The University Saxophone Studio, in partnership with Chateau Development LLC, is proud to present legendary saxophonist/woodwind artist Bob Sheppard in concert with the University Jazz Faculty.
Some musicians’ careers are easily pigeonholed. Not so Bob Sheppard’s. For more than four decades, the multi-instrumentalist has played on countless sessions with an astounding crop of A-list jazz giants—among them Chick Corea, Freddie Hubbard, Michael and Randy Brecker, Mike Stern, Herbie Hancock, Kurt Elling, Dianne Reeves, Lyle Mays, John Beasley and Steps Ahead—and artists within several other genres. He’s also recorded and toured as a leader, contributed to hundreds of movie and TV soundtracks, served as an educator and more.
This concert is FREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC.
