The Arts Wayland Jazz Series will conclude this season at 4 pm on Sunday, May 7 at First Parish in Wayland with Nica’s Dream Quartet. The vibrant Puerto Rican alto saxophonist Edmar Colon carries his luminescent lead lines above the firm footing of double-bassist Bruce Gertz, and the ever-subtle drummer Austin McMahan, with Neil Olmstead on keys. The deep swinging grooves of Horace Silver, Monk and Miles will contrast with sultry Brazilian sounds of Jobim/Gilberto. There’ll be no shortage of cool jazz standards in their repertoire. Thank you to the Lauren Dunne Astley Memorial Foundation and The First Parish in Wayland for their generous co-sponsorship of this event. There will be a reception with light refreshments immediately following the performance. Tickets can be purchased in advance here: Nica’s Dream Quartet – Arts Wayland
