Each year, students and professors in the University of Michigan jazz program move in and tear up the Ark stage in our Jazz Showcase, always welcoming a nationally known special guest. This year, that guest is a legendary talent—trumpeter Randy Brecker, who has helped shape the sound of jazz, R&B, and rock for more than four decades. You’ve probably heard Randy Brecker even if you don’t know it—his trumpet and flugelhorn performances have graced hundreds of albums by a huge range of artists from James Taylor, Bruce Springsteen, and Parliament/Funkadelic to Frank Sinatra, Steely Dan, Jaco Pastorius, and Frank Zappa. Here’s your chance to hear a jazz legend passing on his secrets to the next generation!
