2024 Chicago Jazz Festival
Eddie Henderson

Sunday, September 1, 2024 | 5:25pm - 6:10pm

Jay Pritzker Pavilion
201 E. Randolph Street | Chicago

Forgive the cliche, but if anyone deserves to be called a "musician's musician," it's the effortlessly wide-ranging trumpeter Eddie Henderson. During his 50-plus years in jazz – he took several years off as a practicing physician – he has run a gamut of styles ranging from hard bop to fusion (he was a stalwart in Herbie Hancock's Mwandishi) to crossover sounds and back again.

In recent years, Henderson has added to his laurels as a member of the popular post-bop supergroup the Cookers, whose members include his crony of more than four decades, the impeccable pianist George Cables. Henderson's sterling reputation among musicians is reflected in the all-star composition of his quintet, which in addition to Cables features the great alto saxophonist (and fellow Jazz Messengers alumnus) Donald Harrison, bassist Gerald Cannon and drummer Mike Clark.

2024 Chicago Jazz Festival:
Charlie Sepulveda

Friday, August 30, 2024 | 6:25pm - 7:25pm

Jay Pritzker Pavilion
201 E. Randolph Street | Chicago

As suggested by the title of his popular album, "This is Jazz," trumpeter Charlie Sepúlveda is as strongly committed to the sounds of hard bop and swing as he is to the Latin sounds he was raised on – styles with ties to Puerto Rico including bomba, plena and danza. Born in the Bronx, where he performed in his cousin Eddie Palmieri's band, Sepúlveda has for many years lived and taught in Puerto Rico, where he put together his long-running band the Turnaround.

His sound on the horn is "miraculously melodious and songful" (Latin Jazz Network). And when his wife Natalia Mercado is featured on vocals, the music attains a soaring romantic intensity. The band also features pianist Emanuel Rivera, vibraphonist Jean Luis Treboux, bassist Gabriel Rodriguez, drummer Francisco Alcalá and congas player Gadwin Vargas.

The is programmed by the Jazz Institute of Chicago and the Jazz Festival Committee and produced by .

Join us Monday, October 7th, for “An Evening About Les” - an exclusive event with Chris Lentz, Les Paul’s longtime friend who chronicled Les’ life and career through personal and up-close photographs, and Michael Braunstein, third-generation manager of Les Paul now serving as the head of the Les Paul Foundation. The special event is a rare opportunity to hear about the legend and ask questions to the two people who knew him best.

Chris Lentz, more than just a photographer, was a dear friend of Les Paul. He intimately documented Les Paul’s life, from his performances at Fat Tuesdays in the 1980s, to the Iridium in the 1990s and 2000s, and even his personal life and travels. His photographs capture the essence of Les Paul, the man behind the legend, before his passing in 2009.

The ‘Les Paul Thru the Lens’ exhibit, following its successful run at the Rock and Roll of Fame, will be at the Iridium from October 7th through November 18th. Ticket holders for the respective show on the night will enjoy free admission at 6:30pm. And for those who wish to attend the Q&A session only, admission is completely FREE, ensuring everyone can be a part of this special event (limited six tickets per customer).

“Les Paul Thru the Lens” is an exclusive traveling gallery of photos that offer a unique glimpse into the life and career of Les Paul, the inventor, musician, and icon. The exhibit features 24 gallery-framed black-and-white photographs, including Les’ life from a small child to his later career. It includes rare personal family photos, Les behind-the-scenes, famous friends, and photos of the man with a larger-than-life personality and amazing curiosity. Guests can follow along while viewing each photograph with web-initiated storylines. From Les’ inventions born in his famous Hollywood garage studio to his popular reality TV show and appearances with Mary Ford, the exhibit allows fans to see Les like never before!
