    Da Camera of Houston presents Geri Allen Trio with Gary Bartz, Saxophone, Saturday, March 19, 2011; at 8:00 PM, in Cullen Theater, Wortham Theater Center.

    Pianist Geri Allen (pictured) makes her long-awaited first appearance on Da Camera’s jazz series. A recent recipient of the Guggenheim Fellowship Award for Music Composition, Allen was the first woman and youngest person to win the prestigious Danish Jazzpar Prize.

    Veteran saxophonist Gary Bartz played with Art Blakey, Charles Mingus and Miles Davis before launching a distinguished career as a bandleader

    “Her voicings were rich, resonant and complex; her touch was declarative but supple… genuinely steeped in a spirit of exuberance” – The New York Times

    "The resurrgence of Bartz, an alto and soprano saxophonist who made his mark three decades ago, is cause for celebration...the soul of a modern master." -- Entertainment Weekly

    The jazz series also includes Tierney Sutton Band, Anat Cohen, Stefon Harris and Blackout, Lionel Loueke and the supergroup WATTS with Jeff "Tain" Watts, Nicholas Payton, Christian McBride and David Sanchez.
