What would jazz sound like if it lacked a drummer? Fortunately, we’ll never have to find out! Choppin’ Wood will feature legendary local jazz drummer and music educator Dr. Rich MacDonald. From the early days of traditional through swing, Latin, and funk styles, the performance will focus on music written and performed by some of the greatest jazz drummers past and present.
“Choppin’ Wood” takes place in Page Theatre on Sunday, April 25, at 3 p.m. Seating is limited to 50 people and is open only to students, faculty, and staff. A livestream link will be available; contact A. Eric Heukeshoven at eheukesh@smumn.edu for details.
