great things just sort of happen at the last minute. This is one of
those things. On Saturday Sept. 6, Grammy-nominated New York
saxophonist Donny McCaslin will bring his trio to Fresno City College
for a workshop and concert. In addition to his trio, Donny plays with
several other “who’s who” NY bands, including the Maria Schneider Jazz
Orchestra and the Mingus Big Band. Here’s an excerpt from his bio:
Donny McCaslin waited until his sixth album to use the title In Pursuit
(released June 5 on Sunnyside). But the concept of “pursuit” –
single-minded devotion to a distant goal, marked by inventive
exploration – has characterized his music almost from the beginning.
