CCA's Midweek Music Series: Aggie Music Project Goes Piano-less

A jazz jam session! No cover charge. It’s outdoors, so dress accordingly, and bring a blanket or camp chairs and spread out in a socially-distanced way and enjoy the music.

USU Music faculty Jon Gudmudson (baritone saxophone), Max Matzen (trumpet), Braun Khan (bass), and Jason Nicholson (drums), celebrate the music of the Gerry Mulligan Quartet with Chet Baker this Wednesday under the tent.

One of the more influential small groups in jazz history was the so-called “pianoless” quartet of Gerry Mulligan, Chet Baker, Carson Smith, and Chico Hamilton. This seminal group took the musical world by storm in the early 1950s and defined a new sound and aesthetic dubbed West Coast jazz. Aggie Music Project will perform a number of the band’s hits, including “Bernie’s Tune,” “Lullaby of the Leaves,” “Line for Lyons” and many more. Bring a blanket or camp chair to the Engineering Quad, dress for the weather, and enjoy the cool sounds of West Coast jazz.
