While at Juilliard, pursuing a degree in clarinet, Dan Block divided his time between jam sessions in the New York loft scene and playing in the Juilliard Orchestra under the baton of such luminaries as Leonard Bernstein and Zubin Mehta. Block has performed and recorded with outstanding vocalists including Bobby Short, Rosemary Clooney, and Tony Bennett.

Chris Flory played his first gig on the guitar at the age of thirteen, and later joined Scott Hamilton’s quartet, eventually participating in recordings for Concord Jazz and many overseas tours, and playing in Benny Goodman’s sextet. Drummer Tom Melito grew up around jazz legends Bobby Hackett, Stan Getz, and Dave McKenna, and went on to study at The Berklee School of Music and to play around the country and the world with some of the greats of jazz. Bassist Lee Hudson played and toured with many musicians including Junior Cook, Bill Hardman, Lou Donaldson, Dizzy Gillespie, and Charles Davis, and has performed throughout North and South America and most of Europe as well as in many major New York jazz clubs including Birdland, Small’s, and The Blue Note.

Special guests Jon and Alec Manasse will join Dan Block for a triple clarinet feature!
