SUMMARY:Beyond the Neighborhood: The Music of Fred Rogers
DESCRIPTION:Featuring Grammy-nominated pianist\, Kevin Bales \nChicago Vocalist\, Keri Johnsrud \nDrummer\, Marlon Patton \nBassist\, Billy Thornton \nGrammy-winning Saxophonist\, Mace Hibbard \nGuitarist\, Trey Wright \nAnd many special guests from our musical neighborhood \nFred McFeely Rogers – the cardigan-wearing\, sneaker-shod\, quintessentially gentle Presbyterian \nminister known as Mister Rogers on the award-winning children’s TV show that aired for nearly 35 \nyears – also wrote the songs he sang on his program. He wrote a lot of songs\, and he wrote them \nwell. As a kid\, you might not have noticed the craftsmanship of these songs but as an adult\, you \ncan’t miss it. These songs left their mark on three generations of children who made Mister Roger’s \nNeighborhood part of their after-school routine. \nThe songs\, which up until now were specifically tailored for his children’s show\, are now presented \nas reinvented gems that are wise and wistful\, simple but not simplistic\, and even\, in some cases\, a \nbit sultry. In this concert\, Mister Rogers’ songs not only relate to adults; they seem to have been \nwritten for adults in the first place. \nKevin Bales  \nBy some measures\, Kevin Bales was a latecomer to jazz\, already 17 when he encountered the \nsounds and structures and became captivated by the freedom and corresponding challenges of the \nmusic. But if late to the party\, he wasted no time in immersing himself in the celebration\, declaring \ntotal commitment to what would be his life’s work and backing his announcement by resigning his \njob and designated career in computer programming. \nKevin could commit to jazz with a reasonable degree of expectation. He was already an \naccomplished pianist\, with classical chops refined since the age of 10. So accomplished he was \ninvited to audition for the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra\, then under the direction of its most storied \nconductor Robert Shaw\, at age 16. Kevin’s initial career move was to the University of North Florida \nand a budding if little-known jazz program. \nThere he met and performed with\, and went on to record and tour with\, a number of monumental \nartists who had settled into that burgeoning North Florida jazz scene. Giants like Wynton Marsalis\, \nLouie Bellson\, Eddie Daniels\, James Moody\, Ben Tucker\, Ira Sullivan\, Sam Rivers\, and Nat \nAdderley. He counts among his mentors bassist Ben Tucker\, multi-instrumentalist Ira Sullivan\, guitar \nlegends Nathen Page and Jack Petersen\, and the fiercely individual saxophonist Bunky Green. His \nmeeting with Bunky Green led to five years of tours. His encounter with guitarist Nathen Page \nblossomed into 15 years of spot tours and four albums. And his work with trumpeter extraordinaire \nMarcus Printup has become a lifetime association that has included recordings on Blue Note/Capital \nrecords. Ten years touring and recording with vocal iconoclast Rene Marie culminated in the a \nGrammy Nominated album. \nFew artists have the patience for teaching – as are few teachers accomplished players. But Kevin \nhas amassed a reputation for his prowess in both professions. While still a senior at North Florida he \nwas drafted into a full teaching load\, and continued to be an integral part of the school’s jazz \nprogram for upwards of a decade. Today\, Kevin manages his own jazz program\, overseeing an \nambitious schedule of ambitious jazz students. \nKevin has amassed a long list of awards and a reputation as one of the finest jazz pianists \nperforming anywhere. In 1994\, less than a decade into jazz\, he won the American Pianist \nAssociation’s Jazz Piano Competition. In addition to nearly every important jazz venue in the South\, \nhe has performed in some of the most acclaimed clubs and festivals in America and around the \nworld: the JVC Jazz Festival in New York\, The Bakery in Los Angeles\, The Kennedy Center and \nLincoln Center jazz series\, the Toronto and Edinburgh jazz festivals\, and the \nMoscow Center for the Performing Arts. \n \nTICKETING & RESERVATION INFO:  \nReservations for the Captain’s Room (private dining room) can be reserved for parties of 12-24 guests. For more info contact info@venkmans.com. Purchasing a General Admission ticket does not guarantee a seat/table.  \nAdditional reservations are not required if a table\, booth or banquette have been purchased via Big Tickets.  \nBar area and patio seating is reserved on a first-come\, first-serve basis.
