 The great Alvin Carter Project

 

and
 the great Steve Davis Quartet 

Ron Carter and Ethan Iverson

 Yesterday saw the legendary Ron Carter and Ethan Iverson presented by the Hartford Jazz Society
Although I remember taking a music appreciation class my knowledge of Jazz greats is mediocre, but I do know what I like. Mr. Carter, the bass player, lived up to his legendary moniker by playing with brilliance and soul, and Mr. Iverson was out standing himself.  Below are sketches I did while sitting further back at the concert.
