Al Foster / George Mraz Quartet with Al Foster (drums) George Mraz (bass) Mark Turner (tenor sax) Bill Charlap (piano, 8/7-9) Renee Rosnes (piano, 8/10-11)

Over ten years after the passing of pantheonic tenor saxophonist and composer Joe Henderson, former associates—drummer Al Foster and bassist George Mraz—convene in an all-star group celebrating Henderson’s enduring legacy as a composer as well as distinctive and influential improviser. That legacy includes now standard jazz compositions such as “Black Narcissus,” “Caribbean Fire Dance,” “Inner Urge,” “In’n Out,” “Isotope,” “The Kicker,” “Our Thing,” “Recorda Me,” “Serenity,” “A Shade of Jade” and many more.
