| Berklee Presents Swingin’ in the Fens with Ron Mahdi Summertime brings more than just the sun, heat, and Red Sox fans, it also brings Swingin' in the Fens to Boston! Held in the Fenway neighborhood of Boston, this year's concert will feature Berklee alumnus and professor Ron Mahdi. As a bassist, recording artist, and clinician, Mahdi has performed with a myriad of incredible artists like Kevin Eubanks, Roy Hargrove, Stanley Jordan, and the man Chet Baker himself! Mahdi has also had the opportunity to tour Europe, Asia, Central America, and the US, as well as recorded for Jay Branford, Consuelo Candelaria, Yoron Israel, Walter Beasley, and more. Presented by Berklee College of Music, the Fenway Civic Association, and the City of Boston Parks and Recreation Department, this free outdoor concert will take place in Ramler Park at 120 Peterborough Street on July 16 at 6:30pm. In case of rain, don't fret! You can still make the concert on July 23. See you there for a brilliant combination of sun and jazz in the Fenway! write your comments about the article :: © 2014 Jazz News :: home page |
