Last Saturday (13 April) Detroit's native son, the alto saxophonist, Charles McPherson was honored at the Detroit Institute of Arts. His appearance included a conversation with Mark Stryker, music critic for the Detroit Free Press. Mr. McPherson spoke about his early years in Detroit as a young student musician and emerging jazz saxophonist. He spoke of the influence of the Detroit pianist and educator Barry Harris. See the link below for details about Mr. McPherson's exciting performance with his quartet that evening.
