CMA Commission Final Encore November 5th, 2025

I’m excited to present the final encore performance of my Chamber Music America New Jazz Works commission for octet at the Smalls Jazz Club in NYC! Featuring Dave Smith (trumpet), John Ellis (tenor sax), Nick Vayenas (trombone), Mike Moreno (guitar), Helen Sung (piano), Peter Slavov (bass), and Julian Miltenberger (drums). Sets at 9:00 and 10:30pm!

I highly recommend buying tickets in advance, as Smalls always sells out before the day of the concert:
