday, May 20th at 7:30 pm when we welcome guest musicians saxophonist Kenneth Radnofsky and pianist Yoshiko Hiramatsu Kline to perform with CCM faculty members Tsuyoshi Honjo on saxophone and Peter Evans on live electronics and bass clarinet.

Jazz and classical music might seem to live on opposite sides of the musical world. Surprisingly, at times, these genres intersect and share with one another. Get ready for an innovative, one-of-a-kind jazz experience. You’ll hear fresh improvisational music and discover jazz interpretations that borrowed and were inspired by contemporary classical music. In addition to jazz music, you’ll learn the background stories of the music and its composers—about their philosophies and performance practices.

This concert is sponsored by the Mass Cultural Council and the Concord Cultural Council.Tickets can be purchased online in advance at concordconservatory.org or at the door: $25 for adults and free for students 18 and under. Visit ConcordConservatory.org, email info@concordconservatory.org, or call (978) 369-0010 to learn more about CCM. Concord Conservatory of Music is the area’s non-profit community music school located at 1317 Main Street in the West Concord Union Church.
