    The first half of the program includes Berklee Global Jazz Institute players, along with a few members of the Kimmel Center Youth Jazz Ensemble, performing new arrangements of Golson tunes, along with three veteran musicians: Robin Eubanks (trombone), Bill Pierce (saxophone), and Brian Lynch (trumpet). In the second half, Eubanks, Pierce and Lynch team up with rising star, 22-year-old pianist and recent Julliard graduate, Kris Bowers, and his trio joining the horn section. Bowers recently received the top award in the Thelonious Monk Institute of Jazz’s 25th anniversary gala at Washington’s Kennedy Center.
