The Palladium’s new season kicked off with a syncopated dose of Brazilian jazz, courtesy of La Lucha and a great Nate Najar quartet featuring John Lamb, Jeff Rupert and the great D.C. drummer, Chuck Redd.
The show celebrated the 50th anniversary of Jazz Samba– the Grammy winning album by Charlie Byrd and Stan Getz.
More than 400 jazz lovers gave the show repeated ovations. WUSF-Radio jazzman Bob Seymour did the introductions. Downstairs at a members reception, the great pianist Pat Cole Henry, recreated his old lounge piano days.The show was also a kickoff of the Palladium’s new “Friends With Benefits” membership program.
