“Civil Disobedience” is a project initiated by New York bassist David Ambrosio that showcases the works of progressive jazz composers from the late 1960s Blue Note Era. The featured composers include Bobby Hutcherson, Jackie McLean, Stanley Cowell, Harold Land, Joe Chambers, Duke Pearson, and James Spaulding. Remarkably, much of this music, created during a period of significant social change and civil unrest, remained unreleased for decades, preventing these compositions from being heard when they were originally written.

“Civil Disobedience”:
Donny McCaslin - tenor & soprano sax
Ingrid Jensen - trumpet
Bruce Barth - piano
David Ambrosio - bass
Victor Lewis - drums

This concert is free and open to the public; however, tickets are required. Tickets will be available beginning March 23, 2026.
