This new concert series is brought to you by The Greater Madison Jazz Consortium. InDIGenous features local musicians performing original compositions. The series closer is The Paul Dietrich Quintet. Paul describes his Quintet as:
“In early 2012 Paul formed the Paul Dietrich Quintet as a vehicle for his small group writing. The immensely talented lineup features Dustin Laurenzi on tenor saxophone, Paul Bedal on piano, Tim Ipsen on bass and Andrew Green on drums. Paul’s style of modern jazz focuses on long-form writing akin to many of his major influences such as Robert Glasper, Maria Schneider, Darcy James Argue, Terence Blanchard, and Brad Mehldau. In 2014, the quintet released their debut album, We Always Get There, on Chicago’s Blujazz label. JazzinMadison.org called the album “uniquely introspective” and praised Paul’s playing, saying that “his solos follow big and captivating arcs.”
In 2013 Paul moved to Madison, Wisconsin where he is active as a trumpet player, composer and educator.”
This concert is for all ages and is free to the public.
