Newport Jazz part 2

Last Sunday I attended the Newport Jazz Festival for first time. It was an incredible experience. Three stages, with jazz artists performing simultaneously throughout the day. This show features those artists that we got the chance to see at the Festival. They run the gamut from jazz legends, Herbie Hancock and Sonny Rollins to newcomers Esperanza Spaulding and Lionel Loueke. Perhaps that best performance for me was the Chris Potter Underground. The amazing tenor sax player was seen all day playing with nearly every act, running from one stage to the next. (due to technical problems in the studio, the Newport feature starts halfway into the show).

Check out these links to read my blog entry about the Newport Jazz Fest, and to see my photo gallery. If you have pictures from the jazz fest, I invite you to upload them to the gallery.
