Nick Finzer - J.J. Johnson Centennial at The Nash Jazz Club

The Nick Finzer - J.J. Johnson Centennial Celebration at The Nash Jazz Club @thenashjazz April 13, 2024.

The audience immersed itself in an extraordinary concert experience that brought to life the musical legacy of the legendary J.J. Johnson. It was a heartfelt tribute to one of Finzer’s musical heroes. J.J. Johnson, a trailblazer on the trombone, revolutionized the instrument much like Charlie Parker did for the saxophone. His ability to seamlessly translate the clarity, precision, and velocity of bebop onto the trombone, while maintaining a distinctive sound, is unparalleled. Drawing inspiration from J.J.’s vast catalog, the group explored new musical territories while paying homage to the jazz classics associated with J.J. Johnson's name.

On the evening:

  • Nick Finzer - trombone @nickfinzer

  • Renee Rosnes - piano @reneerosnes

  • Rufus Reid - bass @reid_rufus

  • Lewis Nash - drums @lewisnashdrums
