Classic. Classy. Class. Just imagine that the music of the streets, dive bars, dumpy 4

story walk-ups grew up to appear in the course of study of universities. Got Grammy

awards. Filled movie sound tracks. And developed creative innovation admired the

world over. Performed by class acts, like Duke, Count, Ella, even Sinatra. Then on to

Miles, Chick, Keith, Horace. Whew!

Well, wanting to take a small place in that world, we are bringing our own “class act” to

The Muse for you to hear how exciting the classic stuff still is to this very day.

The Ron LeGault quintet, featuring Harry Drabkin and guest artist MaryLynn Gillaspie, is

an assemblage of trumpet/sax plus rhythm that today is still considered the “classic”

jazz grouping. Energy, soul, drive, texture, pulse, groove.

Ron’s groups have swung the St Julien for the past 13 years; Harry’s mastery of his sax

goes back to his Berklee faculty days; Close your eyes and Derek’s trumpet is Lee

Morgan’s spirit; Drew’s musicianship weaves a texture, not just a beat, and nobody

plays “in the pocket” like Todd. Then, there is the real class: MaryLynn’s unique way of

making you feel what each song is really all about.

So, c’mon out and hear for yourself. Get in the groove while we are up there wailin’

away like there is nothing else that matters!
