JON HENDRICKS IN CONCERT

This concert by Jon Hendricks at the Estival Jazz Lugano (1986) opens with Bruno Martino’s splendid ‘In Summer’. Accompanied by the Hendricks and Company, which he formed in 1980 with Cyrus Chestnut on piano, Clifford Barbaro on drums and Marcus McLaurine on double bass, Jon Hendricks played classics such as ‘Bye Bye Blackbird’ by Miles Davis and John Coltrane or ‘That’s What’ by Nat King Cole. Virtuosity, class. A flood of emotions.
