"JAZZ GUITAR GIANTS" CELEBRATES THE MUSICIANS WHO TRANSFORMED SIX STRINGS INTO ONE OF JAZZ’S MOST EXPRESSIVE VOICES.

THE MUSE JAZZ COLLECTIVE PRESENTS: JAZZ GUITAR GIANTS | SUNDAY AUGUST 9

From the warm rhythm guitar of the swing era to the lyrical melodies of Wes Montgomery, the fiery innovation of Pat Martino, the harmonic brilliance of Joe Pass, and the boundless creativity of Pat Metheny, the story of jazz guitar is one of constant imagination and reinvention.

Jazz Guitar Giants celebrates the musicians who transformed six strings into one of jazz’s most expressive voices. Over the course of the evening, you’ll hear music spanning nearly a century of jazz history, exploring how each generation of guitarists built upon those who came before while discovering a sound all their own.

Whether you’re a lifelong jazz fan or hearing these masters for the first time, join us for an unforgettable evening celebrating the artistry, creativity, and enduring legacy of the jazz guitar.

THE COLLECTIVE: We are a community of Bay Area Jazz lovers, musicians, and advocates seeking to awaken more beauty, love, and justice for the world through Jazz.

THERE ARE TWO CONCERTS ON SUNDAY AUGUST 9:
The first concert starts at 5:30 PM and the second concert starts at 7:30 PM.
Each concert will be at the Vineyard and will be 90 minutes of iconic music. Doors open 15 minutes prior. You can enjoy dinner before or after the concert or you are free to bring your own food or drink from any of the amazing restaurants within one or two blocks of the venue. Plan to bring cups, wine cork, etc as these items are not available on-site. Anyone drinking alcohol must be 21yrs or older.

- There will be a Q&A at the end of the performance, so as you listen think of some questions about the music, the musicians, the history, the songwriters, or anything else that comes to mind.

- Lastly, be sure to join the collective by subscribing to our newsletter and tag us on social media.

Here's a few of our favorite restaurants within easy walking distance of the venue:
- Cafe Napolina - 1950 Grant Street | Ste B
- Taqueria Los Dos Gallos - 1950 Grant Street | Ste A
- I Love Teriyaki & Sushi - 1980 Galindo Street
- Aung Burma - 2151 Salvio Street
- Naan n Curry - 2068 Salvio Street

There are two parking garages on Salvio Street- one near the Vineyard and one near Skipolini's Pizza and Concord Avenue.

THE VENUE: The Vineyard is on Todos Santos Plaza in downtown Concord. This concert venue is tied to the history of jazz through Dave Brubeck - who grew up on this site in Concord - and was one of the first musicians to fight for a racially integrated band.

See you soon!
