Description

Critically acclaimed jazz trumpeter Roy Hargrove has been to Funkytown (with his hip-hop fusion project RH Factor) and gone to Havana (with Crisol, his Grammy-winning collaboration with Cuban percussionists), but when he gets with his quintet it's like coming home. Playing standards and originals in a straightahead style, the band of longtime co-conspirators is tight enough to deliver the bright blasts of melody you crave on a winter's night and loose enough to swing. That's what we call just right. Student tickets for the late show are half-price.
