Joel has been an agent for some of the biggest legends in jazz: Elvin Jones, Pharoah Sanders, McCoy Tyner, Ornette Coleman and many others. Through Jazz Point, we became friends, and this friendship eventually led to this invitation to come and play jazz in America. It was my first time playing and visiting America, playing with American musicians and bands. There is something quite special about being an Ibicenco jazz musician arriving in New York to play jazz, in the place where so much of this music was born, developed and continues to live. So, here we go! My first concerts in New York and the Hamptons The first concert was on July 29th, with the Thomas Majcherski Quartet at the Hamptons Jazz Festival in Bridgehampton. The following days I was back in New York City, playing with the Eric Person Organ Trio at Albert\u2019s Bar in Times Square. From the quiet surroundings of the Hamptons to the middle of Manhattan in less than 24 hours, quite a change of scenery. Then, on August 1st, I returned to the Hamptons to play with Grammy award winner Wayne Escoffery Quartet in Sag Harbor. Playing alongside him and the band was another completely different experience. We had EJ Strickland on drums, Ugonna Okegwo on double bass, and Lawrence Fields on piano. A few days later, on August 5th, I played with the Patrick Cornelius Quartet in Bridgehampton, featuring Rudy Royston on drums. And then came the final two nights. Playing Smalls Jazz Club in Manhattan August 7th and 8th, at Smalls Jazz Club in Manhattan, a legendary club. I played with Ricky Ford\u2019s Quintet, together with an incredible band: Barry Altschul on drums, known for his work with Chick Corea and Paul Bley, and Mark Soskin and Jerome Harris, both of whom were part of Sonny Rollins\u2019 band for 20 years. Ricky Ford himself started his career playing in Charles Mingus 5tet, Duke Ellington Big Band and Lionel Hampton.
