Jazz & Tapas at the Iridium

Iridium Jazz Club (map)

Selected By: rachel

Meet for a tapas dinner and drinks at the Iridium, while listening to the smooth jazz, with a Latin flair, of Eddie Palmieri & Bryan Lynch.

About the Eddie Palmieri/Bryan Lynch Quartet
A prominent voice in Jazz and Afro-Caribbean music for two decades as a player and composer, trumpeter Brian Lynch releases his masterwork to date on Simpatico, an effervescent collaboration with Latin icon and piano innovator Eddie Palmieri.

Matching him is an all-star cast, primarily long-time Lynch and Palmieri associates, who execute immaculately and solo at grand heights of instrumental derring-do. Propelling them are extraordinary rhythm sections with such world class Latin and Cuban drummers as trapsetters Dafnis Prieto and Robby Ameen, congueros Giovanni Hidalgo and Pedro Martinez, and percussionists Pete Rodriguez, Little Johnny Rivero, and Marvin Diz, and bassists Boris Kozlov, Ruben Rodriguez, and Luques Curtis. The brass and reed players—Woods, Donald Harrison, Gregory Tardy, Conrad Herwig, Mario Rivera, and Yosvany Terry—all navigate both genres proficiently, as do pianist-organist Edsel Gomez, a regular with David Sanchez and Don Byron and a Palmieri disciple, and guitar virtuoso Adam Rogers.

Information
Tickets are $41 (including service charges) on sale here (TicketWeb). Meet-up RSVP closes on March 11 to ensure that I can get everyone's names to the manager & get a table for the group. The show starts at 8:30, but admission is only guaranteed until 8:15PM, so we'll meet up at the club at 8:00.

    Hi all,

    I received a notification that the show is now scheduled to start 30 minutes earlier at 8:00pm - so I guess we will need to meet at 7:30pm?

    Hey guys! I didn't get an email about that, so I'm glad you wrote it on the wall! I'll update the time... I did make sure they set aside seats for us that are together. Try to make sure you're there at least by 7:45 if not 7:30, so that you don't lose your seat. See you tomorrow, I'm really looking forward to it!!
