>>Jarek Smietana Trio featuring Hamiet Bluiett
For all you Jazzers out there this is your last chance to catch a concert at this year’s Summer Jazz Festival. Closing out this year’s festival is none other than the big fish himself Mr. Jarek Smietana and his Trio featuring Hamiet Bluiett. Krakow native Smietana is a stalwart of the Summer Jazz Festival but this concert will be slightly different as his group will feature Bluiett, an African American, on the big bad baritone saxophone. Hamiet Bluiett was born in Brooklyn, Illonois in 1940 is a saxophonist, clarinetist, and composer. His primary instrument is the baritone saxophone, and he is widely considered one of the best living players. He has played with many Jazz Funk and Soul musicians in his long career including Sam Rivers, Babatunde Olatunji, Abdullah Ibrahim, Stevie Wonder, and Marvin Gaye. He is also a founding member of the World Saxophone Quartet which is one of the most well regarded all saxophones groups in the world. Even if Jazz isn’t your bag, cool down with some warm vibes and deep tones.
