Eric Schneider's Tribute to Benny Goodman
Friday, May 1st, 2009
Warren Park
6601 N. Western Ave
Chicago, IL
All City Jazz Band @ 7:00 pm
Tribute to Benny Goodman @ 7:30 PM
Eric Schneider, one of Chicago's premier clarinetist, pays homage to the King of Swing, Benny Goodman in a concert with a special band he is putting together solely for this event, a group that will include Ron Dewar on tenor sax.
In addition to the influence Goodman had on Schneider's development as a musician, Eric actually had a chance to sit in with Benny in the early 1980s at a neighborhood festival here in Chicago. For his tribute he will play some of Benny's charts, and if one thing is certain it's sure to swing.
