LAKEPORT, Calif. – The Third Friday Live series at the Soper Reese Theatre in Lakeport hosts the cool jazz vibe of the Dorian May Trio at 7 p.m. Friday, Nov. 21.
Tickets are $10 each.
The group consists of Dorian May on piano, his wife Dorothea May on bass and Tom Rickard on drums.
With sounds like those of Oscar Peterson, Bill Evans and Eddie Palmieri, Dorian May’s piano artistry shapes together classic, modern and Latin jazz.
He mixes in Bach harmony, world and poly rhythms and is equally at home in world music and classical music as he is with hard-swinging bebop, Cuban Salsa and down-home blues.
At his shows you will hear anything from classical to TV/movie themes, children’s tunes, traditional jazz, folk songs to Cuban boleros.
May’s diverse experiences in music include a degree in classical piano performance, keyboardist in a touring Emerson, Lake & Palmer tribute band, high-school band director, percussionist/accompanist at world music and jazz festivals, and currently leader and arranger for several Mendocino- and Sonoma-based jazz and Latin bands.
The Soper Reese Theatre is located at 275 S. Main St., Lakeport, 707-263-0577.
Tickets are available online at www.soperreesetheatre.com ; at the box office on Fridays from 10:30 to 5:30; and at The Travel Center, 1265 S. Main St., Lakeport, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday.
