Details: | Bassist, composer, and 2022 NEA Jazz Master Stanley Clarke is a peerless innovator and a five-time GRAMMY winner who brought new prominence to the electric bass in jazz and was a primary developer of jazz fusion as a founding member of the iconic band Return to Forever with the late Chick Corea. He returns to open the 2024-25 Season in duet with piano virtuoso Hiromi.
After the triumph of his 2010 debut Water and follow-up Be Good, Porter broke through to mainstream stardom with his Blue Note debut Liquid Spirit, winning the 2013 GRAMMY for Best Jazz Vocal Album. He repeated the GRAMMY and chart success of Liquid Spirit with 2016s Take Me to the Alley and has released a string of highly personal projects including 2017's Nat King Cole Me, 2020s All Rise, and his most recent session, 2023s Christmas Wish, offering Porters inimitable takes on beloved holiday classics.
Raised in the hardscrabble city of Bakersfield, the budding vocalist grew up with seven siblings who all sang and worked in their mothers skid row mission. Growing up around rollicking tent revivals offered ideal training for his future career as a master musical storyteller. Porter brings the same soul-stirring authority to jazz settings, revealing powerful truths with heart and grace. Dont miss this season highlight performance. |
