Jimmy Farace is a dedicated jazz baritone saxophonist, composer, and educator based in the vibrant city of Chicago. Farace is known for collaborating with acclaimed musicians and presenting innovative projects that blend jazz tradition with a unique, thematic approach. His compositions have been described as “delightfully elegant, flirtatiously succulent” (Exclusive Magazine) and tone has been celebrated as “big and sonorous – visceral while giving hints of Gerry Mulligan coolness” (Jazz Weekly). Farace firmly believes that music should be accessible to all, serving as a universal language that communicates themes and emotions shared by every human being.
This performance will feature Farace’s original compositions and arrangements for a jazz quartet, featuring a stellar lineup of highly acclaimed Chicago musicians. The ensemble comprises GRAMMY award-winning Clark Sommers on bass, Dana Hall on drums, and Kenny Reichert on guitar.
