| Bill Mays and His Trio at La Belle Epoque La Belle Epoque music series 2008 is pleased to welcome perennial Toronto favourite Bill Mays on Wednesday, January 9, 2008 in his first engagement in this exciting new space. With deep roots in jazz, gospel, pop and classical music, Bill Mays' eclectic, prolific career as pianist, composer and arranger spans five decades. Heard on hundreds of recordings, TV and movie sound tracks, Bill's concert and studio credits include a who's who of modern music, from Benny Golson to Gerry Mulligan to Sarah Vaughan. Joining Bill Mays are two revered Canadian rhythm section players with whom he has appeared many times in the past, most notably on record Live from the Montral Bistro, Neil Swainson on bass and Terry Clarke on drums. With each musician poised to play to their best advantage in the new performance space of La Belle Epoque, this is certain to be an evening of music making of the highest caliber, and one not to be missed. write your comments about the article :: © 2008 Jazz News :: home page |
