Let’s Take the Coltrane

In a much anticipated encore, The Four Strangers Quartet come together to explore more of the exciting music of jazz saxophonist, composer and legend John Coltrane. Join these four outstanding players as they find themselves in a “Moment’s Notice” navigating the “Giant Steps” down into the cool green depths of a “Central Park West” mindscape, where they reimagine and explore their favorite Coltrane compositions.  

Featuring Tim McCord (tenor saxophone, piano), John Zappa (trumpet, flugelhorn), Mike Sharfe (acoustic bass) and Phillip Tipton (drums)
