This concert is free and open to the public.

Please join Johnson County Landmark (Damani Phillips, director) and the Jazz Repertory Ensemble (Curtis Taylor, director) in a join concert featuring our spring guest artist Benny Green on piano. Green has been a musical force to be reckoned with over the past 3 decades. He has played alongside a host of jazz music’s legends, including Art Blakey, Ray Brown, Betty Carter, Freddie Hubbard and Christian McBride to name but a few. Forged on the bandstand with many of jazz music’s luminaries, Green’s musical charisma and hard-swinging style are guaranteed to make this a concert not to be missed. Appropriate for all ages.
