Group Sax to Ring in New Year at First Friday Jazz

By December 23, 2019News

Group Sax will ring in the New Year at the January 3 First Friday Jazz concert. Group Sax is four of eastern Nebraska’s most accomplished saxophone players. The group includes Ed Love, Mark Benson, Paul Haar and Scott Vicroy who serve as the nucleus of the Nebraska Jazz Orchestra sax section. Lifted out of the orchestra, their focus is contemporary jazz literature, performing original arrangements of standard and not so standard jazz tunes. This unique saxophone ensemble is inspired by the music of Bobby Watson’s 29th Street Sax Quartet, the British Sax Group, Itchy Fingers and the World Sax Quartet.

The concert will be held between 11:30 am and 1:00 pm in the First Lutheran Activity Center. There is no admission fee, but donations are encouraged to help defray concert costs.  Lunch will be available for purchase or guests may bring their own. Guests are also encouraged to bring non-perishable food for the church food pantry.
