UCI Students Only: Joshua Redman Quartet

Renowned saxophonist Joshua Redman brings his second Blue Note album, Words Fall Short, to life in concert. This exceptional album serves as the introduction of his new quartet featuring pianist Paul Cornish, bassist Philip Norris, and drummer Nazir Ebo, which was formed as a working band for the world tour behind the saxophonist’s 2023 label debut where are we.

As the quartet performed steadily on the road, Redman felt a vibe developing and was inspired to bring them into the studio to record a set of music he had composed during the pandemic that embraced the shifting moods of wistfulness, sadness, and resolve, including the stunning opening track “A Message To Unsend.”

Don’t miss this evening of exceptional music and storytelling.
