| Dave Holland Conducts Fall Residency with Steve Nelson Jazz bassist Dave Holland, Visiting Artist-in-Residence, returns to New England Conservatory September 20 for a fall residency that includes concerts and masterclasses. He will be joined by vibraphonist Steve Nelson in one performance and one class, both on Wednesday the 21st. He will coach students who perform his music in concert, on Thursday the 22nd. The bassist, bandleader and composer, who was a full-time member of the NEC faculty from 1987 to 1990 and was awarded an honorary degree in 2003, renewed his relationship with the Conservatory last year. As Visiting Artist-in-Residence, he will conduct two residencies each year, one in the fall semester and one in the spring. Vibraphonist Steve Nelson, a Pittsburgh native and graduate of Rutgers University, is a member of the Dave Holland Quintet and has recorded three discs as leader of his own band. write your comments about the article :: © 2005 Jazz News :: home page |
