Christian McBride is the premier bassist on today's jazz and pop scene. The first choice as collaborator for everyone from Sting and Billy Joel to Sonny Rollins and Pat Metheny, he is first and foremost an outstanding bandleader and composer.

In 2008 he premiered his major original work "The Movement Revisited," a musical meditation with chorus and orchestra on the personalities and philosophies of the Civil Rights Movement, in honor of the 40th anniversary of its peak. He continues to excel in a variety of other bandleading contexts and is quite simply without peer on the instrument. Join us as Christian McBride and his band bring “bad, bad funky jazz” to Staller’s Recital Hall.
