Happy Birthday to Ornette Coleman! Coleman was an alto saxophonist who helped push the boundaries of what jazz could be in the late 60s. His album, "The Shape of Jazz to Come" is a quintessential "free" jazz album, free from strict forms and melodies from the bebop era of the 40s and 50s. Here's to you, Ornette Coleman!

Definitely a highlight from the most recent IC Jazz Ensemble concert! “Bourbon Street Parade” played just like how they’d play it down in New Orleans!

Rest in Peace, McCoy Tyner, thank you for the incredible work. We can celebrate his life and legacy by listening to some of records of his like "The Real McCoy", and the famous Coltrane record "My Favorite Things"

An innovative member of the classic John Coltrane Quartet, few musicians have ever exerted as much influence as a sideman, but Tyner also had a long and consequential career leading bands of his own.
