Soul on Jazz: Henry Johnson Big Band featuring Chris Foreman, conducted by Johnny Pate, with special guest Nancy Wilson.
Guitarist Henry Johnson's tenure with Joe Williams, Nancy Wilson and Ramsey Lewis were foreshadowed by his years in the gospel and R&B circuit. This concert matches Johnson's abilities with Chris Foreman's passionate discourse on the organ and the great talents of legendary arranger, conductor and former Chicagoan Johnny Pate. Pate will conduct several of his well-known scores, adding the regal style of longtime collaborator and legendary jazz vocalist Nancy Wilson.
