The Cornbread\, as he often refers to himself\, has been playing blues\, boogie-woogie and rock n roll piano for Twin Cities audiences for decades…roughly 7 of them now. Yes\, Cornbread opened for The King (Elvis). Yes\, a young Cornbread appeared on MN’s first recorded rock & roll record (with Augie Garcia). Yes\, Cornbread has been the recipient of numerous prestigious (Blues Hall of Fame\, Sally Award\, etc.) recognitions. Yes\, Cornbread is Jimmy Jam’s dad. \nBut\, the fact that Cornbread still holds down weekly and monthly gigs across the Twin Cities at restaurants like The Loring Pasta Bar and Hells Kitchen\, as well as playing local music venues\, weddings\, churches\, old folks homes and private events as often as he can\, is what might just make him the most special artist in our artist-rich community. \nPlease join us as we celebrate the holidays with a 98 year old living legend\, James Samuel ‘Cornbread’ Harris\, Sr.

SUMMARY:Jazz Rock Fusion of the 1970's and Today
DESCRIPTION:A blend of great classics by Chick Corea\, Herbie Hancock\, Billy Cobham\, Carlos Santana\, Pat Metheny and other legends of the golden era of jazz/rock/fusion\, plus new original music by members of Global Jazz Collegium. \nGlobal Jazz Collegium is an assembly of local and international musicians founded by the Twin Cities based guitarist and composer Pavel Jany. While focusing on creating new original music\, the group also honors the body of music created by Chick Corea\, Herbie Hancock\, Jaco Pastorius\, Billy Cobham\, Carlos Santana\, Pat Metheny and other legends of jazz/rock/fusion.\nGlobal Jazz Collegium has released two albums and performed at the Selby Jazz Festival\, Twin Cities Jazz Festival\, MN State Fair and at many local jazz venues and concert series.\nAbout the founder of Global Jazz Collegium:\nPavel Jany’s diversity and eclecticism in his guitar playing and composing have no boundaries\, and his long musical journey encompasses many various styles. His classical guitar and compositional backgrounds were enriched by influences from East European Romani music of his native Czechoslovakia\, to the works of jazz fusion guitarists Al Di Meola\, Pat Metheny\, Ralph Towner\, Biréli Lagrène\, and many Brazilian guitar masters. His three year stay in West Africa and his travels to Brazil and other South American countries deepened his interest in Afro-Brazilian and Latin music.\nPavel Jany has founded several international jazz projects on the Twin Cities’ music scene\, including Brazilian jazz ensemble “Ticket To Brasil”\, instrumental trio “Talking Strings”\, and jazz/fusion group “Global Jazz Collegium”. He is a co-founder of Duo CORDA and he occasionally performs and records with other local and international artists.
